I'm sensing some serious 4th of July action coming up! Love this truck, thanks MSM!
Still a dream RC car for me
Love MSM
The little piece in the bag that you didn't know about is a spacer block for if you want to take off the wheelie bar. The spacer block goes in its place by the lower rear skid plate.
Funny how people own one or multiple of them and don't know
The x Maxx is a beast I can't wait till I can get one. Great vid man thanks for sharing it with us
I agree that's why I have multiple Xmaxxs and a XRT...Both 💯 👍👍
Do u have any that jump into light poles lol
I'm umming over selling my X to to a XRT- would you say a worthy jump?
@@curbscrape8343 XRT is an awesome truck, if you like the Xmaxx you will be just as happy with the XRT maybe even a little more, XRT does handle better, you can slide or drift more on asphalt or concrete without flipping over, where the Xmaxx is a little tougher to drive on hard surfaces!!!! XRT is a good choice 💯
I have two. I bought the green ultimate about four months ago and I love it.👍🏼🔥💪🏻. Great video Brother.
Whats the best differential fluid to run? Stock is 10k front, 30k in the rear. Ive heard you want thicker weight in the front for cornering.
I am planning on building an X-Maxx from a blank chassis and getting parts from friends and build exactly the way I want it as an extreme basher.
I built my X-Maxx. I highly recommend it.
Awesome truck! I remember seeing my E-Revo for the first time on your channel lol! The XRT and now this one are my net favorites! Great video as always Mark!! Are you and or the family coming to GA at the end of July??
I bought one a few years ago...just bought a new one last week...going to do a after market review the only difference right now is stock tires...I needed another one like I need a hole in my head...I am a beginner...want to do side by side comparison gears steering servo, gears and so called upgrades...I've bought them for the first one....and less than stellar...my new one will be here Thursday also fixing a Armarta limitless I bought with only two runs ...cheap...it needs new batteries because it was sitting and never charged for storage...which I will be selling...spectrum radio and charger...but batteries are junk
Just got mine a few days ago! Got it used for $850 with a dual charger and two batteries… all of which are BRAND new. Bottom of the chassis/arms had 0 scuffs, the diff cups were perfect, body had no damage… thing is MINT. Guy said he wanted to sell it bc he got an XRT and liked it more, fine by me! 🤩
Never EVER use self right and vent your tires. your drivetrain/tires will last 100x longer and you’ll save a ton of time (not) glueing tires
good job on letting us know about the sales, this video made me sub. keep em coming, From Alberta Canada❤❤❤❤❤
Nice. I’m also in Alberta Canada 🇨🇦
Hey Mark, how about doing a pit mat shoot out? I've never seen a video comparing them
You cant have too many X Maxx's! I have a regular and a n Ultimate X Maxx. Love them!
You don't own a single one do you
To until now, I would have agreed 100% that the X-MAXX is the "baddest" RC available (well, at least for surface vehicles, as I'm not including boats as 'vehicles')...it's definitely the "baddest" in my current collection of operational vehicles. Now, the reason I specify 'operational' is because I'm currently building a Kraken RC VESLA.5 SBK...and, it has the possibility to supplant the X-MAXX as my "baddest" RC vehicle.
No doubt, those are pretty rad machines! Great stuff, Mark!
Got the green X Maxx ultimate. Washed the tires and added extra glue. Reinforcing the body this afternoon with the drywall tape and shoe goo. Extremely excited to go rip!!!
Awesome. I bought the XRT 8 months ago, the orange one, And I love it. Bought the gravix tires for it recently because the stock ones glue jobs sucked 😂 The blue body on this thing is beautiful! People are gonna hate. But that’s their right to have their own opinions. I’ve never had any problems with anything traxxas I’ve ever bought. Past or present. And I started buying traxxas way back in 1997 when I bought the nitro sport from my LHS. I also own some Arrma, Team Losi, and even the blackzon slyder, and love em all. The hobby’s supposed to be about what makes you happy. And that XMaxx would definitely make me happy! 🤩 Enjoy it, Mark!
Love the blue paint scheme on that new XMAXX!!!!!!
Why isn't that body listed on the site ? Great info !
For me the savage will always be my favorite truck. I pre-ordred the original savage 21 and picked up a v2 flux around christmas time. The v2 is an animal stock.
I'm in Lewisville, Texas, visiting family. What is the best hobby shop I need to check out
Drive on out to Mckinney and visit the Traxxas Store
@Speedracer50 did that already. I was not really impressed
Love my XMaxx only thing those electronics needs is that Fan Upgrade you did
I did it to the esc and motor and they stay cool. Gears just need the hardened steel ones and youre good to go. I vented my tires they been good since And i dont use the self right feature 🤙
Did better fans help? I notice the stock fans are a bit slow and don’t seem to move too much air but I wasn’t sure how much better fans would help. Just got mine a few days ago and MAN it’s so good!

I also vent all my tires immediately. It seems to help them balloon less and makes them more balanced….or at least they balloon more evenly so you don’t get so much pizza cutter action going on.
@@V8chumpman those protek fans made a huge difference You can even hear the power difference in those fans I need to do it to the XRT next 🤙
Bro I just recently got into the RC hobby and I must say you have the baddest RC collection I seen on here
All hail the king of rcs trucks love the blue body the only weak component is the steering servo can't wait to see what your going to do with it 👍👍
Can’t wait to see the finished project!
The sledgehammer tires are 8.4 inches in diameter. The old maxx AT tires were 8.0 inches in diameter. The real issue with the maxx AT and the gravix are that they’re too small for the wheel diameter. The foam ends up snapping and then the clump ends up busting the tire eventually. The sledgehammers have what I believe is enough sidewall and foam thickness to avoid that. I can’t say that with absolute confidence though as I do not own them myself. I have two sets of the old duratrax six packs and one set of the new warthogs. Both are much more adequate. My original set of six packs that are like 2.5 years old still work, though they have needed a couple sets of re gluing. Same for the set I bought with my xrt, one blew out due to inadequate glue. Foam did get destroyed but I had a spare from a cracked wheel so I’m taking the wheel from the dead one and glueing it to the good tire and foam. Warthogs haven’t done anything yet but have much less use. They will probably need glue at some point.
I just bought the same exact truck did some run and posted it on here , I think the belted sledge hammers are to much for the suck gears I blew the gears on mine in the third run , but I love the truck
i know you dont really upgrade the power on your rc cars, but an xmaxx with the big block motor is blast got a few vids on my channel pulls wheelies at 50+
What was the special deal that you got for the xmaxx I’m confused
Awesome machine and yes it is a great looking truck. But as for the best looking body out there on and brand of RC truck is the gun metal gray truck body on the Arrma Big Rock 6s, in my opinion of course 👍. Great video
I like the new traxxas X Maxx and the colors awesome video and stay safe
What hobby store does he go to in colorado because none of the ones i go to have any of these deals
whats the part number for new servo an Mark do you tape up the holes inside the wheels before you put the tires on? Love that blue body, but I still want the solar flare
TRA #2085R is the new servo, 600oz. There is a cheaper one, not quite as powerful, which is part number TRA #2085X.
Just installed it on mine, its called 2085R. Works really well.
I heard something about a traxxas warehouse closing is why so many traxxas vehicles are on sale. Is that true?
I don’t see any traxxas vehicles on sale at all? I see trx4 price drops but that’s been a thing for a while
not much loss for the rc hobby haha
Oh ok . Like you know @idan678
Traxxas pioneered a lot of the tech we use in RC. Be grateful. Arrma plastic is as brittle as glass. I have a 3s slash vxl and I ran it straight Into a wall at like 50 miles an hour and it did not break. That in and of itself is impressive.@@idan678
How many Xmaxxes do you need lol. I just barely got my OG TMAXX .15 engine and the end of this summer I’m gonna do a Tmaxx series of videos on my channel.
That's a big truck cool video
this guy updates video day by day 😂
Are you saying if I buy the traxxas Xmaxx right I will get free battery and charger for it?
The deal is just for the Maxx Slash I believe.
The Redcat Vigilante is the new king in town. It is sick right out of the box needs nothing. You should get one and try it.
i always end up watching ur vids so now i gotta subscribe
I have close to 30 RC's and the XMaxx is hands down my favorite. Second is probably my Outcast 4s.
What kind of ramp is that?
Loving mine with a widemaxx kit and steering upgrade.
I sold all my winches since i never use them.
I wonder why so many TRX4s are out of stock at Traxxas? They gonna update them???
i really need to start saving and get an RC. Been watching RC channels for years and have never got into it yet. I think this year I will invest in an RC setup
Ive had multiple xmaxx's and i love them lol
My favorite rc is
My new slash bl 2s I love it
I like my sledge too , now that i put about 1500 in it.. its probably the worst rc car traxxas has out and still havnt addressed the main issues being the chassis shock towers motormount\centerdiff mount , suspension henge mounts, diffs
or just learn to drive it properly. I've had mine for 8 months and upgraded the esc to a Castle 8s system. Nothing has broken and I send it 20 plus feet in the air. You just need to learn how to control it.
When I started rc it was between this or outcast 8s. I chose outcast. To each their own I guess. Hopefully they can keep pushing eachother
Every time I hear it's the best then hear it needs upgrades or the gears are poor metal etc. It's just a beast of an RC with flaws like everything else. I have serious doubts it will handle my city bashing. I've gone though 14 rigs and so far only 1 has survived a summer here with me.
I have an xmaxx. I love it.
Thunder Tiger should sue Traxxas for using the 'Sledgehammer' name haha
Traxxas had a truck called the sledgehammer in 1989
@@twisterzman Surprised they haven't sued Thunder Tiger then lol
I guess Peter Gabriel should sue as well then
@@hankpog3907 Wouldn't work. That was a song, not an RC vehicle
what ramp do you use?
Have you ever had it shut down due to overheat?
If you lock the diffs you will never have a tire explode. I bought the 6s when XMAXX first released and now its a 8s as if u bought it out of the box 8s. People talk bad about all rc cars not understanding that things will break. Atleast traxxas takes the feedback and puts out new trucks and replacement parts to fix the issues the learn about..
Xmax is 1100 bucks plus 200 for batteries. For 1300 bucks I could buy 3-5 1/10th MTs. While amazing I’m having a hard time justifying the numbers. Plus its size means unless you have land or have a space close to parking, bringing somewhere could be challenging.
What 1/10 mts would you buy?
@@trashbag8124 I have a rival mt10 already, so excluding that, Arrma granite, Maverick Quantum2 Flux Brushless, and kyosho mad van. I would put the TEKNO MT410 2.0 on the list but it’s kinda expensive. But I believe the tekno is kinda worth the cash when done.
@@The94gtmooseseems like open fields are the best to run these bigger ones
This is the best color imo y i have this same one what an awesome beast mark 🤩🤩🤩
Value is subjective, Traxxas lipos and chargers have zero to me. Now are the gears updated, do they strip nonstop? I'm considering buying one.
So they change the tires and the body
Looks insane
i only just got my hands on a xmaxx and its amazing
Darn you Mark, you are seriously costing me more money !!!
They should bring back new version of t maxx
Love the double shocks
Lol how about an X Tmax
Xmax with double shocks
Damn it I was hoping for something new
Ive had my Xmaxx for 3 years everything is stock besides the sledgehammer belted tires
Love the video but u should make more of you and your sons racing buggy’s
That rubber plug is a replacement crush pad for the front bumper.
Nope... it's for a wheelie bar delete
@@RoostedFilms got ya! It’s also the same that they use in the front. My bad. Now I know
Great video
What if you don’t want colored aluminum that scratches why don’t they make a natural aluminum version?
Love my Xmaxx i just oicked one up for 600 and if i brought everything that came with it i would of spent 2000 dollars.
I am happy to be the owner of an X Maxx….. easily my favorite truck in my fleet
I regret selling my xmaxx big time, I wish I had the extra cash to buy another. It’s a great truck for sure.
The little piece in the bag is for when you remove the wheelie bar. It fills in the void
hopefully it pulls a float in the garland parade!
Can you fly a beginners rc plane video
That little part you say you should know what its for I beleive its for when you remove the wheelie bars.
Yep! Slap that in to give some cushion on the rear bumper
DOPE!
I have Ultimate xmaxx as well
I blew two axles the first time I touched the self righting button. Haven’t touched it since and won’t again.
Red, white and blue were used on the flags of both sides of July 4th.
Where can I buy that ramp?
Fresh park. They are expensive
You didn’t mention the gearing is now 15/54. Before it was 18/54
what he say about the sales?
I'm pretty sure the older Xmaxx came with matching shocks to the body color.
I have the 6s blue xmaxx and it has blue shocks.
@@twinturbotony93 right on. I have an older 8S & it has matching shock bodies as well.
@@RoostedFilmsmy friend has an older 8s green xmaxx with green shocks. 6s drive train doesn't like 8s. Can't get 6s parts anymore. I have to upgrade everything to 8s to fix it.
@@twinturbotony93 hopefully most of the the parts retro fit without too much modding
@@RoostedFilms they do for the most part. Just have to upgrade more than I wanted to fix it. It uses bigger hubs & bearings than the 6s. It's been sitting awhile since I have 60+ cars to choose from.
WHERES THE LOSI DBXL E AT ????
Not a fan of the belted tires and $100 prince increase, since belted = really hard to flip. Yeah you can buy the regular tires but now you’re $1200 into a truck that used to be $1000
Never blew a tire! But spur and pinions! About 12
I do like that body! It’s pretty sweet!
Id like to have one, but i dont want to pay that price of them 😂 look fun to go do whatever with
I just got a solar flare 8s xmaxx bout 2wks love it
Super durable? Well I have two of them because one of them is always broken. I'm constantly having to fix different parts on them after every bash. I do love the truck but I wouldn't say it's super durable in any way
What parts do you usually have issues with? I just got mine a few days ago, looking to make it as strong as possible
Exactly, nothing is durable in this Hobby bc peoek go beyond their limitations and alwasy have Me and my brother in law have an Xmaxx he is man enough to admit his issues are driving errors bc he always breaks something and I hardly if ever break. I do big jumps, back flips and land damn near perfect on every jump. Hardly ever break anything. It’s all in how you drive, throttle control, landing, etc. not talking about you in general but I Don’t understand when people Talk badly about an Rc when they are the ones causing most of the issues. The bigger you go the more chance you have to break and there is always a defective issue with every single model that’s ever come out. Arrma has its wing mount. Body, mount, chassis bend, service issues. I mean, everything has its flaws. Nothing gonna be perfect.
@@V8chump a-arms, steering servo, spur/pinion gear. It can all be upgraded to be more reliable and maybe the newer ones have better components, I don't know. Mine didn't come with belted tires which are almost necessary on these things.
Need more videos of actual racing
I got a free winch with my new body trx4 bronco. I think it was my hobby shop that did it but maybe it was a traxxas thing idk
The Xmas paint job that you’re bragging about was great five years ago. It’s getting old so much Traxxas.
Nice
If im gonna do some extreme bashing,xmaxx 100%. Love my v2 8s arrmas and they can extreme bash but you are one wrong landing from having to fix the arrma.
If you dont drive this thing like ThunderRC, it will last for ever. :)
I don't have anywhere to run something that big
the baddest Xmaxx is the vitavon roller one
