Welcome back to Thunder RC! My Traxxas Xmaxx takes on the new Traxxas XRT in a epic bash battle! Which truck will win this round? Let the battle begin!
Thanks so much for watching y’all. 😊My hands were frozen 🥶 popsicles filming the XRT at the skatepark😂Appreciate you !!! Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 to those who celebrate 💕🦃
DUDE!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I don’t drive anywhere near what you do. But you definitely help find the weak points on these trucks! I like what your doing man! Your vids and excitement show through. Keep it up🎉
Nobody rips, jumps and bashes like Thunder RC!☺️ You definitely know how to handle RCs and Momma Thunder definitely knows how to film!⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️ Hope y’all have a safe and blessed Thanksgiving!
Hey rocky this gotta be your best video yet well done traxxas should compliment you on your durability test on both trucks, my favorite would be the XRT all day long but I love my XMAXX just as much , remember when I told you traxxas is coming out with a 1/5 scale EREVO brushless edition, well I was pretty close the XRT was a better idea from traxxas ha ha thanks your friendly neighborhood Doorman william from NYC forgettaboutit 👊 😀
Thanks so much for the great video. I am still waiting for my XRT to arrive, but I am sure I will like it as much as my X-Maxx. Your vids are the best.
Another epic bash brother! If people get into this hobby thinking parts are not gonna break, no matter the brand, they have picked the wrong hobby! Greetings from Kingsville!
thank you so much Ice Cold and yeah in this hobby you gotta get used to stuff breaking.... unless you have a shelf queen! lol. Glad to know you are fellow south Texan!! 😎☀🌴
Great comparison, I've been dousing the plastic with Seafoam Deep Creep lubricant and the plastic is very flexible and has been taking the abuse for 2 years with minimal stress and breakage. Great video dude 👍 thanks for keeping the XMAXX alive and well, lol KEEP ON BASHING, OR RACEING! FROM LONDON ONTARIO CANADA
I love the xrt more and more with every video in seeing of it. Super durable out of the box.. And it looks sexy as hell! And it seems to handle the high speed gearing straight out of the box. I can't think of many rtrs if any that can. Love the videos dude! Keep em coming.
a real treat to watch this Rocky bash session and superbly filmed congratulations to you 🙏 XRT looks like a hell of a machine, but I'm sticking to Xmaxx that I really like man 💪, peace 🙏🤘
EastSide RC here I for one absolutely LOVED this video it was fantastic brother Rocky! Also huge shoutout to Momma Thunder for her steady hand at filming this masterpiece! These two trucks are by far the best in the Electric world! Now I will say this one thing, its about time someone made a full metal cased servo for these animals!! Thank you for making a nice longer vid brother so much action it still felt short! Love you and your family my bro!!!
Sparks at 7:05 maybe that's when the gears went? Seemed to be making a noise after that wonky landing but either way what an absolute beast!! I never thought a rtr would take that much out of the box. Incredible skills dude, to your lady, thanks for such great videography, always super entertaining and educational. 👍👍👍3 thumbs up for you sir
Actually the sparks were from the screws hitting metal at the skatepark. Haha you could be right about that landing 🤣🤣Thank you so much brother! Hope you are doing fantastic!🔥⚡️🏆🏆🚀
I have been having a problem with my xmaxx it has loose tie bars on the lower arms and the truck starts shaking when driving I have no idea how to fix this if anyone can help
Love them both! I honestly felt a little bad for the XRT that was a BEAT DOWN. Excellent test though! I have 100% faith that the XRT is a beast of a basher, up there with the best.
Great video as always buddy, XMaxx & XRT what a top pair of hardcore trucks Traxxas have produced, I still have the very first 6s XMaxx which still runs perfectly fine although i am considering putting a Max6 in it & also a Max6 in my later 8s XMaxx. I have placed my order for the new XRT but unfortunately it looks like it won’t be over here in the UK until January 🤔 Keep up your great videos mate & stay safe 🤜🏼🤛🏼
Yoo. That was wicked man! That new xrt might have a slight edge on the trusty xmaxx king. Are you running the widemaxx kit on the xmaxx or are those just the hd orange arms? Both trucks look about the same width. Also how come you don't have a m2c chassis brace on the xmaxx?
Thanks bro! I am running the regular HD arms / that’s my preference for the Xmaxx! As for the chassis brace I don’t run it because it adds extra weight to the truck. ⚡️🚀🏆 thanks for watching !
For crazy send to the moon stuff and aerobatic fineness, your OutCast 8s does it very well like a ballerina😂, but for tank build and Duluth durability..the Xmaxx and XRT Wins!👍
Have you done any shock upgrades on the xrt? I agree these things can take a pounding but that front end bottoms out easy (makes me cringe). Just wondering what your thoughts are on making this thing land smoother
🌩🌩🌩🌩Dude, Bro!!! That's Traxxas abuse! How dare you beat up on those poor girls like that at the skatepark. Hahahaha! Lol. 🤣😆🤣😆🤣❤❤ Omg. Bro, both those trucks took some serious abuse at the skatepark and off the death ramp. How are they not in hundreds of pieces, dude??? Some of those landings looked and sounded HORRIBLE! Those are two of the most beautiful almost-bulletproof beasts I've ever seen. WHAT did you put in the XMAXX to make it seem so unbreakable. It has to be the trained driver behind the "wheel" that has faith in his girls to pull off such seemingly impossible jumps and stunts?? They both seemed to do incredible! But Traxxas has got to come up with a better replacement wing mount for the XRT. that's its 1 serious weakness. The breakages were expected on the XRT; She WAS slapping on concrete. Concrete, brother! And those were some nasty landings. I'm not surprised by the breakages on the XRT. She had to break some time. The plus side is: Time for M2C to come up with some nice upgrades for her! She needs some shiny new jewelry, too!! Lol.🌩🌩🌩🌩 Great video by the way, Rocky! The Xmaxx and XRT were AWESOME to watch. BASH ON, brother!!!💥❤❤👍👍👍👊👊🤘🌩🌩🌩
Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🍽 Jason and family. We always look forward to your witty comments. Take care and hope to see you soon. This cold weather 🥶🥶 needs to go away!!! I’m not used to it at all ☀️🌴☀️
@@juliachatwell Happy Thanksgiving to Y'all, too!!🦃🦃 I'm grateful for all the time God grants me to spend with friends and family. 🙏🙏We hope to return to the coast🏖 soon, but with all our work schedules including Sara's it's been a tough road lately. I so want to get down there before Christmas. The wife has "something" planned but she's being very tight lipped about it. 🤔 I hate the cold, too.🥶🥶🌬 Especially since it has been very wet 🌧🌧 in Houston and surrounding areas so I haven't been able to get the girls out as much as I would like. I think we've had MAYBE a few hours of sun between the rain one day. I miss the sun😎🌞🌞😎🌴🙏
@@jasonkraus7442 hope y’all make it to the coast soon. YES, I miss the sun ☀️ too and thought I’d never say it….. BUT, I MISS SUMMER ☀️🌴☀️ Ok there. I said it. Haha. Remind me when I’m complaining about the heat 🔥🔥🔥
@@thunderrc thanks, bro! Happy Thanksgiving!🦃🦃 Love and appreciate you, too. Have a safe and happy holiday weekend, brother. And as always... Bash On, Thunder!!🌩🌩🌩
Great vid. Quick question. Would you please suggest a store in the Tampa/St. Pete area for me? I'm coming from Nitro and been thinking about going battery for long enough. Ready for an X-Max! BTW, in your opinion, do you need to upgrade the radio or is it good enough stock?
These are awesome! I use these. www.ebay.com/itm/115631872570?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=FvkK-sG1SEu&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=fPKb8ugzThm&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
Like comparing a Ford F-350 to. Mustang GT-500 . That said They are two of the toughest R/C vehicles ever produced, with minimal mods needed like RPM’s rear hub carriers and hinge pins, a non monkey metal spur gear,,BUT you can kick the c-rap out of them and do the upgrades when any of those things fail. Parts are very reasonably priced for the XRT & X-MAXX the cost of parts to fix my 8S Kraton a few weeks ago was stupid.
🔥⚡️🏆🔥⚡️🏆🔥⚡️🏆🔥⚡️🏆🔥 HAHA! That was MENTAL! I watched this twice! MY 2 ALL TIME ⚡️THUNDER⚡️MOMENTS- Quad front flip with the K8 and💥SPARKS IN WATER XRT SKATE PARK SEND! This vid is one for the books!

🥰 awww thank YOU Speed!!! 🔥🔥Always crazy , great fun filming the cars. ✅ I didn’t get in this skate bowl cuz grandma can’t get outta if it!! Hahaha. Glad I didn’t fall in it lol. 😂 Rocky might have to get a rope or a tow truck to pull momma out. Haha Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🍁 to you and your family!
So great 👍💪👍. Till now i dont have a traxxas at home. I was planing, some time, i will order one. But i dont know, Xmaxx or XRT? 😢 I like the Look and the handling a bit more from the XRT. But still i dont know whats the right 😅😂😂. At the end, Maybe we will see whats the price i would get one. Both are not cheap and i am not rich 😥😖
Hey man thanks for the videos. I am willing to buy one of these. I see You have wide kit on there can you put this just on the rear axle and stock front so we can see how does it gonna handle ??? It should be better than all wide axle. Cheers
Fantastic Bash here brother. Really impressed with the XRT so far for a big RC she is more durable than an Xmaxx out the box for SURE! And that's saying a lot, you don't have to do all those little tweeks like you need with the Xmaxx, just a Max6/Gears and she good.... I wish I could make this happen but not in the cards for a XRT right now.
Thanks for all your great videos just a heads up my servo went out on the xrt and sent it to Traxxas for warranty service and ask if they would upgrade it and they did the 2085x kit for 40 bucks and sent it to me just a heads up thanks for videos
@@pstarxxx78 yes! They are very user friendly and also has noise cancelling ( which we desperately needed with our wind) and night vision mode. I still have not mastered it …. I’m a novice , camera slave haha. Hopefully I will get it dialed. It was so cold the night we filmed and my hands were shaking. We are total wimps here in south Texas when it’s cold 🥶 Thanks for watching! Appreciate your comment and feedback!!
I love that skate park, I don’t bash there really I just skate get really thirsty and walk across the street to the sonic or dollar general LOl Texas all day
Hahahaha 😂🤣😂 gotta have Sonic and Dollar General close by. You gotta love Texas hahaha might konk out from of a heat stroke and need an ice cold drink and some sunscreen 😂Lol. Well not today , but in summer ….YES!!! You can also go to the bank and mail a package while waiting your turn at the skatepark 😂😂😂
I will agree to disagree with the XRT. It is way too low profile for bashing. In our group 3 people bought them and all 3 have gone back to x maxx when we go bashing. The xrt is stable and fast but it isn’t faster then an x maxx with similar gearing. Put a widemaxx kit and lower suspension a little and you have an XRT basically but more reliable. The wing mount is hilarious and even aftermarket ones break with one hit near the wing. For people watching this.. save your $1000 and keep your x maxx
i have been out of the RC truck game for a while but would like to get back in with electric. my last go around with trucks was a nitro HPI savage. i loved that thing. you could beat the piss out of that thing. question for anyone. battery life? i see that these trucks take 2 batteries. how long do they last. and should i get 4 batteries to keep a couple on hand. thanks for any help.
Hey bro, thanks for reaching out. Yeah the HPI Savage was an awesome truck for sure! These batteries work good and put out massive power! They can last pretty long depending on what milliamp rating the batteries have. Mine last about 25 mins of hard run time.💪🏆🏆🏆🔥🚀🚀
@@thunderrc thanks for the quick response. I have been looking into a couple trucks all day long! the traxxas Xmax and the traxxas XRT. also looked at the Arrma Outcast 8s. i have good things about that truck as well. do you know if the batteries are the same for the Xmax and the XRT? and any help on which ones would be the ones to buy for max drive time?
Thanks so much for watching y’all. 😊My hands were frozen 🥶 popsicles filming the XRT at the skatepark😂Appreciate you !!!
Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 to those who celebrate 💕🦃
Subbed you Julia! Great job on the videography ❤

Truly appreciate you! Thanks so much! I’ll
Have more action coming soo!🚀🚀⚡️🏆⚡️
Will the XMaxx front shocks fit on the rear of the XRT do you know?!? Would this be an upgrade for vertical landings!?
Nope!! I really don’t know. Have not tried it 💥⚡️🤣
Yes!!!👍👍😁😎✌️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️💥💥 that was awesome buddy! Damn stock gears huh! Still loving the xmaxx! XRT is so close though!👍👍

Yea man thanks for the review I’m trying to figure what to buy 8s krayton or xrt but think you helped me decide great reviews bratha
Great video as always buddy, XMaxx & XRT what a top pair of hardcore trucks Traxxas have produced, I still have the very first 6s XMaxx which still runs perfectly fine although i am considering putting a Max6 in it & also a Max6 in my later 8s XMaxx.
I have placed my order for the new XRT but unfortunately it looks like it won’t be over here in the UK until January 🤔

Don’t you need the widemaxx kit on your xmaxx, wouldn’t that be a better comparison???
Epic bash mr. Thunder 😎
Bro sick vid I loved this one. But dam bro how do you get your stock Xmaxx tires to hold that long. Do you glue them yourself.

Good video brother 👍
Which gears you’d suggest for xmax not to overheat as much and best for back flips
Great vid.
Quick question.
Would you please suggest a store in the Tampa/St. Pete area for me?
I'm coming from Nitro and been thinking about going battery for long enough.
Ready for an X-Max!
BTW, in your opinion, do you need to upgrade the radio or is it good enough stock?
You will love the Xmaxx! It is Ana awesome truck. No need to upgrade the radio, the radio is awesome👍⚡️⚡️⚡️🔥
I don’t know if any hobby shops in or near Tampa.
Do you rebuild shocks often m, or just when they get a bent shaft & or leak oil?
Honestly my shocks hardly ever brake which is amazing!😱🚀🚀🏆⚡️
What motor and esc are you running in your xmaxx?….awesome thrashing by the way👍👍👍👍
Stock motor and stock esc! Thanks for watching! 💥🏆⚡️
⚡ ⚡ ⚡
⚡👍🏆
What’s your opinion on the wide maxx kit for the Xmaxx? Is it a good upgrade and still durable? Can you buy single wide Maxx replacement arms?
No I wouldn’t get the wide kit for your Xmaxx. Your steering bell crank will break very easily ⚡️🔥💥💥
@@thunderrc if not the wide maxx kit then how about the M2C hub extensions instead….?
4:04 what was that 😂🔥⚡️
Funny your in Texas tempaturres are brutal huh you probably dipping into the 60s I see you winter attire 😆
hahahaha its been brutal cold here all week, 🥶for us wimps in south Texas 😆🤣
Great video, what gears are going with next? And what ratio?
23-46 gearing mod 1 Thanks so much!!
👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍 Awesome Performance.
thank you! 👍⭐🌠 appreciate it!!
Dang ur new favorite. Now I gotta buy one. But I’ll wait for a sale hopefully
hope you get one !👍⚡ 🔥💯
Just got x max 8s few modes coming like the wide kit and pins can’t wait ,,,just fed up with nitro looking forwards to plug and play,,,
battery recommendation for XRT Beside Traxxas ones
These are awesome! I use these. www.ebay.com/itm/115631872570?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=FvkK-sG1SEu&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=fPKb8ugzThm&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Yes the XRT is an amazing truck. Thank you so much for watching. Love you brother! Happy Thanksgiving!🦃🍁
Garage life rc does 3d printed rear wing mount supports tuff as
thanks Matt! 👍
I dunno. But the Xmaxx looks Hella better doing it! Could be cuz you've had more driving time with the Xmaxx?
thanks bro! yeah, I've had years experience driving the Xmaxx 💯👍the XRT handles great though
Thanks for all your great videos just a heads up my servo went out on the xrt and sent it to Traxxas for warranty service and ask if they would upgrade it and they did the 2085x kit for 40 bucks and sent it to me just a heads up thanks for videos
thanks for watching! and thank you for the info about Traxxas warranty 👍appreciate the tip 💯
What kind of camera are u using?
Hi Rocky. It’s a Sony Handycam
@@juliachatwell that does 1000 times better then a GoPro in low light. I’m gonna Check one out.
Is it the 230$ model? I see 2 of them. 1000$ and 230$ models.
@@pstarxxx78 yes! They are very user friendly and also has noise cancelling ( which we desperately needed with our wind) and night vision mode. I still have not mastered it …. I’m a novice , camera slave haha. Hopefully I will get it dialed. It was so cold the night we filmed and my hands were shaking. We are total wimps here in south Texas when it’s cold 🥶
Thanks for watching! Appreciate your comment and feedback!!
@@pstarxxx78 I’m not exactly sure the price , but it is the AX 53
I love that skate park, I don’t bash there really I just skate get really thirsty and walk across the street to the sonic or dollar general LOl Texas all day
Hahahaha 😂🤣😂 gotta have Sonic and Dollar General close by. You gotta love Texas hahaha might konk out from of a heat stroke and need an ice cold drink and some sunscreen 😂Lol. Well not today , but in summer ….YES!!!
You can also go to the bank and mail a package while waiting your turn at the skatepark 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
I will agree to disagree with the XRT. It is way too low profile for bashing. In our group 3 people bought them and all 3 have gone back to x maxx when we go bashing. The xrt is stable and fast but it isn’t faster then an x maxx with similar gearing. Put a widemaxx kit and lower suspension a little and you have an XRT basically but more reliable. The wing mount is hilarious and even aftermarket ones break with one hit near the wing. For people watching this.. save your $1000 and keep your x maxx
I can't find an xrt that's not local pickup.... help me!!!!! Ready to order
I just bought one on eBay 👍💪🏆🏆⚡️
can't decide xmaxx or XRT...
Both are amazing! It is hard to pick just one!⚡️🏆🏆🏆🤣
So it looks like you're liking this Traxxas XRT over the Arrma these days.
Looks like a pretty tough truck.
Man yes that is true! Traxxas has been coming out with amazing bashers these days!🔥🏆⚡️⚡️🏆
@@thunderrc that EXB roller for less than 500 bucks is pretty tempting though bro! LOL
i have been out of the RC truck game for a while but would like to get back in with electric. my last go around with trucks was a nitro HPI savage. i loved that thing. you could beat the piss out of that thing. question for anyone. battery life? i see that these trucks take 2 batteries. how long do they last. and should i get 4 batteries to keep a couple on hand. thanks for any help.
Hey bro, thanks for reaching out. Yeah the HPI Savage was an awesome truck for sure! These batteries work good and put out massive power! They can last pretty long depending on what milliamp rating the batteries have. Mine last about 25 mins of hard run time.💪🏆🏆🏆🔥🚀🚀
@@thunderrc thanks for the quick response. I have been looking into a couple trucks all day long! the traxxas Xmax and the traxxas XRT. also looked at the Arrma Outcast 8s. i have good things about that truck as well. do you know if the batteries are the same for the Xmax and the XRT? and any help on which ones would be the ones to buy for max drive time?
is xmax stock motor?
Yes, it is
you know how much vibration will be caused by the bent drive shaft? you know what those vibrations will do to your car? it wouldnt last 4 years
If it didn’t strip a pinion or spur it wouldn’t be a Traxxas…..
🤣😂🤣
First!
⚡⚡⚡🏆🏆🏆🔥🔥🔥
🧨🧨🦏🐘🚀🚀
thanks bro! ⚡🔥🔥🧨🧨⚡
Xmax still looks more fun
It is most of the time man!🎄🏆⚡️⚡️💥💪
It is a shame on a truck that durable that they would put such a week part on the wing mount or maybe it’s by design 😯🪓😜
Yes it is a shame ! 👍💥💪

XRT is awesome! 👍🔥
