    They are adjustable for toe, look at the knuckles and shock towers, gives you a ton of different holes for the fixed rod. Still the price is straight up bananas.

    i generally make fun of people who spend $600 for a ready to run jato and then spend another $600 to make it "race ready" when you can get something like a LOSI 8ight-XE RTR for $600 and race it out of the box...

      @@JayTeeRC yes I’d be keen to try one and see how it handles. Problem is no tuning or adjustment and every track is different. Grip and bumps vary dramatically across different tracks so that’s where it will get left behind. The real 1:8 race buggies are on rails on almost any track because of they can be dialled in. That alone is a science let alone trying to drive well and win the race 😆

Not even close. It's cheap and lightweight. They should charge what it's really worth. The Traxxas support and all that doesn't justify the prices. It just doesn't. Corporate greed to the extreme imo.

    It doesn't share any similarities with the OG Jato.
    Its over priced.
    Its not a Nitro (Yes, some of us still run Nitros)
    It doesn't even compare to the original in speed.

    I will say that Traxxas is typically a step above their rtr competition in quality, but $529 for this? Nah, a 6s Typhon is a hundred bucks less, with actual 1/8 components. TC Spark would run circles around the JATO and has real steel drivetrain. The JATO is an overpriced entry level buggy at best. Sorry Charlie, this is a fail IMO.

  • @boduke9428
    @boduke9428 20 дней назад +4

    If it wasn't for everyone else making more powerful 1/8 basher buggies for less and the actual 4s race buggies with adjustable suspension from other companies for around this price then this would be a decent option. Traxxas is gonna have to build an actual better option of something or offer a rig nobody else does before i buy one. If this was a 1/5 scale 8s 4x4 basher buggy I'd order 2 without a second thought. Nobody else offers that.

    Family races 5x 124017's and one 124019 would love to get the upcoming brushless traxxas but if I'm spending over 500 anyway mind as well spend a bit more and go for something a lil bigger and possibly 6s+

    Jato stands for Jet Assisted Take Off. The owner felt like this car represented that. I agree, I wish they would have called it the 4x4 bandit. The reason this guy is "expensive" is not only the amount of upgrades, Traxxas has a LIFETIME warranty on their electronics and batteries. Majority other companies have 2 years at best. Also, Traxxas has customer service 7 days a week until 9pm!!

    This looks cool, but this is a racing buggy, not a Jato. I still have my nitro Jato 3.3 from 2006. And this looks nothing like it. Kinda pricey too. Just give it a different name as a new item release traxxas. Why recycle the Jato name and put it on something that looks nothing like a Jato? 🤷🏻‍♂️ I love traxxas and have a bunch of their cars, nitro from back in the day, and electric from the past few years. But I’m getting stale on traxxas because they keep trying to reinvent the same cars. Arrma has been killing it lately and my RC collection now has a bunch of Arrma in it too. Still a great video. I’m just really disappointed in traxxas on this one.

    The BL-2S though, doo doo. Offers nothing over the 3S Typhon but costs $20 more. In fact, gets it's butt kicked in every aspect for $20 more. Hard pass.

    Traxxas is hit and miss, for this price point on the VXL, include adjustable turnbuckles!! I get it on the BL2S, but this is supposed to be a notch up model so it should at least get basic features to tune drivability. I've had to upgrade ALOT of parts on my Rustler VXL 2WD, yes it is fun to drive, but at what cost. Part of Traxxas strategy is not just the initial sale, its knowing people will have to, or want to upgrade parts. The Typhon looks pretty good stacked up against this as well.

    It's not only about what "I" like, it's about choices, VXL perfect for adults, BLS for the kids, choice is a great thing about this hobby, its not always about speed, racing, and power, I bet 75% of sales are intended for Father & Child just having fun RC'ing together, if companies only sold to the youtube experts and enthusiasts, they would have been all out of business long ago.
