    Traxxas should do a kit. Without tires,body and electronics for a good price. Than you can do what you want. I like kits more. Great video.

    $1500 plus batteries and charger now it’s $2k plus. Son……that’s losi 5t money. All that metal and the belted tires just adds weight on the stock motor. I’ve kept mine all stock and never had an issue. Plastic bends back, metal doesn’t.

    I love the Xmaxx and XRT. I am not going to buy this because I think the upgrades they chose don’t improve the truck by $500. I’d rather have a regular Xmaxx with a max 6, High end servo and hardened gears. The parts they replaced with alloy are inexpensive to fix on a standard Xmaxx. If this were $1200 it would be worth considering.

  • @4ehardy
    @4ehardy 8 месяцев назад +1

    I just purchased an Xmaxx ultimate a few days ago. and it's my first one. I haven't bashed it yet but I love the size and durability of it so far. However for that price tag i do think that they could have done better with the body and the security of the batteries as well. But with the high cost of everything these days i don't see that price going down no time soon. as always I appreciate your videos and knowledge for us rookies in the RC world 💯

    Earl I just learned something today when I was looking at parts online for the Xmaxx. The steel threaded end links on the aluminum steering links are replaceable. Traxxas sells them in a bag of 2, one for each end of the aluminum steering links. I ordered two bags of them part number 7798.

  • @stayunique91
    @stayunique91 Год назад +5

    The XMaxx Ultimate is very underwhelming. I agree, some of the upgrades were needed and welcome but I think they executed them poorly. Like the rear hubs, they didn’t need to be aluminum, they needed to use a better plastic like RPM. The bell crank is a welcome upgrade I think as well as the hardened spur gear and pinion. But the front steering knuckles and block again should have been made from a better plastic so you don’t break them or rip the pins out. But I think the biggest let down is the power system. The same power system they have had in the truck for going on 7 yrs. Personally if I was in the market for a big Basher I’d go for the Outcast/Kraton 8s EXB RTR as it’s really a better value. And with the money I saved, I’d go over to M2C and order up parts to fortify it.

I've never broken so much stuff at once after replacing the metal stuff with the stock plastic stuff indeed. My experience.

    I heard a rumor, that the reason it doesn’t have a roof skid. Is because in order to keep it from poking through the cardboard, they would have to add an extra layer of foam which would raise the box dimensions. In that case, they couldn’t fit enough into a shipping container to fit logically.
    Also, I love my XMAXX. The only thing I wish that it really came with was a chassis brace may be internal to help keep the body from popping off and the driveshaft from bending

    To add all the weight, charge 1500, and still not put the HD arms on it is absolutely insane to me. The ultimate xmaxx should be just that, ultimate. But no, they still leave out possibly the most important OEM upgrade for the added weight. That and no roof skid is just insulting tbh.
    Besides that though, my only real wish is that they would upgrade the electronics at some point. Maybe a stronger motor. But I think it's a fair ask for the people in the market for a tricked out xmaxx.

    @ninthislandrc Год назад +1

    DEFINITELY "novelty". I have a few thoughts on this, all of which come to the same conclusion - it's NOT worth it.
    1) You can purchase the standard RTR, be "wise" in your upgrade decisions (as many have pointed out, Traxxas went (purposely???) 'overboard' in selecting upgrade parts), and sell off the brand-new no-longer-needed parts. In the end, you'll have an RC that's better than their 'Ultimate', and the final cost will be closer to $100-200 more than the standard RTR.
    2) You can purchase a roller from an RC chop shop, be "wise" in your upgrade decisions, and end up with the same vehicle mentioned in option #1, but with a final cost that's equal to, or possibly slightly less than, the standard RTR.
    3) Taking option #2 one step further, you could sell off the brand-new no-longer-needed parts, and end up with a final cost that's definitely less than the standard RTR.
    4) Part of why Traxxas is probably doing this...and, as already pointed out by others...is that Traxxas probably has a large number of unsold 'upgrade' parts in their warehouse, which is probably due to the fact that most 3rd-party upgrade parts cost less than Traxxas' own upgrade parts and/or those 3rd-party parts are of higher quality (such as 7075 vs Traxxas 6061).
    5) The final point has to do with something many have suspecting for several months - that Traxxas is going to soon be releasing a new version of the X-MAXX, based on the XRT chassis. This is a good way for Traxxas to 'unload' their excess of X-MAXX vehicles and/or upgrade parts. If you think about it, this, combined with point #4, makes a lot of logical sense.

    I think adding some aluminum is gonna spell a disaster. Yes, I added aluminum Shock caps to Princess, the rebuilt stampede I think is bulletproof, but she is built with mostly plastic pieces. I wouldn't trust the "Revised" X-Maxx, and the price? My new wheelchair was close to that price, but it's built better and won't break if I sneeze. Buy the Non-revised r/c, save money.

      My blue xmaxx had all these upgraded parts in aluminum not traxxas parts but parts I found at a good deal HR most of it other then the links it did great but took a max6 to really make it perform good 👍

    They should have changed the body to a sledge like locking system. The aluminum parts are a waste of hard earned money, and belted tires defeat what a basher is made to do! And a $1500 price tag for parts you don’t really need. It’s just a money grab.

Apparently this so called gravity can hold tons of water to a so called spinning ball but does nothing to insects and birds. Plus if the earth was spinning how can we get perfect mushroom clouds form like that? Space flight Earl? Look at the latest Indian moon landing footage and tell me with a straight face that that looks legit for 2023. 🤣 Luv you Earl ❤please dont be mad at me because im no longer a member of the spinning ball space monkey religion.

    traxxas missed the boat... aarma created the exb with all the tougher parts at no extra cost they knew they built a truck u had to upgrade to get any life out of it... traxxas puts the upgraded parts that they should have done in the orignal truck and cost 5 hundred extra.. they sell a truck that needs a better servo and tires at a bare minimum the bling is cool but thats just bull . they should recall all the xmass/xrt and give them the upgraded tires and servo
    thats my 2 cents

    I’d never buy the ultimate. Regular old xmaxx would be just fine for me. I still haven’t been able to even save $1000 for the regular xmaxx. There’s no way I’d buy one for 50% markup. A lot of those upgrades aren’t even necessary in my opinion. Pretty disappointed that this is what they dropped. Everyone is waiting for a new rc. We haven’t gotten it for a long time. Even the xrt is a modified version of an xmaxx not really a new rc. This ruined my Christmas for sure 😄
