    I really enjoy your videos Kev!! Of course we’re all not gonna agree with everything. I disagree with the video headline that this is the best RC of the year. Maybe most durable. But for $700 you get a plastic geared servo, short shocks that aren’t the right size and overpriced wheels that have no grip. It doesn’t drive very well as far as an SCT should. Still thanks for the entertainment factor! You really do know how to test these trucks for their breaking point! Even if it breaks in 5 minutes!

    Kevin I just learned something new with the Losi Promoto MX. If you tilt the receiver forward a little bit on the mount just twist it so the left top corner is facing forward. basically leaning at a forward angle the throttle will not cut when hitting the big jumps at the skate park. You lean it forward enough just to trick it into thinking it's still not past its wheelie tipping point. It works like a charm. We learned this while we were racing them and jumping them at the amain hobby race track. You put it on offroad mode it works best.

    Stick a piece of foam from the parts in-between the shock tower and it will stop it from over compressing. It works wonders for my slash. I never broke a bumper again.

    Oh yeah bro . Sweet . I spray them down and use a powerful blower , but not too powerful . I was using the air compressor which is more surgical blowing , lol . I was doing yard work one day and had a craftsman blower with the big battery and used it after spraying some silicone oil and it dries so nice and …dry . Seems like it keeps it fresh looking . The wheel to center area and the fin on the Kraton 1/8 even looks new with scratches . Everyone knows this already probably .

    Great review of the Traxxas Maxx Slash! Your detailed testing really highlights its strengths and that one big issue. I must say, the moment it flew off was truly impressive! 🚗💨 Thanks for the thorough review!

  • @BIGLIFTDODGE
    @BIGLIFTDODGE 7 месяцев назад +1

    Hey Kevin. Watch the traxxas video, and within the first 20 seconds, you will see what's missing in the front suspension. (Lower shock mounts and springs for xmaxx)

  • @wonderbread3371
    @wonderbread3371 7 месяцев назад +1

    So, if we bought one and the ESC was faulty from the start will traxxas provide a replacement or are we assed out? Let's face it, the typical person is buying only one, and if this RC has a high rate of faulty electronics, is it worth buying?

    • @derekgardin1512
      @derekgardin1512 7 месяцев назад +1

      They will replace it. They might want you to send the motor too and they send back both new. It might have been the motor shorted out and fried the esc

  • @3s1kill

    My launch day UDR got the red light of death after a couple years and it turns out sometimes it isn't REALLY dead but when it throws an error code and Traxxas programs them to shut down and only they can disable the error codes

  • @MrGoat73

    Hey Kev, i wanted to upgrade my Senton to run at least 50mph. Do you think it can do it on 3s motor without overheating? I had an 80 amp esc and 3200kv motor from hobbywing. But it would only go about 41mph. And my motor went out. So im looking to replace it with a better ESC/MOTOR combo.
