That looks awesome!! I’m surprised with the air control. I’m impressed. I love the rustler 4x4 the new ones come with the extreme heavy duty kit, which I think might be sturdier than the a couple of aluminum parts on the ultimate. But idk. 🤷♂️
I would think that the heavy duty upgrades and the ultimate upgrades would make the car handle fairly similar, as for durability I'm curious which one would be the better option since I've had a great experience with Traxxas's heavy duty parts.
Cool , I made my own version of the rustler ultimate by adding some of the parts onto my existing car. I also put in a spectrum motor and esc , quite happy with it , pulls wheelies with the 17 tooth pinion
Right on! I've been considering going up to the 17t, I might order one in the future to see the difference it makes, but so far I'm really happy with the 12t.
Hey man, nice vid! Have you had any issues with the stock driveshafts on this bad boy? Ive got a Rustler VXL 2WD, stock shafts blew apart a couple of times, as well as the Traxxas metal CV's.
@@MadSpasticRC Yeah, Traxxas metal CVs busted apart, pins came loose and then it sheared off one of the ball "cups" right in half. Installing the MIPs tonight.
I didn't build it, I do have plans to build one in the future. The ramp in this video a FreshPark quarter pipe I had sitting around from when I used to skateboard.

This thing looks super durable. Excellent vid. I want one.
Appreciate it! If you can find one used in good condition I think that would be the best route, since $529 is pretty steep for what it is.

I turned one into a 6s blue ultimate! I got sledge hammers on it now. I’m hoping that 4s will be the sweet spot.

Thanks! No, I haven't had any issues. That's odd that you would be having issues with the metal ones

@@chrisdean8235 You shouldn't have anymore issues, I've heard good things about MIP
Did u make that ramp? I looks like it is nice and mobil to put in and out of your truck. Can u do a video on your ramp build?

Massive air wow!
Just got mine an hour ago. It's a little beast.
Been happy with mine so far, it's warmed up since I made this video so I had to add a heatsink and fan to the motor.
What battery are u running
