Just got mine today, RED were your springs too short? Mine have like half inch of play between the top of the spring and the bottom the collar (when unthreaded) Luckily I have extras from my Maxx & Sledge
Awesome Mark!!! I'm going to get blue one!! I would get green .. but I think that green looks a little too weird. I would prefer a darker green ... so blue it is.
I wonder if the rumors are true about the container of red ones being stolen? Thanks for the continued content! When I did the FPV video I strapped the GoPro to the hood and that really helped keep the nose down. I did lose 2MPH (according to the GPS) which I think was due to more wind resistance. Glad you were able to backup the traxxas claim! i was really happy to see 60MPH with the body on.
You need to get the ARMMA body clip tethers and drill the battery clamp top to connect tether tp brace add 'R' clip's to them then yhey will not get lost, I have done this on a couple of my vehicles, I foundsome coloured ones that stand out.
Did you notice how they have it listed on the website for scale, Under scale it says MAXX so are there gonna be more MAXX scale vehicles? I'm curious!!!
Questions have you bought aluminum upgrades for Max slash. I bought all they had available in green and they were awesome but had to return the front wheel hubs they rub badly on rim (almost stop tire fron turning) took back to hobby store they called traxxas the rep told us they new it rubbed and should self clearance I was shocked so I put plastic front hubs back on. I really was shocked rep told us to let it self clearance. I was going to ask if anyone has had same issues the truck is awesome besides that
Damn big ballin' lol How much in upgrades did it cost? I'm sure about to start ordering all I can and I'll have to modify those front hubs myself to not rub I'll prob try and get the grey aluminum for that reason. Help blend in my self mod. I'm excited brotha. I haven't even driven it yet
Spent a few hundred I attended a bash event max slash did awesome But on side note next day the esc died temp light came on after a few minutes on 4s just kept flashing motor esc not hot traxxas said send motor esc to them so now waiting for My motor esc to return wish they would fix the 6s esc Burned 2 up in udr put my xrt 8s esc in udr no problems now another in max slash it is great otherwise
Traxxas sent new parts also bought sway bars transformed truck I am by far a racer but all the people that complained about handling need to install sway bars
Imho it can be argued with the maxx on which to buy and all depends on the drivers wishes and the environment in which youll drive. Jumps and flips obvious the maxx. But just trails and tracks its the maxx slash no doubt. People are sleeping on this one. Thanks to them theyre available online still and ship quickly 😂
Would sledge arms fit on it? Gotta go wider and throw bigger tires on it.... Maybe than keep up with a kraton. Bone stock, faster and way heavier. Goota be those weak electronics or heavy resistant trx plugs... #1 bone with traxxas, i dont want to use your batts or esc. Make a roller all ready
This is a Badass SCT. I mean bad as a mf. There will be entire divisions based on this truck. Anyone that has the ability to get one that hasnt will regret it when they eventually do. I dont understand the negativity surroundin this one at all. Its impressive.
For the upgrades do each part a different color, mix and match and have none of them match like what they did with the VW Golf Harlequin. Would match the Rock N Roll paint for sure
Install sway bars truck is awesome want to see how someone who races thinks of the max slash with sway bars and proline mirage tires it should have came with the sway bars it transformed the truck
It's not hard to get a big collection going to the point of not driving em all very often. But this guy makes his money off of having them so it would make sense he should have anything new first ..
They don't have that sweet Tamiya and HOSIM metallic teal sky blue bro. You know there has to be retribution for that. Yes I realize it looks like the colors on a dragon fly yet that is part of the point. I don't think you want Tamiya and HOSIM to look better than us. Clips in the battery tray seems like s step back. Going to be a pretty penny to change those shock towers to metal.
To be fair, Someone at Traxxas thought it would be a good idea to advertise and highlight the speed of a short course truck. Most racers are not looking for a whole lot of speed, verses the handling and jumpimg ability.
Yes Mark Put that HIGH SPEED GEAR in there and send it. You know we all want to see it!!!!
Its going to fly off
I would do a colorful skittles build and use all the colors. Would fit the rock n roll body.
Yes upgrade the gearing. You opened the door we now have to walk through it. Lol
Great content as usual. Keep up the great work.
You know you'll get every color! 😃
Absolutely put speed gearing in! Why not lol
Came to visit family in McKinney I had to get myself the maxx slash today. First time going to the traxxas store cool experience!
Just got mine today, RED
were your springs too short? Mine have like half inch of play between the top of the spring and the bottom the collar (when unthreaded) Luckily I have extras from my Maxx & Sledge
Seen that at the LHS. So it’s not just you
@@nicholasstephey8475 it’s messed up, fixed her up good with extra springs I had
Mark you should answer this question. Was your front springs also to short?
Appreciate that rundown thanks, Traxxas put 70 + on the box , thanks for giving us idea 💡.
Never ceases to amaze me how convoluted traxxas gets with battery hold-downs, instead of just using freakin velcro straps
I prefer it this way. Only fits certain batterys, but its more secure imo
If they used Velcro y'all would whine about batteries coming out. There's no pleasing any of you people
They can’t patent Velcro straps.
@@bazis98 a lot of 1/8 off-road buggies use Velcro and considering how hard they crash there is no issue lol
They want you to buy their battery's.
I say get every mod available. Awesome video Mark
Man let the haters cry. This. Maxx Slash is badass. Only the brokies cry about "not spending the $700". It's bad ass. Period.
I always get stressed running in my neighborhood. Lol Just picked mine up thanks for the battery clip
Awesome Mark!!! I'm going to get blue one!! I would get green .. but I think that green looks a little too weird. I would prefer a darker green ... so blue it is.
On one hand I like the security of the traxxas battery hold, but I also like the versatility of velcro straps. Im fine with either really.
Orange arms, blue aluminum hub carriers. Orange shock caps to go with the blue bodies.
When they come out with the Prografix body...cause they will...Pink addition for sure!!!!
What about changing out the belted tires?
Yes gear it up all the way I'm ready to see the video
Insane colors
You should add c4 to it amd see how high it flies!! 😂
Just curious as i am wanting to get a maxx slash in future i see that it has a wheelie bar will this truck wheelie off the hop like a maxx thanks
Hi Mark, I'll take a vxl-3m esc and 2 merv center-diffs and a new bodyshell. Thank you! Lolol. Wishhh I had a store like that in my country.
Exclusive access holy shit! So pumped. You make me wanna get back on coke.

You should mix the accessory colors 🤩
I want to know 8f a slash can be made to a maxxslash ? 2 wheel drive.
I got mine this week too!! I want to see wider stance with some badlands or trenchers!! Or a more aggressive tire!!
4:54 Spark!!!!
Why didn’t he say anything about it lol
I got the Blue one this morning. Im going to put the 600series maxx servo with mine.
Wow i thought junk stores went out in the 70s
Whats the part number for the high speed gears?
High speed gears. I wonder if the rear vent holes are allowing too much air in the body and causing the lift.
What I'm most interested in knowing is whether, or not, the Wide-MAXX kit cab be use...and, how much wider (measured hex-to-hex) it is.
Will it do 70 with the body on
Hey buddy, will Traxxas let you do a full tour of their Traxxas facility, not just their store front? That would be cool if they did!!
I think he did a video on the actual Traxxas factory.
what camera are you running on the car and how did you mount it on there
The green is on point
I have a rustler vxl brushless and I got 65mph stock!
The shaking from the fpv makes it look more intense lol👍
How long has the max slash been out?
Yes high speed gears! Also more Traxxas nitro!
Nice hobby shop
You need to get the ARMMA body clip tethers and drill the battery clamp top to connect tether tp brace add 'R' clip's to them then yhey will not get lost, I have done this on a couple of my vehicles, I foundsome coloured ones that stand out.
ALL OF THE UPGRADES! Do it or you are not TRAXXAS ..... I double dare you!
I triple dog dare you ! 😆😅🤣😋
Go Fast.
I went to my local hobby shop to just get another battery and 3 people bought the Maxx Slash just in that time
Thanks MSM, love the content. Your thumbnails are killing me BTW, LOL!
Edit: Forgot to mention the trash cans, haha
Did you notice how they have it listed on the website for scale, Under scale it says MAXX so are there gonna be more MAXX scale vehicles? I'm curious!!!
Maybe if you cut slits in the front fenders to blend the air from under the body to stop it lifting.
Who is Eddy Lawson ? Oh, yeah. !!
Questions have you bought aluminum upgrades for Max slash.

Damn big ballin' lol

Spent a few hundred
I attended a bash event max slash did awesome
But on side note next day the esc died temp light came on after a few minutes on 4s just kept flashing motor esc not hot traxxas said send motor esc to them so now waiting for My motor esc to return wish they would fix the 6s esc
Burned 2 up in udr put my xrt 8s esc in udr no problems now another in max slash it is great otherwise
Traxxas sent new parts also bought sway bars transformed truck I am by far a racer but all the people that complained about handling need to install sway bars
Imho it can be argued with the maxx on which to buy and all depends on the drivers wishes and the environment in which youll drive. Jumps and flips obvious the maxx. But just trails and tracks its the maxx slash no doubt. People are sleeping on this one. Thanks to them theyre available online still and ship quickly 😂
Hey dude question, how do you mount your go pro???? Ive tried to use 3m but it never stays on. I need advice please and thanks!!!!!
I wanna see it at the indoor track that you usually go to 🤙
Would sledge arms fit on it? Gotta go wider and throw bigger tires on it.... Maybe than keep up with a kraton. Bone stock, faster and way heavier. Goota be those weak electronics or heavy resistant trx plugs... #1 bone with traxxas, i dont want to use your batts or esc. Make a roller all ready
Wide Maxx Slash!
70mph with the body on for it to be true. without the body on is a lie. the taking off like a plane is what the slash body does at speed.
Did you used traxxas batteries?
Not much into rc these days but I need that truck 👍
Mark dose it really need the upgrade parts and he'll yea put the high speed gears in lol 😆 thanks for sharing 👍
This is a Badass SCT. I mean bad as a mf. There will be entire divisions based on this truck. Anyone that has the ability to get one that hasnt will regret it when they eventually do. I dont understand the negativity surroundin this one at all. Its impressive.
Love it
Question, do you have your own designated parking spot at TRAXXAS? If not, you should. :)
I would cut some flaps into the hood give it some downforce and keep the front end from becoming a sail.
Send it you need to get an assortment of pinions and see just how fast you can push the stock motor/esc before it won’t go any faster
For the upgrades do each part a different color, mix and match and have none of them match like what they did with the VW Golf Harlequin. Would match the Rock N Roll paint for sure
Someone already did XRT front and back bulkheads with 8s is a rocket not sure what gearing he ran.....
Yes
Waiting to see the Monster and snap off versions.
Hands down I like it but you should try the echo crocs Hella comfy lol
WIDEMAXX KIT, MAXX SLEDGHAMMERS ,,,, Cut fenders?
Or please can we have a Maxx Rustler
Yeah man see what it can do with the hight speed gear
Go with blue for the upgrades
How do I contact you?
Fast Truck. Great video
Install sway bars truck is awesome want to see how someone who races thinks of the max slash with sway bars and proline mirage tires it should have came with the sway bars it transformed the truck
I would be surprised If you got 70mph with the body on
I so want one...
Hey Mark I officially have an xmaxx after years of trying to get one I officially do I got the blue platinum
MAXX Slash Ultimate
must be nice to own every rc that exists
It's not hard to get a big collection going to the point of not driving em all very often. But this guy makes his money off of having them so it would make sense he should have anything new first ..
@@pledgeyourallegiance8530 he's sponsored by Traxxas he lives in texas as soon a new rc release comes out he has it
I hope it can setup to race on dirt
Good afternoon brother enjoy the weekend cool video

Get the green and do orange upgrades
Hi speed gears mark🎉
Still recommend the mojave,it will not parachute,or grip roll,watch amain hobby vidio,I'm traxxas guy but I'd get mojave
Screw those factory bodies. Having no problem dumping that kind of money and overpriced Traxxas, make it your own man.
do a widemaxx kit
Traxxas max slash Just perfect 💥👍
France 🇨🇵
Do the upgrade
It must get a wheelie bar to keep it from trying to take flight and get up to full speed
They don't have that sweet Tamiya and HOSIM metallic teal sky blue bro.
You know there has to be retribution for that.
Yes I realize it looks like the colors on a dragon fly yet that is part of the point.
I don't think you want Tamiya and HOSIM to look better than us. Clips in the battery tray seems like s step back. Going to be a pretty penny to change those shock towers to metal.
€849,- in the Netherlands. Worth it?
No i don't think
No man
There are arrma mojave, traxxas udr and tlr super baja ray for that price
Do the skittle color combo
Hahahhahah the guy shows 61 and doesn't even show the run 😂🤣
To be fair, Someone at Traxxas thought it would be a good idea to advertise and highlight the speed of a short course truck. Most racers are not looking for a whole lot of speed, verses the handling and jumpimg ability.
It's all about advertising for sales. Numbers.
I think the Widemaxx kit would be cool if it worked. I say do it
