So wait, they include a new ESC with a 7.4v BEC that can only be adjusted with a BT module(not included) and also didn't include a servo that can handle the extra voltage?? Big side eyes for 530.00
The receiver is only rated for 6 volts. If you change the BEC voltage to 7.4 volts, you'll fry the stock receiver!!! If you want to run 7.4 volts you'll need to change BOTH the servo and the receiver/ radio combo. At that point, you might as well spring for all new electronics. Kinda dumb to make an ESC that has a BEC capable of 7.4 volts if the stock receiver and servo are not compatible with the higher voltage. Traxxas is REALLY out of touch these days. Not just on price, but on basic common sense.
Seriously, they put a servo that can't handle the ESC and for that price, no cooling fan on the motor or ESC, yeah no thank you. They really don't like taking care of their customers
530 and doesn’t even come with sway bars or adjustable turnbuckles? This is obviously overpriced even for a 1/8th scale. Unless they do what they did and add batteries and chargers like the max slash, no one should buy this unless they are content creators
Too fast for newbies, too slow for pro's, too weak for bashing, too almost too bulky for hardcore racing. just get a 6s typhon for fun and build something you'd wanna race.
I would never buy the Jato VXL at this price. You can get a 6s 1/8 buggy around the $500 price point. $499 for an Arrma 6s Typhon. $489 for Team Corally Spark B6. $419 for Arrma Typhon TLR Roller (add your own electronics). $349 for Team Corally Spark B6 Roller (add your own electronics). You can run these buggies on 4s or you can pick up a 4s Team Corally Syncro4 for $329. Earth to Traxxas-what planet are you on?
I saw that video as well. Now we all know he is getting his stuff for free, but it was hysterical. I have no opinion on this car other than I did not buy it. Went with a TC Syncro4, Typhon 223 (for my daughter), and the inferno neo 3?0 vs for my wife. I have plenty of Slashes, but decided to try two new brands (for me), and old school Kyosho.
That price is ridiculous for that 530 that’s crazy
@@azbrown821 that's traxxas

530 is wild

@RcFanaticYt False, I love Traxxas products. Traxxas prices are CRAZY.
So wait, they include a new ESC with a 7.4v BEC that can only be adjusted with a BT module(not included) and also didn't include a servo that can handle the extra voltage?? Big side eyes for 530.00
yea..they did that🤣🙈
reading this already gave me a headache. WTH is Traxxas thinking????
The receiver is only rated for 6 volts. If you change the BEC voltage to 7.4 volts, you'll fry the stock receiver.
Mines on order, cant wait

I can't pick it up till the 7th but I did go in and buy the orange one today.
The Arrma is even more

They took the titanium shafts out of the shocks. CRAZY LOL
Nice car i decided im gonna get the Bigfoot and trick it out
that would be a better choice
@JayTeeRC that jato is really awesome
Eh I just bought the Punisher 4s under 400. .. 😮 these cars killin me. Lol 😅
JayTee we are local Jackson County come race with us!
It’s fast man I drove the crap out of it
Even the XMaxx doesn't get the metal gear servo.
Instant upgrade, like most RTRs.
$530 i'll pass better off getting Arrma Typhon 6S
Agreed , i just posted same comment before reading lol.
💯

💯
They don't have to care about their consumers, the fan boys and folks that don't know any better will slurp up their BS regardless.
Is it lighter than the Arma Typhon?
bout the same
Expensive backslash smh , should have got a typhon 6s for that price
