I am a Kraton 8s owner, but I just love how the XRT looks, especially in blue, so beautiful!
Yes these do look slick
Same mate , I'm 100% getting the Ultimate after seeing it , But I want my 8s Arrma V2 outcast first !!
The new ultimate models are beautiful especially the xrt but I feel they could have done more to the Xmaxx. I was expecting them to modify the battery trays and revise the body mount and include the roof skid along with the other good changes
The fact that they didn't is very disappointing. Great video brother 💯 🤜 🤛
Great viewing Guy!! I was lucky to get my XMAXX Ultimate in green Thursday. It’s spectacular 😊 Only thing I changed was to the green HD upper and lower arm’s because the stock black ones are not HD!
great video. Amongst many things I love on my XRT are the snap on and off body. It saves on time + hassle and hasnt failed on me yet. Fun car.
Do you hear that Traxxas!! “Everyone explodes their traxxas tires”!!
From the man himself!
Fix this ongoing, never ending problem Traxxas…
I’m debating between the ultimate cry and non ultimate. The stock tires on the non ultimate are no good? If that’s the case, the $1500 price is worth it since 4 tires is $200 right?
Why would they fix a "problem" when it continues to make them huge profits? I don't see that happening anytime soon.
😂 this is such a ridiculous take. dboots blow up 5x faster, running on recommended batteries. Sledgehammer tires require 6s and ABUSE to destroy for the most part.
It's still Traxxas to much for us poor people 😅
Just like a loaded Raptor R or a TRX
I did my XRT exactly like that as soon as the aluminum upgrades were released, obviously no belted tires but I still have more than $500 in it...
Really?! I’m debating between the ultimate XRT and regular. Are those upgrades worth it? So it really does save you money?! Noway.
@@joemomma707You will definitely save money buying either one from Traxxas already built, You ask are the upgrades worth it, I'm not sure if any of this stuff is worth it but its the hobby I like, and the aluminum upgrades are really nice and fit perfectly....I did an XRT in the blue accessories and a Snap-On Xmaxx with the red aluminum accessories....So is it worth it IDK but if you enjoy this hobby and have the money hey spend your money on what you want...Go for it!!!
HobbyQuarters is awesome! Maybe one day I’ll make the trek from New Jersey…..Gonna have a pocket full of cash, you can bet on that!
Just a way for Traxxas to get rid of overpriced aluminum parts they cant sell. Meanwhile my HPI 2wd SC Jumpshot Flux with The ProLine 1967 Ford F100 body is finished and she looks sweet and balanced and super lightweight and crazy simple to work on and clean. Guy i think im in love with this platform and it handles like a race truck drifting around like a champ on the grass.
1:04 😂😂😂😂 my man is like I need to spin this bad boy
The ultimate should have come with Velcro battery trays And HD arms Especially for 1500
Nah not for me but good suggestion
That is the only overpriced Traxxas I agree about
Definitely, it's almost $2000 with a traxxas charger & batteries
Is it worth it?
@@joemomma707 no
Beautiful... hey rich people have to buy stuff too everyone calm down 😮😅😊
The comments on anything rc always sound like a bunch of little girls complaining about the mean girls 😂 If you dont like it because it's a Traxxas product, its really ok. We dont need to know! Buy and drive whatever you choose!!! Been a Traxxas fan since 06 and never disappointed.. geeesh ladies 😅
hey if you really like traxxas and over paying for subpar electronics we really don't need to know! ROFL
Supreme irony.
lol
*_Thiiiiiis is what is absolutely bonkers craaazy... THIS "Ultimate" spec. should be 999.99 USD.. Everyone is sooo brainwashed & fooled by how disgusting markup on these things actually is!_*
_I will still be buying one, but am well aware of how overpriced this "collectors" truck truly is!_
So what they are doing WORKS😜
@@rcguygarage _We have forced these prices upon ourselves! The only way any manufacturer could ever get the hint, is if nobody were actually buying them! Equally as such.. they could probably come out and say.. "Only 500 Made" & price these limited editions at 2K. Sickly.. they'd still sell!_
@@SOMNIOHM that's called SMART MARKETING👍💯
We should do a shot every time The auto tune is used . MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!
Dang you'll get WASTED🤣😂😜👍💯
I'll be down in a couple weeks. I will definitely be purchasing one!
Air control gonna change with belted tires
Sure is beau-ti-ful 🥰
Totally agree
Traxxas should do a kit. Without tires,body and electronics for a good price. You can build a better truck for less money. Here in Germany the ultimate is 1800 euros. Absolut crazy.
They don't care cause they already know what people will do to it🤫😜
@@rcguygarage
Yes. And we all know, we will get one.😊😊😊
I built my own 5 full option XRT's one of each color Black with grey aluminum parts,Red,Blue,Green,Orange so they cost way more than the ultimate edition...now y'all are making me think I overpaid for all my XRT's and supported a RC mega mogul conglomerate...😢 Long live TRAXXAS
I think they did a good job with the looks and all. I just think with all that alloy. Makes the vehicle that much more heavier an that’s going to be a downer cause with the added weight causes more parts to fail. But a great looking car. The Xmaxx has my same thought.
I’m grabbing me an XMaxx ultimate for sure!
And THIS is who it's for👍💯
@@rcguygarage Haha yep! It’ll be my first XMaxx. I got a bonus from work and money as gifts so best time to put out the money! Have $900 and might get more. It’ll be cheap for me 😂😂 Merry Christmas to you and your family brother!
@@jasondemers8522 I'll definitely tell you that the visual WOW factor is definitely there for sure.
@@rcguygarage Yeah just torn on the color Lol. Probably get the green. Only thing I’ve seen is it looks like the steering arms snap at the ends. So if that happens I’ll put on stock probably or hot racing
@@jasondemers8522 yes they have from day one when they offered them🤣😂 gotta have a BANKING point I mean breaking point🤣😂
Cool truck for sure!
Yea , issue is … it’s still a Traxxas 😂 I mean they all have their issues but Traxxas has always been nothin but constant breakages … CHEAP CHEAP anyway who knows maybe they figured it out .. maybe
Dude. Your quality of video on new kits is impressive and why I watch your channel to see close up hd of the chassis as u spend lots of time going over it, but….. Don’t do that scary face pop emoji of u saying impressive. It’s not impressive. It’s cheesy and honestly dumb. But love everything else about your video.. if u say u will stop doing that I’ll subscribe! 😂👍👍
IMPRESSIVE 😳🤣😂
@@rcguygarage hahahahaha. I’m not subscribing!!!
@@TurbineJetSA That's all right it seems like most don't They just watch the content 🤣😂🤣😂
Soon we will be buying bash insurance for these 1400 dollar plus RC. Hey great idea! RC car shield 😁🛡️ 🤣😆.
🤣😂🤣😂
“Super Dave Osborne stuff “… 👍
Am i mistaken, but I'm pretty sure xrt arms are the same as the widemaxx, they don't make HD xrt arms that are beefier than stock. However, Xmaxx ultimate comes with it's regular arms, so the customer can upgrade them to HD.
YES I believe you are correct but can't edit now🤣😂🤣😂
@@rcguygarage no problem. Overall, unless they come out with a revised xmaxx with some key changes these are pretty disappointing to me. No roof skid or HD arms on an ultimate model is a joke. All the aluminum is them offloading inventory they could never sell because their parts are much more expensive than aftermarket. Lame
Qhat a beautiful looking rig!!
For $1500 Traxxas can keep it ! You're talking almost $2000 with a traxxas charger & batteries, not worth it ! I'll stick with my Nitros ! Traxxas loves to over charge
I dont know how you do this but u sound and looks like captain price form call of duty :)
😂🤣😂🤣
All the aluminum upgrades would run somewhere around $550ish I believe (not sure if I counted the steering links in that since that doesn't seem like such a good idea to me), so if you were planning on getting most of those items anyway then the $1500 price point is not unreasonable...not to mention over and above that you get better shock shafts, servo, tires, spur and pinion gears. As a package deal though you aren't seeing the kind of discounts/value that ARRMA provides when you step-up to their EXB variants. That XRT looks really, really good.
The cost of the aluminum upgrades are far above 500$, I work at a LHS and price parts ALL day. Seems like youre lying. MSRP on traxxas hopup parts is ridiculously high, considering how affordable GPM can be.
@@JT-np1op OK internet warrior, "...somewhere around.." and "...ish" means ballpark in case you have a difficult time with conversational english. I didn't take a spreadsheet or calculator and figure this all out. I had a QUICK look at the Traxxas website and did a ROUGH estimate in my head, hence the "..somewhere around..." and "...ish." In other words, most people should be able to recognize this is a SWAG, but close enough for government work. As an LHS employee with all this information either committed to memory or at least at your fingertips, how about you be more useful than I was and take an accounting of all the upgrade parts and provide the accurate total cost. Please show your work so we can be sure that you are not lying. Also, please include tax and for those that are not local also provide shipping cost so we have a full accounting of the total expense.
Would have loved to visit and buy that outcast!
👍💯🤟
They put metal spur an pinion and aluminum motor mount washers on them to
Yes 👍💯
All that upgrading but nothing for the motor end caps .... should be aluminum not plastic...
Why?
Got the Ultimate used on ebay with 2 batteries and 2 bodies for the price of the non Ultimate without batteries after tax.
That's what's called a SCORE
😊
just wish they would of put the light kit on them, but traxxas are smart about marketing an taking our money. Dang
YEP 👍💯
It's a lot of money. Not sure it's worth it. What quality is the aluminum?
6160
Oh sorry you asked QUALITY😂🤣 unknown I'm not a metallurgist 🤫😜
Boom Ultimate 🎉🎉🎇🎆
ULTIMATE 💥BOOM💥
@@rcguygarageagreed😉👍🏽💯 however is it worth spending $1500 plus tax, it you have an XRT already, hey guy honestly will you be buying one? Great video brother, hope you & family have a wonderful Christmas 🎄
@@vitodambra72 will it CONVINCE me to try AGAIN😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Traxxas has the HD on on the XRT as the wide kit supposed to be HD 🤷🏻♂️
I can't remember🤷 they looked like regular arms
"it's not that bad for the price.."That's easy for the shop owner to say when he's selling it 😂..because it is. For year Traxxas said aluminum isn't as durable as their plastics..now..for 1600..I guess that's changed. Same crap esc same crap 2085x..Buy more junk for more money. Sad..and fyi..I'm in Texas, I can chunk a rock at the "factory and store"..it's all imported nothing is made in the USA. I don't have a problem with that, but many believe the opposite..just fyi.
Traxxas does make some interesting vehicles.
Buy an xrt, then must add a steering servo, a bell crank, a new wing mount,replace the soft monkey metal gears, eventually a new esc.
Really it's a 700 dollar vehicle, NOT 1400 ( in Canada).
Way better value purchasing an Arrma EXB, way better build quality, no upgrades required.
You can purchase more batteries ( more run time) for the Arrma, and it's still more economical than the XRT.😮
But it's good to have options👍💯 Plus Traxxas always has to leave upgrade ability on the table 🤣😂
You do know the Ultimate addresses all those issues right?
Are you pulling the trigger? Hmm
Traxxas needs to get the castle contract again The VX l's are garbage Motors are good ESC is trash
I get it but they are taking the safe inhouse route
I get that
There's a name I haven't heard in a long time( Super Dave Osborne 😅)
Yes🤣😂
Didn't u say xmaxx/xrt is garbage and belongs in a trash can? Metal parts make other parts weaker.
YEP! Doesn't change the fact it's still "looks pretty" 😂🤣
@@rcguygarage you Crack me up!
@@jessjoshwyatt3571 I can only try🤣😂
Uhm so how much is this total ?for this model ?
Hi there…love your videos and I’m also from Massachusetts. I wanted to ask you for your total opinion on the new XRT Ultimate Unlimited? Thinking about buying one this week. Thanks
If you have the money buying the ultimate is a good option
@@rcguygarage ok thanks I appreciate it.
Not that this is really an upgrade in a video i saw on youtube about the xrt or xmaxx ultimate I forget which one but i believe I saw the motor mount washers too.
Yes I didn't bother filming that as with the XRT it's far too deep inside to see with a camera
@rcguygarage I believe it's on the cover for the center driveshaft but not 100% percent sure. I'm new to owning even an xmaxx so I'm still learning things about mine. I'll have to take a ride to Hobby Quarters I live in New Hampshire.
@@jared1401 yeah I converted my X-Maxx "that I hated" into a Mongrelized XRT👍💯
@@rcguygarage I'm actually watching that series right now!
6061? Not worth it.
Why not?
Rc bella,ma troppo grande!!
Dovrebbero dare scala come Erevo
Un saluto 🤚
Hey rc guy garage. My buddy and I are going sunday am. I'm pursuing a xmaxx and xrt ultimate. You free to meet us there??
You definitely picking one heck of an RC between the two. Unfortunately no it was a rough work week
Damnn!! He's picking up a max slash. Would have been a cook video for ya!!
I’ve built my losi 1/8 nitro kit for as much as this, ridiculous
its an Engineering Dream. Love this Hobby
What’s sad is that you could buy a Losi 5t 2.0 for that price. The Losi is 10 times what that xrt could ever be. Just insane pricing.
We’re is that hobby shop wow look the stuff
They need to give us A 10's / 12's xmaxx/xrt
Typically there’s higher value at higher prices
Did yours come with the faster gearing? My xrt ultimate did not. I thought it was supposed to
Does not come with anything "extra" 😲😜
Guy , how much is your LHS selling the older versions of the 4s outcast ? Or was that the 2.5 ?
That is the V2 last one just call them and see if it's still even there
@@rcguygarage I’m just curious, you’re 3 states over from me lol did you even say it was on sale ? I figure you realize I’m not a newbie by now . I like my lhs but they don’t like dealing with horizon as much as traxxas , they don’t appreciate the sales after paying full price themselves which makes no sense to me because they must get refunded the difference, probably a lot of paperwork, and they’re up towards where wealthy people are . I went in there yesterday and spent 50$ on two titanium axles lol , do I need titanium no for fifty bucks I can buy all the axles and build another arrma , so I do appreciate trying keep lhs is buis . Your guys are more practical , AND DO THE RIGHT THING , my lhs could do so much better if they were more honest and advertised sales but they really think just like traxxas , or New Yorkers”” I was going buy the new kraton but I still have a exb roller I bought on sale . I was going use the information to break there chops , I’d buy a xxmaxx if they honor the 10% off the old owner always gave me paying cash , but they’re tight lol . Merry Christmas 🎄 to you and your family.
I don't really like the XRT trays I have batteries that fit in my Xmaxx that don't fit in my XRT Ultimate
Hey I got a question trying to pick between the losi dbxle 2.0 and traxxas Xrt which one is better ?
It's not what one is better the Losi is Performance weight the XRT is more bash weight
The traxxas aluminum hubs are garbage. You can only fit traxxas tires without rubbing on the hubs. Proline and Jconcept tires will rub. If you want to run the traxxas aluminum hubs, you will need to buy extended shafts.
Please help me! First RC ever. I am debating between the ultimate and the regular xrt.
Are these parts worth the xtra $465? Because with the regular I have to buy the Bluetooth which is $34 and with the ultimate, it comes with the Bluetooth.
I will be doing light jumps. I’m looking to drive it fast Offroad.
I am not the type that likes to work on things.
How much is it for the belted tires alone? $200?😢
Do I need belted tires? How
If you have the money and that's not an issue just buy the ultimate. Take your time and slowly learn to handle it. Learn maintenance, read the manual and just have fun
Did you made your purchase? Im still debating on the X-Maxx Ultimate or the Base one. It will be my first RC ever too!
What a cop out you guys said nothing about the cheap spur and pinion gears, or reliability of the ESC, if that the same just grab the original XRT,
🤣😂🤣😂
Oh you mean the needed failure point in the gears to save other components (steel gears installed) or the same play it safe ESC that everyone replaces with Castle or Max 6 or more🤣😂🤣😂
Don’t be a street queen lol 😆
For guys with that extra OT MONEY they hide from the wife for RC CARS they can't F,ING DRIVE! ITS A WALL DUDE!
lol
That’s why they love traxxas it really is better for lower level skilled drivers and if you’re a sender you’re not going appreciate arrma unless your a really good driver , traxxas very easy to use too , not much tunning no body clips and the main parts stay out of the elements
They should've made it 1/5 scale
@@reilym979 why
@rcguygarage to Compete with the Arrama, which is a better performer being bigger
@@reilym979 I don't think Traxxas feels it needs to compete with anything. They are their own company by themselves. It's the other companies that are trying to do things to compete with. Traxxas is my take. I could be wrong
X-maxx body??
Huh??
What kind of body is that on that XRT Ultimate? It doesn't look like a regular XRT?@@rcguygarage
@@YourMom-k6d it is, just slightly different graphics
It looks completely different. It looks taller or something. Maybe it is just the truck itself and the way it is built?@@rcguygarage
@@YourMom-k6d maybe without the wheels on the stand gives that illusion.
To much aluminum ill keep mine as is lol
They put a lot of aluminum in unnecessary parts . The should of upped the electronics
The toughest Traxxas is all stock 💯 but lots of R/C cars are most durable out of the box.... anything I've upgraded broke....leave it stocks it will last longer for sure...
@@andyb9994only upgrade the monkey metal stuff
@andyb9994 all depends on situation and what you're doing in my experiences
@@andyb9994 all these RC cars come with weak spots . They just wanna get us in the door to spend money on their upgrades
Instead of changing the poor gears and electronics, they added unnecessary parts. FAILURE
Most are already sold and gone. SMART MARKETING
