I feel this truck is a no-brainer for people who really own Ford trucks, even if they aren't into RC. I believe that's what the Traxxas marketing department was counting on.
Jealousy is a females trait! What u should be grateful.for u don't live up north here were our funny money conversion is terrible and everything cost waay more usually on parts shipping is the same or more the the cost of what ur wanting. Make it redundant. But we do have no taxes or dirt on any coming from china thanks to Trudumb being employee of the decade
Yeah 3S def overheats the VXL esc, even on normal driving. esc fan is a must, probably motor too. Gets hot hot driving on grass. Love the new Raptor. Looks so sick!
This truck should come with a heat sink for the motor and cooling fans for both the motor and esc. The Hoss comes with an esc fan and it’s much cheaper than the RaptoR
Super cool truck I just wish Traxxas would innovate a little more and put a larger motor in! We all know the vileneon 3500 kv motor overheats the second you start having fun with it, other than that cool truck!
i think i'll likely just end up converting my slash 4x4 to this. chassis, bumpers, body mounts, body and driveshaft and good to go. i like the longer wheelbase setups for stability.
They missed a huge opportunity by not putting this on a udr platform! Also, all their low budget components and that exposed steering link at over 500??
Mark, can you add bigger wheels to this bad boy without changing the gearing? Monster Traxxas Raptor R? If so, which wheels and tires would you recommend?
I love the content!!!! Thank you! I need some advice on putting proline trenchers on my rustler vxl 4x4 and idk if I need to change the pinion gear.. if so what would you change it to from the stock that's in it?.. Thank you again! Much love from Utah✌🏻
I just had my hobby shop order a special edition XRT for me, This looks sweet though! I'm curious if I could buy the extended chassis for this thing and put it on my Slash 4x4 VXL?
Went to my local hobby shop today and seen this thing..... It came VXL! Totally different axles (constructed way better)!!!! Only thing I did not like is the factory tires that came with
If Traxxas can get a hold for Dodge and Toyota body for that new chassis, I definitely gonna buy one for sure. The Ford body looks amazing especially that black color 🤌
I LOVE this truck. Bought the only 2 they had in Waco yesterday. Been bashing them for 2 days now and its more fun than the Promoto! Durable, fast and jumps great! Just posted a video of us jumping ours for 7 minutes straight. For sure needs a cooling system. Texas heat is not being nice to these trucks.
Ok so serious question. I’m looking to get my 2nd RC. Have the rustler vlx 4x4. Been looking at the slash ultimate and then saw this drops on the 5th. So do I wait and go with the Raptor R. Or do I go ahead and get the Ultimate. And just get the Raptor R after they drop all the mods? Can you do a ultimate vs Raptor R vid?
I’d throw in a 6s system, custom f150 body , 17mm wheels making it a ford raptor R lightening edition 😎 either way that truck is definitely awesome out of the box !!!! Great review on another new rc as always🤙
@@TrokaRC lmao 🤣 it was a simple typo with “ lightning “ but keep your piss poor comments to yourself cause it’s really not that serious about no toy cars. Just enjoy the review like everyone else did while keeping yo mouth shut. Have a great day buddy !
Looks good. I know it’s more of a scale vehicle But, i would prefer the Baja Rey 2.0 Raptor or the F100 for looks and performance. Plus you don’t have to worry about it overheating like the stock trashass electronics. Just my .02 Great video Mark!
con grats traxxas , keep re useing the slash 4x4 chassis to make a new version of slash 4x4 . with different boddies , but you can not make a another version of the UDR that is afortable for me to buy .
I’m saving to buy my son a car, this economy has me tight hopefully he still wants one in a few months, because I’m excited to get into on this with him
The body is so nice you don’t even wanna crash it !😅
Mark,i heard if u upgrade to a maxx esc it will not overheat
I feel this truck is a no-brainer for people who really own Ford trucks, even if they aren't into RC.
I believe that's what the Traxxas marketing department was counting on.
Can’t wait for a TRX version!
Won't ever happen unfortunately
@@jagerstrand7892id probably just figure out how to mount the body on a trx4 or somthing haha
@@me-rn7jx you’d have to extend the Trx-4 wheelbase to 15.1”, from 12.3 or 12.8
This would make an epic trail truck. I can’t wait until it’s out so I can see the smaller channels have fun with it.
Throw the hoss motor and center diff in it.
That's exactly what I'm going to do!
Snow driving would be epic with this version
Just bought mine today....they had red,blue & black.....of course I went with the black
That’s an awesome truck and I have had a look and it’s available here in the uk. Possibly an addition to my collection next year
OF COURSE you got the black. I'm sooo jealous of your income and proximity to the traxxas store. 🤣😂
Well you’d be even more jealous if you knew he didn’t pay for it. Lol.

@@joshmcbride7188 calm tf down. dang
Can’t have that much money or wouldn’t of been crying poor Losi didn’t send him a pro moto.
I don't think Mark bought this one!!!!!
The horn music at 3:52 scared the bejeezus out of me lol.
I thought I was the only one😂😂😂😂
Yeah 3S def overheats the VXL esc, even on normal driving. esc fan is a must, probably motor too. Gets hot hot driving on grass. Love the new Raptor. Looks so sick!
This could be the one for me. Been holding off and researching longer wheel base options in the short course category and this seems the best yet
I don’t recommend it
This truck should come with a heat sink for the motor and cooling fans for both the motor and esc. The Hoss comes with an esc fan and it’s much cheaper than the RaptoR
I would love to see a ram trx with 4s electronics. Be a raptor killer in 1/10 scale
It looks like a real truck like 1/1 when you where going around it!💪🏻🔥👍🏼💯🛞
Super cool truck I just wish Traxxas would innovate a little more and put a larger motor in! We all know the vileneon 3500 kv motor overheats the second you start having fun with it, other than that cool truck!
Great now I have another one to buy! Good video MSM team!
SUPER CLEAN LOOKIN TRUCK 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
Love that clip less body.....needs thicker shock fluid....and sway bars....and your golden.....great video.....😎👍
It looks absolutely stunning!
Also, about the 2s 3s thing, always maximum power!
So Mark watch a video of a full scale Raptor Jump. This truck looks exactly like a full scale truck jumping......so awesome!!!!
Can I get a link for that blower you used to clean it off? TY
That chassis is gonna be really awesome for gt conversion and speed runs
Looks like you had a front sway bar on that slash 4x4. Do you know if the sway bar kits are interchangeable with the raptor r?
They are
I would love to see a comparison between this Traxxas and the new Losi Baja Rey 2.0
Congrats on getting this launch edition. Very cool! Hard work pays off.
That's the best looking 3s Traxxas indeed. It comes with lights too. Very nice.
Thanks for posting his video Mark Santa Maria I didn’t even know it came out.
i think i'll likely just end up converting my slash 4x4 to this. chassis, bumpers, body mounts, body and driveshaft and good to go. i like the longer wheelbase setups for stability.
For Slash owners Traxxas should sell kit with Chassis, Bumpers, Wheels, and Body.
We have only asked for Scale body for 15 years
That’s DOOOOOPPPPPEEEEEEEEE🎉🎉🎉🎉
Awesome, they should have made it 4s with some SRT features. Lol
They missed a huge opportunity by not putting this on a udr platform! Also, all their low budget components and that exposed steering link at over 500??

If I we’re you I’d go with a 9/54 gearing if you put on trenchers, even at stock 4x4 Rustler gearing it can still overheat with those tires
Oh dang she looks so sweet!
Can you swap longer chasis to old short Slash? So i dont have to buy whole truck With elektronics?
How many times can one person say sick in one video. This one sets a record...
Marton Brothers long travel kit would be perfect for this !!!
3s! Just send it! The words of Kevin Talbot.
I tried looking for one can’t find it. Where can I get one from?
I just had my hobby shop order a special edition XRT for me, This looks sweet though! I'm curious if I could buy the extended chassis for this thing and put it on my Slash 4x4 VXL?

When is it available and how much?
I really enjoy your review definitely going to pick one up
I'm just laughing hysterically because you discovered the hitch. We know a trailer will be hitched to it. Haha! Good stuff man!
If Traxxas can get a hold for Dodge and Toyota body for that new chassis, I definitely gonna buy one for sure. The Ford body looks amazing especially that black color 🤌
when will you do the promoto

Question, is youtube your job and does it pay the bill for all of the rc's?
Man I wish i still used traxxas. I just know its really a2s truck.. all I see is 500 in up grades. Still a beautiful truck.
If proline hasn't already, they gotta make the dodge rebel body for it
Wonder if you could use the hoss chassis with all the raptor parts?
Have you seen the f150 raptor from hobby trackion
I see a extended drag slashes being built
Oh sweet, another Traxxas video! Great! 🤷🏻♂️👍👍💯💯😂
It’s like the same difference between a rival mt10 and a pro4. Pro 4 is so much funner to race with
So why do I need a longer wheel base for $100+? What’s the advantage? Clip less body is nice.
RC number 735 to put on Donnie's want list!😂
I like look of that. It being longer it looks like keeps the front on the ground. Slides a bit more then pulling the wheels up?
The 2400kv motor would look sweet on that chassis 😉
looks like long wheelbase slash chassis hmm, tempting :D
Back in the day I cut my stampede in half made it longer and put the rear arms on the front and it was awesome.
I’d throw in a 6s system, custom f150 body , 17mm wheels making it a ford raptor R lightening edition 😎 either way that truck is definitely awesome out of the box !!!! Great review on another new rc as always🤙
Lightning? The truck that can't tow?
@@TrokaRC lmao 🤣 it was a simple typo with “ lightning “ but keep your piss poor comments to yourself cause it’s really not that serious about no toy cars. Just enjoy the review like everyone else did while keeping yo mouth shut. Have a great day buddy !
@@chrissolo8472 Typo? I'm saying raptor r and lightning are two different models lol. Likewise.
@@TrokaRC yeah , I was speaking in terms of making your own f150 edition of this truck. Reading is very fundamental.
@@chrissolo8472 Typo or reading whatever, upload a video when it's finished then. Doing > talking
how would it do in an indoor course?
I have the 3rd Gen tundra and have been trying to find a scale body for one of my RCs
That looks good and fun.
9:27 something flew off after the landing there
Definitely saw that as well haha then he said zero damage and I was like hold up
@@thomaspayne5483 lol!
does it come in Nitro?
Good video. Thank you!
An extended slash essentially.
You have to see 3x7outdoor’ Sledge 150 it is sooo sick!🤩
Perfect for a Fall Guy truck build. Hmmmm
The most beautiful traxxas I’ve ever see , love the body
Thing looks sick
Now we need the silverado ZR2 an I will buy it
Not enough popularity to invest in the R&D unfortunately
@@jaybomb5022 right or they can jus make us a old Chevy body I jus need a Chevy lol dnt get me wrong its nice but I like options
I see it’s got the vxl with the enclosed caps like the drag slash.
Realy cool truck. Lots of potential
When it came out, and before they took the body off, my primary question was, is it more of a scaley type Slash or a Very Very fast Brushless TRX4?
Here to see what color body you got. 😉 JK Great video Mark!
@rcdriver 👍
seeing it run reminds me of myself driving the RS4 rally car
Looks good. I know it’s more of a scale vehicle But, i would prefer the Baja Rey 2.0 Raptor or the F100 for looks and performance. Plus you don’t have to worry about it overheating like the stock trashass electronics.
Just my .02
Great video Mark!
But will the raptor body fit on a Trx4 ?
TRD pro would be SICK!!
Awesome video i'm buying one keep on doing what you're doing and stay safe and keep on rcing ✌️
con grats traxxas , keep re useing the slash 4x4 chassis to make a new version of slash 4x4 . with different boddies , but you can not make a another version of the UDR that is afortable for me to buy .
I like the black
I think you're wrong. We were expecting another SCALE rc desert racer!
If Traxxas wants to impress, they should come out with a dodge charger super bee, scat pack or hellcat.
Put the drag slash rear slicks on front and back and do some speed runs
I know you want too
looks like a more narrow/longer slash 4x4 chassis...
Nice truck cool set up
Can’t wait for this one ✌🏽
I’m saving to buy my son a car, this economy has me tight hopefully he still wants one in a few months, because I’m excited to get into on this with him
They actually do have a Toyota license. They came out with a Toyota Supra 4tec
I run a raptor body on my sct410 basher...its just nice :)
I’m not personally a fan of fords but the body is beautiful
love me another ford! thanks for the review man!
