Hello, I have a raptor as well and I would like to know what functions it comes with if I buy the Bluetooth module. In case you have one and can upload a video showing those characteristics.
You can change your break rate, tsm rate, and throttle position. I will try and get a video out using the Bluetooth! Thank you for the awesome comment!
I would recommend if your driving in rough terrain drive it on 2s if your just driving on normal road then 3s because 3s on rough terrain the motor has to work more and since 3s has a lot of power it can overheat the vxl esc and motor
Even on the street, 3s will overheat it halfway through the battery. Still a great truck I'll be putting the 540 in mine run it on 3s and 4s occasionally
Not gonna lie this is one of the best handling trucks traxxas has made. Just unfortunate that they put the vxl 3s system in it. Should have atleast had the 4s 540. On 3s the 3500 hates life.
@JustBashinit_Rc I picked mine up for $379, or else I wouldn't have bought it. Traxxas had a flash sale on Amazon right after Christmas, so I grabbed it. I would have never paid the $500 or more it was going for. Either way great video man.
dude your property is sick! such a good spot for rc! loved the vid :)
Thank you!!
Wow! What a superb video! And the scenery of your place is amazing! I wanted one of these RCs for a while, and now I'm getting one! Cheers 🍻 👏🏼
Thanks a lot! I appreciate it! The raptor r is a lot of fun to drive for sure and handles well.
People love complaining about the smallest things. This video was pure joy and still mentioned pros and cons.
My R has been running fine since release
I would agree. There always good and bad about every rc.
I've been eyeing this thing but now with the Maxx slash dropped idk 😬 great first run!
If I would have known that maxx slash was dropping I would have waited! Still a great truck. Thanks a lot!
Brother, you must live in Kansas or Nebraska or close to these, flat farm land everywhere, I lived in both for a while. Kool Video!
Pretty close! Minnesota actually! Thanks for watching!!
@@JustBashinit_RcI was gonna say Iowa because that’s where I am and there’s farm land every where
You live in a beautiful area
Thank you! Plenty of space for rcs!

@@JustBashinit_Rc perfect, what about temperature and battery?
@csmendieta20 if you ad those sensors yes you can monitor all of that.

Good point. I think with some good fans it could definitely help!
@ yeah vxl 3s heat sink would help out a lot

@@kick_then_shift stock gearing?
What kind of battery are you running?
I was just running a traxxas 5000 3s
But I use gens ace, lectron mainly
Awesome run!
How much run time do you get out of the Traxxas 3s 5000 with the raptor r
@jonathanmorales4566 around 12 minutes for sure
3s?
Yes it is!
Thay need to come out with one That has a cool Dodge body on it it
This is a ford raptor r, a dodge or Chevy body would be pretty cool!
Yes you're correct you better use

I definitely agree on the 4s system especially with the price tag.
