@@noahmiller876 yup I agree. I have a Typhon 6s and wanted a JATO to go with it. But a 4s for the same price as a Arrma 6s🤔. If I get one it would be the 2s and I can make it better than the vxl cheaper. Or they need to follow suit on the Fireteam to get some people hooked on the vxl buy at least knocking $100+ off for a black Friday sale. The Fireteam was 1/2 off 2 years ago and that's why I ended up with it as I was not going to pay $700+ out the door when they put them out. But $399, yes please and thank you. And more people ended up with them, then word of mouth after the sale had more people buy them at full price. Traxxas needs to learn from that. Or they're gonna have tons of the vxl sitting around. 🤙
I have a few Traxxas cars, but at the price point of the new Jato VXL I would take the Typhon 6S for sure. Also, Traxxas cannot include adjustable links on the VXL version? Costs of add-ons to be able to do basic tuning on the car have to be added to the total price for most.
@@johnnystrand8433 They have buyers with eyes and brains actually capable of seeing value in things. Take the 3s Typhon for example, plastic gears on the diffs and plastic pivot balls, just plastic where it shouldn't be, a chassis not as strong, a body with annoying clips, poor shocks, worse and typically more expensive parts, etc etc. You have to consider all factors before passing quick judgment. Don't be so shortsighted.
@truerc lol You read a lot more into my reply than you should have. I agree with the Arrma Typhon 3s. It has major weak points and short comings. But the Jato barely goes 20 mph. I guess that means it's unbreakable ?
The VXL version looks great. I wasn't expecting to see the 540XL in there. It should be a great performer judging by what a Hoss performs like with a 4S esc and battery.. I'm fine with Traxxas continuing to evolve their basic 1/10 4x4 chassis. It's a good design and it's easy to modify and work on. Great to see some new basic shocks with threaded upper perches. Those are long overdue.
These are really cool. 1/8 buggies are my absolute favorite RC platform, so it's great to see Traxxas getting into it. I think they are most fun on a track, though. They like a relatively smooth surface so out in the wild I prefer a truck with bigger tires. 1/8 race buggies are super expensive so I'd love to see more interest in budget 1/8 racing with these and Arrma buggies.
The Jato VXL 4s version, gets the larger 540XL 2400kv motor. It should be a little cheaper. Considering, the competition have true 1/8 scale 6s buggies. I like it though, cheap parts & everywhere from Traxxas.
Not so many Traxxas haters here 👍👍 Not sure if I would have got the 2S model but the VXL is a definite 💯 Traxxas distracted us with the 2S model for last week or so then BAM here is the 4S coming soon....yeah I'll take it!!!!
Thanks for the video. How well will the VXL tires do in grass? Are the tires between the two interchangeable? I wonder if they'll come out with any creative "headlight" options for it. Hmmmm. Have any thoughts? Thanks again.
Hello my friend the new jato's look really good, plus how cool would it be to see the VXL jato in A main at a roar event that would be great iam excited I know what I want for Christmas. Thanks brother for the preview. Traxxas is doing some really cool stuff, yes iam definitely a traxxas fan boy always was and will be for long time, there durable and parts are nicely priced Thanks your friendly neighborhood hotel DOORMAN William from NYC FORGETTABOUTIT ✨️ 😂
Nice, now I have some upgrades for my "Backslash". I do like the beefed up shock towers and the wheels, but I will have to ditch my techno 17mm hex if I want those. For now I plan on buying the body and body mount system and ditching the Losi cab forward body I have.
Wish the nose (front end) area was color matched to the body on the Traxxas....like the Arrma typhon grom. I also hope Arrma does a 1/8 Typhon Mega version that looks like the Typhon Grom. I like the wing and low slung look of the buggy and it also looks a bit utilitarian.
I love it, but I’ve been wanting to see a traxxas 1/8 nitro buggy for decades as big as traxxas is its kinda surprising they don’t get into competition racing
I HOPE they make a Nitro version for us 🙏 to guarantee success with a new Nitro these days, just make it the fastest Nitro you can buy straight out the box.
As soon as I saw them I knew I would want one to go with my Typhon 3s+6s, just one BIG issue. There is no way I'm gonna pay the same price as a the beast Typhon 6s and only get a 4s system and some upgrades. It would be smarter to buy the 2s and do the upgrades myself cheaper and it be faster than the vxl. They really are asking to much for the vxl. Not thrilled with the 2s price but if I decide to get one, the 2 s would be it as I have several spare 2050kv motor 150esc combos ready to liven up something I get next. Or donate the 3s system out of my Hoss. Which I think would be a great setup for it. But it is a little ridiculous for Traxxas to price it so close or on the dot to Arrmas 6s range. That's why I didn't buy a Fireteam for over $700 out the door when they came out even though I really liked it. But when they did the black Friday sale, uh yes please and it put my Xmaxx on the shelf. 🤣 So I believe that Traxxas needs to knock $100 off at least for a sale and maybe they would sale some. I believe everyone will probably do the same thing I do if the price doesn't drop and that's to create a beast out of the 2s if they buy one. That's my thought. 🤙 Thank you for the review. Always enjoy your introduction videos. Can't wait to see when you run it on the bike track. 👍

Traxxas did amazing job making a buggy but for the price of $350 i preferred arrma typhon 3s i hope they will realize that other buggy on the market has already 3s fir that price
I think the general consensus from all the comments on other youtubers channels as well as here is no one is happy with this release, mainly the name usage and price for a 2s rc let alone the price of the 4s. A lot of us were really expecting an actual jato update. Kind of sad. I am intrigued about the mini maxx even though that should also be 3s out of the box as well.
I like the 4s version but the price is high when you consider the price of the Corally Syncro 4, which is also a basher. It is cheaper than the 2 offerings from Kyosho and Losi for RTR 4s buggies but those are race platforms. It’s hard to consider this Jato 4x4 a race buggy having no adjustability or even included sway bars. Hopefully those are options parts.
Can we get a Rustler Mini please Traxxas Buggy I’m all for it I don’t really care what the name is. Traxxas, Arrma, Losi, Etc I don’t give a damn what they do I’m all for it. I love the hobby so bring on whatever 🎉😂😂 LifeLineRC
I think the vxl looks cool but for how much? For $300 I can get a typhon 3s that is awesome. And for $450 I can get a 6s arrma typhon. So pricing is important. When you offer a 2s version that is more than a 3s typhon its going to be a tough sale for most of us. If you offered the 3s vxl for$400 yeah it would sell but if it is $450 for that kind of money you can get the 6s typhon!

@@SilentSeventhTHIS is true. I had 2 MXL6s escs, and one day randomly when switching on my Erevo brushless edition, the esc wires smoked. Called up Traxxas, talked about what could be done, gave them my Name/address and payed $55 for a VXL6s esc replacement. Delivered in 2 days. Can’t get that from ANY other rc company.
Looks pretty cool, but I just don’t understand the point of a buggy basher. I’d rather have protection for the shock towers. The second one he shows makes more sense

@zellegoodwin9046 I have tons of both arrma and Traxxas and like them both equally but I just think the pricing on these in particular are about $75-$100 off on both 2 and 4s for what you get compared to similar options available from other companies.
How about the off set on the wheels is not industry standard, so you will not be able to use Proline, JConepts or any other major brand otherwise the car will be too narrow… correct me if I’m wrong but the VXL wheels look to be at least 1/2” offset.

Overpriced traxxas here should be the title of all traxxas vids. 329.99 for the 1/8 arrma.
I don't really care if traxxas called it a "sock". The vxl looks great, and it's something somewhat new.
JUNK SO ANOTHER SLASH 4X4.... LAMEE
ONLY 4S? LAMEEE JUST GET THE ARRMA TLR BUGGY WAY BETTER 6S
Epic? To me and well many this is an epic fail for traxxas
How about the off set on the wheels is not industry standard, so you will not be able to use Proline, JConepts or any other major brand otherwise the car will be too narrow… correct me if I’m wrong but the VXL wheels look to be at least 1/2” offset.
I believe thees drive very well and are almost impossible to break,but coral etc went so insane power that thees looks underpowered
I'm actually not a fan of this company.. BUT , this chassis has my attention.🧐
It looks awesome and extremely durable 👍great review 🤙
Arrma Typhon is a better value
@@TheRedComet1821 nope. one more s does not make up for the lower quality roller the 3s Typhon has.
Nah, noting Like a Kyosho Inferno MP9 e EVO 2, a Tekno EB48, Mugen Seiki Mbx8R or a Losi 8ight-X/E 2.0
Buggy looks nice but why in the world would they name something that looks nothing like its counterpart…
