I keep yelling BOOM at my broken RC car, but nothing happens, it's still broken. Kev, what am I doing wrong?
Don't try it on a broken marriage people just don't understand 😭😭 lol
Are you using a British accent?
Yea I do the same! What am I doing wrong Kev!
Early gang. Hope everyone reading this is having an awesome day, and if not don't worry too much. Things will get better eventually.
Amen
Same for you
It’s going better now this morning sucked but now good
I wish the same to you buddy, let's relax with some hobby content from Kevin the magnificent
Thanks bro
Ken, you definitely bring out the 17 year old in me,now 57! IM A LATE 80’S HORNET, clod buster, black foot and egress lover. Been out of the fun for many years but your channel has inspired me to pick up an X-MAX just yesterday. WOW!!! Love your channel all the way from New Jersey USA. Love the life size E-MAX too in your shop. Keep ‘em coming.
I still have my frog..........I got it when I was 14..........now I'm 49.........my brother had a hornet and a black foot..........good times
That was a fun one! I’ve tried the hub extenders from M2C, youre gonna find you break more steering components from the leverages, or at least I did
Kev, you can use just the inner race from an old bearing (the bearings for the diff actually work great) on your driveshaft cups to keep from breaking. They actually fit good enough they stay on without any glue or anything since the cup will spread slightly and become tight the the inner race. And with it on doesn’t get in the way of getting the driveshaft in or out.
I’ve had mine on for a while now and for a free mod, because we are have old bearings around, it’s great!
Amazing idea!
I've done a similar thing with some steel rings on my Kyosho that was eating driveshaft cups every month or two, had the same ones on for about a year now and they're still like new... great mod 👍
Never had to do this on the older models circa 2018/19 mine was solid
ko
Saw a good trick where you put a bit of rubber tube over the bottom of shock shafts to stop the suspension being able to compress all the way, which should stop the drive shafts popping out. Something I'm going to try too as it can damage the outdrive cup when it happens. Just upgraded them on mine as it happened on the rear. nearly lost my m2c drive shaft
This was an action packed video for sure, Thank you and all involved!
Literally the best youtube channel for rc nerds. Thanks kev for all that you do ! Couldn't tell you how much I've learend since I started watching your videos ! Much love from Canada !
AXI233021 Shock Bump Stop on the EXB could be THE solution. I have them on my 1:8 Kraton EXB below the shock boots to limit the overly generous uptravel of the suspension. Talion also has this problem. Would be nice if this could be tested in proper bashing.
Managed to get to a nice bmx park with my new xmaxx recently and it’s by far the most fun rc I’ve had, it flies 10-15 feet so gracefully and just lands perfectly no damage it does not want to break. Happy bashing Kev🍻.
Those kids are so lucky I have such good memories as a kid going to race meets. I used to love the Schumacher cats as a kid. 🥰
Never in my life did I think I would ever see a grown man give another grown man a spanking with a blown out rc tire. But here we are. I'm glad I got to see it it was hilarious. Next April fool's day.....
You're Welcome...
Vinnie's DumboRC X6 transmitter most likely wasn't malfunctioning. I think it's just that the throttle trim wasn't properly set. It was fun watching all the effort it took to destroy it though. 😆
My parents couldn’t afford to get me a big RC car but they made me the happiest kid when they got me a golden arrow 😃. It’s still working over 30 years later and survived me and my daughter and looking forward to seeing my granddaughter’s playing with it.
I learned the love of rc with the golden arrow too.
Pops had the red arrow.
Great memories.
Yes! I loved my Golden arrow also! I actually had to order a few sets of wheels & tire for mine... I wonder if those parts are still orderable?
Vinny needs to put a 4mm piece of fuel tubing on the shock rod for a bump stop. The kraton is notorious for popping the driveshafts on heavy compression. This will solve it.
Not only that, but have to adjust the droop screws or add them. I would do the droop screw first
Traxxas makes bump stops for the revo that'd be more durable than tubing.
I haven't had a problem with driveshafts popping out since I went to RPM control arms. I do, however, break shock stand offs with heavier shock oil, and I'd think a bump stop could cause a similar issue. IMO just get RPM arms.
Get an X max for me
its just Arrma bs their whole line up has problems one way or another.... its arrma junk. most say traxxas is overpriced but i think arrma is because your paying for garbage
Can confirm that this is a good vid to watch at 11:37 pm. Keep up the good work kev! 👍🏼
You truly are the RC king love watching your videos you make them fun to watch every time best channel on RUclips when it comes to RC hobby’s
The only part I seem to break on my Xmaxx is the front hub and hub carrier like you did. I’ve ordered the rpm front hubs and some rc 4wd aluminum hub carriers and will see how they hold up
The RPM front carriers are trash brother.... The Upgraded Traxxas HD ones are better
I like that brushless converted Nikko. I'm currently converting an old Radio Shack Tsauro-X to use modern 12mm hexed wheels and adjustable ball link steering.
I’m building a 1/5 outcast EXB, but I’ve been sick for a week now and it’s really exhausting. Hopefully I’ll get over this sickness and be out bashing soon. 😢
I'm sure golfers still cringe when they see Kev ripping around the golf course. Bloody brilliant video, just great entertainment 👏
for real
I've always found it interesting how hating on another hobby is a part of, in some cases central to, another hobby. For example, I white water kayak - we hate anything in the water with a motor (as well as those riding in or operating them). We also hate golfers who take gigantic plots of nature and then ride motorized scooters about while drinking beer (I've always admired this, if I am to be honest). I've also been involved in competitive cycling. Road cyclists hate mountain bikers. Time trialists hate sprinters. Riders hate casuals and cars and scooters and pedestrians. Getting involved now in RC cars and I am quite sensitive to this dynamic where some are builders of aluminum and carbon fiber bits (something that cuts across most hobbies), others don't like the building and simply want to break stuff (Talbot), others want to achieve a singular performance goal (speed runs), others just want a zen-like chill session (drifters), and so on and so forth. We are all so different, but exactly the same at the end of the day.
Hate to say it.. but yeah, good point.
Golfers and skateboarders
@@wangcockdickspecker622 and rollerbladers
Watching Kevs videos always puts me in a good mood. 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Hi Kevin. Instead of buying hingpins I like to use welding rods, cut to size and thread both ends to add nuts and washers.
ARC welding rods.
I did the same with some extra thick nails I got from the hardware store. My X-Maxx is NAILED together!
@@appye7994hard as nails nice tip thanks for sharing
What a beatiful location and sunset. Simply awesome. And the way, the both xmaxx losing their bodyshells are funny. Kev, i am going to be a follower of your channel✌🏼
The flapping at 19:27 seriously looks like some sort of catfight. Love it.
I did the RPM knuckle conversion and it's much better, and the inside bearings are larger.
Pop a small piece of fuel tube (end on) into both outdrives and it'll stop the driveshafts popping out
The problem with the Kraton is the droop screws. Have to either add some or adjust them to reduce the travel of the arms so nothing pops out 👍
Out🕷️
arrma just sucks man
Hey kev! loved the video and great content as always!! Sounds like the diff thats gone in my opinion.
That split shaft idea is great! Awesome vid again. Haha love the Boom Repairs
Light weight is the way to go! I have a rustler with rpm suspension parts and a 4000kv hobbywing system and it just keeps on running!
I wonder if I use a esc to control power to my servo so it use less power at fine then increase as I turn .
Thank you for the laughs and smiles! Great Video.
Rebuild, play till destroyed, rebuild again. Repeat till you run out of parts. Absolutely love it.
Thank you Ian and Kev for the shout out on the drive cup sleeves 👍
Had the same thing happen to me as Martin, slash 2wd vxl 2s dumbo radio went berserk after about an hour and then suddenly disconnected from the receiver and it was programmed correctly in the right mode
Kev, If you would put out a full list of Xmaxx upgrades you would recommend that have worked the best for the Xmaxx. If you have that already could you point me to it, Thank you, Love it
gotta love some good old bashes. even the music reminds me of all your videos. Really loved the vid, hadnt laughed so hard in a while😜
Hey kev if you ever get the chance to film the suspension while a tire is blown out and you are FINISHING IT that would be cool to watch the rpm arms and everything flexin 💪
If diff problems persist shims work, or I've seen a upgraded set from vitivon rc that might be worth a try (Haven't tried them myself).
Id like to see a pros and cons comparison vid to your ideal x maxx build
19:57 omg. I’m at work on lunch and now everyone is starring at me. I laughed so freaking hard. Absolutely love these videos.
Best part of this video for me is the Lad enjoying the afternoon with his Dad, then the BASHIIN!
Such a brutal Hit. The fact it still drove after that.. wow!
This is great vid, thanx mate, and ive also gotta say excellent filming and editing
You inspired me to put RC on my channel and get RC cars and I look forward to getting my first Xmaxx! I’m so glad I found you Kev I am a proud subscriber! Keep up the good work my friend!
Do it!!! Can’t get enough of good RC videos!!
kevvv can you do a review/bash on the stampede? i know its an old model and what not but but would be seriously entertaining. ive had 4 of em !
The smiles and laughter is what it is all about!
Beginning of video. Kevin: This is the word's best all around RC car. End of video. Also Kevin: broken xmax, broken xmax, broken xmax and another broken xmax. 😂
Looks like you had a blast. 😁 And don't worry, I'm a big fan of Traxxas! 👍
i really thought it was going in two like the other ones did XD
X-Maxx isn't exactly my first choice of name yet it's great to see you taking things to the MAXX Mr. Talbot.
I just hope the shocks are filled to the MAXX with the right shock fluid.
I think it might be time you did another little video about shocks involving internal spring vs. external.
A real analysis of what to expect.
that really isn't kevin's forte
woulndt worry about the traxxas cars, its arrma that cant hold up
"The more you destoy, the more pieces you have to pick up." best quote ever.
Kevin you are a riot Love your videos. Keep up the good work 😃
Anyone got any tips for getting charge back into cell 1 on a 4s lipo? Tried a NiMH charger and it put all the charge into cell 2. Battery for the bin?
Probably not the weight that killed the bearing it may have been the hub extension causing more leverage.
You gotta respect✊🏿 Kev’s editing nice.
BTW first guy to bend the M2C chassis brace .
That is an EXB edition ARRMA Kraton. Made for EXtreme Bashing. I'm surprised Vinnie has so many problems with it. They look absolutely epic out of the box though.
my lhs guy and myself have the same issue, he uses a mojave, but for some reason lately our driveshafts pop out
Need to shave off 1 mm from the end of the arm to stop the shafts from coming out. Also adjust the droop screws although extreme bashing won't help.
Lol thx for giving the controls to the little kid kev. My leg still hurts lol 😂 luv ur vids man ❤️ catch ya later
Claire is a real team player. I wouldn't let Kevin spray gravel, dirt, water, etc on me on a regular basis. Big thumbs up to Claire for being such a sweetheart.
thats creapy just sayin
I wince every time watching these, would love to see a cost of repair at the end of these bash sessions or in the description. great videos as always Mr Talbot thank you
If its not electronic it's dosint cost much at all he broke maybe 17 $ lol 😆
Lol, that was wayyyy more than $17. He broke the X-maxx’s chassis, front bulkhead, lower chassis brace, and blew out some tires that cost like $40 each.
And that’s just the stuff I can remember off the top of my head 😝
Dude this has to be one the most entertaining vids ever lol good ppl great humour
“Does it still work?”
LMAO. Kev, you’re the absolute best!
The last rc car I bought was from radio shack, so my rc knowledge is rather lacking and dated, but I love your videos and your energy
I had a golden arrow & a couple other radio shack rcs... its crazy what you can do with them now
Hey Kevin what gearing u running on the HW combo.thanks in advance and God bless
Stomping the controller had a very “Office Space” vibe going on.
Vinny is Mr. Super Patient. Kevin is such a pain. And that is why I love this channel. It gives me joy and entertainment.
what's a good upgrade should I get for my traxxas slash 2wd cuz write now it's all stock
Not so sure on that lower brace, I think that created a bit more damage than it prevented
Don't do this to your rc car/boat/helicopter/etc...
Most of what Kev does, unless you got money growing in the backyard. 😁
Everyone should grow money in their yard.
From canada
Yes,i think so, don’t hit the transmitter
The worst part is I break parts all the time and don’t drive half as crazy as kev. I simply don’t understand how his xmaxx can take so much abuse specifically the control arms cause mine break after much less abuse
@@9rpoolarisguy sometimes it's better to drive a bit more aggressive because the car becomes more stable
@@joesmith4494 I'm trying, haven't found the proper seeds yet...
So Kev. Old RC'r and still have a MP7.5 with a .28 and fixed centre diff. Fun. Also have an original Half8 but want it brushless. Can this be done?
Hi Kev, I love your videos. Do you mind getting an FTX outlaw 4wd brushless motor and check if it is a good dirt cheap rc car or not. Thankyou.
I’ve just been out with my rc car and I come home to this. What an amazing day🙂. Keep up the awesome videos
I NEED HELP i have stock traxxas stampede 2wd it is bit slow what i need upgrade first?
Can you lock the diffs in one of you xmaxx trucks? It would never get stuck and it would be like a super fast crawler.
Hahaha, oh man. I haven't laughed so hard at one of these videos until the XMaxx went head on with the Nikko. My god, this is pure comedy
Just trying to not burn out servo I'll try it and give my opinion if it works well or not
I wonder if you try out the traxxas widekit on your x maxx 😉.
I love IT!
My x maxx hast the same specs like his 😉
I've had the front driveshafts popping out of my BLX V5 Notorious and i'm really glad someone with good visibility on the net is putting Arrma with their nose in the shit, cause its unbelievable this obviously known issue still hasn't been fixed on the EXB's...you can't build a car and rely on your customers to make it reliable (yes Arrma, your diffs and their shimming, their lack of oil, the front driveshafts popping out, the weak servo, the stupid servo saver you can't tighted and have to dismantle and shim, ...)
You can fix it for 10 cents with nitro fuel tube
also you can tighten the servo saver by adding washers. or get basherqueen adjustable one.
@@calebworland967 you can fix everything, but If i wanted to be wrenching much more than I was bashing, I would've just bought a Kit kar in the first place! When you sell a RTR vehicle, it should be really ready and without obvious known flows. Especially since i bought what is knowns as the V5 or fifth version of the same rig
Kevin i think that they should get rid of unbelted tyres because as soon as the tyres swell up the cars loose control. What's your opinion about this?
Hi bro
Kev please!!!!!! Get the red cat Rampage
Best vid ever! Thanks kev for always making me smile!
Vinnie,
"oh wait I think the batteries were just dead"
Your channel brings the joy to me , got subscribed
I would like you to check out the IMEX Big Bear 2 ....Looks like a great truck!!!!
great bit of bashing there guys 👊 enjoyed watching that 😂
the xmaxx driving right through Vinnie's Nikko was bloody hilarious 😆 🤣🤣
These Traxxass X-Maxxes seem to be so good they should be converted and used in the military, fire brigades and so on. I don’t know if that’s the case but these seem like a cheap and reliably platform to build anything on it. I may be wrong tho. I love them anyways. Will get one if I can afford.
they are not cheap D;
It’s only reliable in its original state. As soon as you add weight to it, the parts break easier
love your vids man the work shows
Too much fun as always. In my world I like to see it as a trade off for so much fun. Do some big jumps, something breaks, fix it, rinse and repeat.
Cut some RC fuel line and put in the hubs each end to stop the shaft from sliding back and forth and prevent it coming out like that again 👌🏻
Great work Kevin, just some food for thought when does it become not an xmaxx with all the upgrades? .. I'm not being a nob just wondered your thoughts... Cheers man keep up the great reviews n testing!! 👍
Another great vid Kev, thanks
Hey kev I was wondering if you have ever had a problem with the differentials on the mini maxx’s I broke the front so remove the drive shaft and now I broke the rear one. Has everyone had this I need to know…😭😭😭
You should try a traxxas stamped I think I is the best 1/16 scale all around rc car it just needs a brushless motor and a lipo battery.
The stampede is not 1/16 scale💀
Yea it’s 1/10, the 1/16 scales are the ERevo summit and slash
My bad that's what I thought I just didn't know.
@@jacobdunnivant4978 that would be cool if they made a 1/16 Stampede though
The smashing to bits of the white RC made my day! Cheers!
I'm thinking of starting back in the hobby with one them Arrma sentons once get cash together, but seeing Vincent's more expensive Arrma 🤔 someone help me here is this a good choice for a start? Cheers lol
Looks like a downgrade to the current driveshaft mods out there. The benefits of the stock setup is that there are multiple points of engagement, whereas that M2C setup is only two points of engagement on a fairly thin pin. Based on how we see drivecups fail, I would rather have the cut center driveshaft with the bearing or the multi-bearing center support over that M2C thing.
Mate luv your hobby, I just got my traxxas jato
Love your xmaxx videos!
Kev!
Where is the lc racing emb-tg?
The Strong 1/14 buggy. Wanting to buy one, and would like some review.
First thing I did to my arrma talion was put some proline racing rims and tires on it (blockades).....I can't believe none of you ever do that!!! Its an absolute must and it looks way more badass. eeeYES! 💪😃
M2C:
Now you can REALLY send it!
Kev:
Consider it sent.
