Thanks for this awesome entertainment and content. This always brings the best out of me and loads of others. This is the youtube channel that comes to my mind first when I am down or sad. Thanks Kevin
I do not have enough experience with other brands but do have several Traxxas Slash, Stampede and new Rustler, so I can not say they are best in the world but to me they are excellent. My grandson is 5 we keep them in training mode and just beat the snot out of them. Yes I have broken a few parts but nothing expensive and replacing them with RPM breaking is almost a thing of the past.
‘I thought that’s got to have done some damage” “it did go up didn’t it” Subscribe! Get this guy over a million subs in the next month and get a chance to see him on the telly. Here’s hoping. To the moon! Kev, great films, all of ‘em!
I took my slash 2wd to a skatepark near the college campus I attend and broke 3 parts on it. A-arm, the kingpin for it (which still used e-clips), and my servo saver. I had never broken the servo saver in all of the crashes it's been through.
R/C Insanity well they are strong and for most peaple price range thay great because not every one has 1100 to spend on a toy but if you do thats ok. my 2wd drive is stock other then front arm changed them caused i could also the slash is not a stunt truck it’s not made for jumps like the xxmax
Im suprised the slash breaks all the time with how light it is. BTW the ARRMA Senton 6s is the king of short courses :) give it a try kev ita beastly, cheers
Kevin Talbot Slash on 3s is like a 100mph go cart. Senton on 6s is like a 100mph 1/8 mile dragster/ offroad racer. The weight of the Senton really helps it in rough terrain where as the slash is all over the place. The Senton also turns nicely and doesn't roll every two seconds.
I'll be honest. I had 6 Slash's, 2 were stock 2wd & 4x4 my oldest played with b4 going 1/8. He learn to drive with them. The other 4 were 100mph+ 2wd & 4x4, as well as 2 bashers that were beat to hell & killed my wallet through parts. I dumped all that in the tub when the V2 Senton 6s came. The red fireball ESC was gone, the body was thick as most Prolines, & the system in it made in the most powerful 1/10 SCT. To drive it is to know *NOTHING* can beat it. I still have a Slash 4x4 somewhere, maybe in pieces, but I haven't touched it since I bought the Senton.
Steve's buggy got up there, great bashing, I want to get an X-max myself, but want to try other types first, before I get another MT, it's a beast for sure.
Great vid as always kev I love your videos I have a slash 4x4 as well and mine has a castle sidewinder sct combo and I love it the slash is such an awesome truck
Kevin, would you please do a video on your slash and what components you used to make it "bullet proof". Or the upgrades that you have on it. Thank you in advance if you do it :) Love ur chnl!
ahhhhh. Arrma has all 1:8 trucks that can take it, Kev. And check the 1/10 scale $299 blx models now... New bearings at the most for any upgrade fresh but very ready out of the box. The XMAXX is certainly in a "league of it's own" but a great designer is one that can have every truck take the big hits and drive nice and wrench like a user friendly machine should. . I love my Slash vxl 2wd and ER-2.0. Both sexy trucks but heavily modded out of necessity. Get on Arrma dude. It's ok to love em all. They're what they call an entire new animal.... The Arrma, I mean. No hate, guys. Ahead of time here, please. No brand hating at all. But if I'm gonna put some new guys on rc, and I wanna have as bright and as many as I can -friends into the fun, I'm gonna say Arrma for the modular positives all day long. I know you can see the difference. Work on anything and work on Arrma and easy to see the difference.
Why do traxxas put crappy small rear inner bearings on the rear hubs? Brand new on the second run mine seized. After a strip down I noticed and replaced them with the rpm rear hubs and never had an issue since. Traxxas need to fit them from factory.
Imad Morsli I’m sure arrma would be stronger then the Xmaxx if they made a 1/6 scale and the chassis would probably have to be plastic instead of aluminum.
@@whatswiththissassylostchilld Not really, the only point in plastic is cost. The Aluminum just cant be flat, thats all. TRAXXASS fans will always say plastic is stronger because they know no better and justify the high price they pay for 90% plastic RC cars.
The Traxxas Slash is pretty strong to I took it to the skatepark and was bashing it around and the only thing that happened to it was the shocks popped off
Arial flying indurance tests yes strong truck !!! Ok car test like my UDR real car drive over only the two front wheel aria ( bonet)\front window aria! .. if only u had an old one of each and done car test!:) Arial flying big ball basher style UDR,0.1/xmax9.98/10lol,arma 9.98/7! ....Clean jumps / toughness and how flexible the plastic is! I see a Xmas hit a wall at full speed in slow motion too ! It's got some mad flex!! ( Damage ! Pinion broke or came away from spur!!
Love how the young, the middle-aged and the old get’s together at that park. Thumbs up.
“It’s the worlds toughest Rc car” *wheel breaks literally after* Well done Kev 😂😂😂🤦♂️
Lol XD
Thats gotta be embarrassing
awesome Kev! i have actually broke my chassis on my Slash 4X4! Broke a part almost clean of! Love all your bashes man!
mine is cracked!
@@KevinTalbotTV i' m not the only one! yeeeeeee
I cracked the chassis in half so many times I don't even remember what it looked it unbroken.
HardstyleZ RC same lol
Thanks for this awesome entertainment and content. This always brings the best out of me and loads of others. This is the youtube channel that comes to my mind first when I am down or sad. Thanks Kevin
thanks bro, glad I can help :)
Greetings from the Netherlands. You got my brother and me into Rc!
Hope you're enjoying the hobby
That is the first time I have ever seen a wheel foam come out while leaving the rubber on the rim... only on Kev's channel!
“Somethings broke on the back” proceeds to launch it 30 feet in the air. Haha well done kev, love your channel !!
I do not have enough experience with other brands but do have several Traxxas Slash, Stampede and new Rustler, so I can not say they are best in the world but to me they are excellent.

Yes I have broken a few parts but nothing expensive and replacing them with RPM breaking is almost a thing of the past.
These videos make me want to take my RCs to a skatepark!
Those steel driveshafts on the slash are a huge upgrade to the stock plastic shafts.
Compare the arrma senton to the traxxas slash. And the traxxas stampede to the arrma granite 4x4.
That is what really made me like arrma
yes!
1:43 that’s why the motor is literally called ripper😂

Xmaxx is awesome man I also love that body mod on the slash
So good to see a good ol' slash bash love it
definitely my favorite channel! always quality vids cant wait till your next kev!
thanks buddy
The xmaxx is truly the best basher
Me and my daughter cleaning are two wheel drive slash as up for winter when race time comes around
Always entertaining....even the older vids...👍👍
Traxxas' new slogan should be Kev Tested, Kev Approved!
I took my slash 2wd to a skatepark near the college campus I attend and broke 3 parts on it. A-arm, the kingpin for it (which still used e-clips), and my servo saver. I had never broken the servo saver in all of the crashes it's been through.
8S X-maxx is world class and ground breaking, Traxxas slash now looking it's age (Decade old now).
Driftomaniacs agreed, got a Maxx of my own, used to have a slash 4x4, had to do quite a few updates to make it as good as an x maxx.
i still say a slash is a good first and strong ass hell
BeePee’s Blitz the VXL-3s won’t overheat if you add the optional cooling fan.
Rugger 878 slash is great, I just feel that th X-Maxx is stronger in its box stock form, compared to the slash in stock form.
R/C Insanity well they are strong and for most peaple price range thay great because not every one has 1100 to spend on a toy but if you do thats ok. my 2wd drive is stock other then front arm changed them caused i could also the slash is not a stunt truck it’s not made for jumps like the xxmax
The slash is probably the best ever. You can bash or race and size course with it. The price is also good on em.
Im suprised the slash breaks all the time with how light it is. BTW the ARRMA Senton 6s is the king of short courses :) give it a try kev ita beastly, cheers
Slash takes it man, everything breaks when pushed to the limit

Megasty15 you know the truth👍👍👍👍👍👍
I've raced against an Armma Senton at the track I normally race at. I can barely keep up with it if I don't crash.
I love the XO-1 driveshafts on your Slash... and the stock A-Arms.... haha!
Steve's buggy got up there, great bashing, I want to get an X-max myself, but want to try other types first, before I get another MT, it's a beast for sure.
As always, well done, Kev
Great vid as always kev I love your videos I have a slash 4x4 as well and mine has a castle sidewinder sct combo and I love it the slash is such an awesome truck
Both amazing trucks
Was Steve smoking that refer in the beginning of the video when he sprayed himself with dirt?!?! XD

Kev I love the body on the slash 🤘🤘😍😍
Very good video well done
Wooooow you are so crazy it flew into the air
So can you look at the lite hawk crusher Mt
The slash takes a beating
1:59 8s Steve is brazen away
Always winning vids man! Pure entertainment!
"Or downgrade if you're a racer." LMAO

Awesome vids man I have a slash 4x4 1/16 what would be a good battery for it?
Your voice is good.
4:42 FINISH HIM!
I been waiting for the slash
I love your videos. Keep ut the great work man!!!

An arrma outcast would have. Try the notorious.
Imad Morsli I’m sure arrma would be stronger then the Xmaxx if they made a 1/6 scale and the chassis would probably have to be plastic instead of aluminum.

Fem Latra what you mean by aluminum can’t be flat? And I just feel like something for being 1/6 scale and weighs quite a bit will bend it over time.
Twilight _Kid IS it better to snap the chassis right in half? on my outcast i use metal braces and a homemade tower to tower brace
KrispyRC depends on how you design the chassis. Braces would work but I not sure how it would hold up when the 1/6 scale rc weighs 20 plus.
kev can you use a wheel without its rubber thing inside see if its behave different
Cool video kevin its awsome.
Edit:Wow thanks for the heart kevin your awsome. That was fast like a slash
Just make one long vid man.
But Nice work man! Love it💚
I am going to get a Traxxas udr on next wekend What uppgrades is good to buy to it? sorry for my English i am from sweden
I also have the slash 4x4 with Some rpm upgrades bud keep killing the wheel hub things😶😁
you said it it broke ARRMA ftw sry, love your vids keep em coming !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Kevin Talbot do you have a traxxas slash 4x4 vxl? or ultimate
Be good if you landed some jumps properly on the downramp, yeah it wouldnt smash them up or strength test them but would take more skill :)
where do you get that bash sack?
What wheels and tires were on the slash 4x4?
Looked like 8s Steve was smoking a lefty ! Hahahhahaa no wonder his buggy went so high
The Traxxas Slash is pretty strong to I took it to the skatepark and was bashing it around and the only thing that happened to it was the shocks popped off
Please do a review on the ftx carnage brushless truggy version.😍
Thanks so much.
8s Steve set the bar on first jump today with a lil destruction
Love your vids❤️
Hey Kevin, what pinion and spur gear do you use for your X-maxx?
What’s the link to the gears kev I have already gone through 4 pinion gears
Thanks for the video kev love your content
Comment if Kevin is the best TH-cam or ever.
YEAH BUDDY

Are you still running the vxl in the slash. Awesome video Kevin
Also kevin got any idea why my traxxas trx4 makes a juddering sound from the axail when on full lock
probably the cv joints, put endpoints down in the radio
@@KevinTalbotTV fixed it thanks kev
Great video
Cool video
What do you do with your busted trucks??
You should review the Traxxas bandit
There is a joint in 8s Steve’s moth a 0:49
My losi Baja Rey would never take that abuse good vid
That’s ok a udr wouldn’t either
You should take all your brand new RC out

I don’t understand I go through the rear diff on my mini e Reno and I’m on # 6
Another great bash video! Destroy Destroy Destroy! Lol! 👍👍👍👍👍
