- Look and discussion about the Traxxas summit and why I think it is probably the most underrated and versatile RC truck on the market. It has been around for almost 10 years and is still one of the best. From rock crawling to trailing and light bashing this truck can do it all. Running on twin 2S batteries this truck brings for ass four-wheel-drive to speed capability to any terrain.

Just the Video i Wanted! Ive Been Looking to Buy a Summit, this Really was a Help! Great Info!! 👍👍😎
You won’t be disappointed I absolutely love mine check out my video on the zeee Lightbow batteries that’s what I’m running get it in there working great. Also will have a lot more summit videos coming soon
Everyone who gets a Summit loves it. It’ll probably be my next R/C; I have some fast ones but I have been looking into getting a crawler but I remembered this.
The Summit got me back into RC. I hadn’t had any RC cars since I was a kid in the 80’s when I used to build them. It was fun but I got older and moved on from it. 8 years ago I came across the promo video for the Summit and was blown away. I never thought I’d see an RC car or truck doing what the Summit did and right out of the box! I bought one with my next tax refund and am still using it today. It really can do a little of everything and do it really well. It’s a great truck and there really is nothing like it. If someone wanted just one RC for off-road fun, I’d recommend the Summit easily.
I’d like to see a Summit 2 eventually though. I think it’s time for a brushless version with upgraded gears, differentials and axles. If it weren’t so expensive, I’d upgrade mine but when all the upgrades are in, it’s the price of a whole new truck. As it is though, the Summit is a landmark in RC history.
Glad you’re loving yours I think these are great and yeah a new updated version would be really cool
I bought one of the last ever Traxxas Summits ever made. I even beefed it up with E-REVO 2.0 pushrods and A-arms. Now it’s built tougher than an average Summit!❤ I also installed Arrma tether body clip retainers to prevent losing the body clips AND make it much easier to remove the body.
Beastly & Best all around for sure.
I just got 1 new last Friday, and I have been waiting to get this for 11 years and finally 😂🎉
Thanks for a current video on the Summit. Great video and way to hit the important parts of the truck!! I've been looking and finally ordered one yesterday. After watching your video I know I made the right choice. Hope to see your upgrades in a future video. Keep up the good videos!!!
Walt Gaskins Congratulations you’ll love it. The only thing I’ve really done to mine is add the accessory replacement light bar on the roof that actually has lights in it. And I have flipped my differential operation around so that the back locks first and then the front more like a true one to one scale vehicle
Thank you I just bought my Summit 1 month ago , worth it for climbing
Had a 6s brushless Summit for years still use it often. Had to upgrade the rear diff, steering and high/low servo and the drive shafts. Otherwise a really tough bit of kit. Only ever brocken one arm! This things had so much stick I've worn through the exo-frame bit it's still rockin.
Don’t live close to any hills but I love this crawler definitely getting one tomorrow
They are an awesome truck and you can always find somewhere to run these go out and find a big gravel pile but they’re also fun to just bash around
This is perfect for what I’m looking for, something that’s good at everything but not amazing at one thing. Been looking at the x Maxx for a while and completely forgot about the summit. I’ve always loved the look of the summit so this is pretty much a no brained for me! Thanks for the vid man!
I own both of those trucks and they are both amazing for their own reasons but the summit is one of those just all-around good trucks I think it’s only drawback it’s not that easy to work on but with a little practice and patience it honestly isn’t that bad. I actually just bought a used Summit and rebuilt it I’ll have a video up soon that makes three of them it is my absolute favorite RC
For sure on my To Buy List. Just got the TRx-4 Traxx. Cant wait to get the summitt and head to the Mountains and Crawl around.
Oh you will love it I have seriously thought about buying one of the tracks just haven’t pulled the trigger on it yet
@@LargeeeScaleLife I'm New to the Hobby about 3 months in Now and So Fun and Addicting. I have some Street RC cars but the Rock Crawling just looks to be the Most entertaining and fun. I'm just thankful for people like you posting information and advice, so I can get some training on this stuff.
Bobby Simpson no problem man that’s really all I’ve done just do a lot of research and a lot of it is best guess I love my TRX defender I’ve actually quit running it a lot now it’s sort of turned into my super scale project have a bunch of parts waiting around for a new body at some point I’ll pick up just a trail beater rig but the summit is great for that as well it’s not really a monster truck not really a Rockcrawler but it’s kind of one of those do everything deals absolutely love those things
I love my summit. I got it several years ago after being away from the hobby for 25+ years (I had a Tamiya Lunchbox as a kid). There’s not much left of the original vehicle at this point, as it’s now heavily modified for performance. I just bought my kids a Stampede 2wd as their 1st hobby grade RC, and I’ve already been bitten by the modification bug on that one too.
JP Morand The stampede is a great first time truck for the kids
I Love My Traxxas Summit! It's a First Gen Summit and still going STRONG! It truly is Versatile. Definitely came alive when I put in the 2s Lipos. I put on Proline Trenchers and the roof lights. Love It!
Same here bud. I bought my first gen solid blue Summit 9 years ago and it's still running strong. I also went lipo, roof lights and have Trencher X tires on it. Also added some upgraded aluminum pushrods and center driveshaft. Definitely put some new life in the old boy. Great truck. Best RC I've ever owned. 👍🏻
@Matthew Hayslett Yes it has lights on the front bumper and fake ones on the roof of the body. The roof lights is what I replaced and adds more light up front. LEM did sell the axles for them. I don't know if they are still around.
@Matthew Hayslett The real head and tail lights are stock but not the light bar. That's still just a plastic decoration. It's only $10 though and can be swapped out and attached easily.
@@frankmontoya341, Hey frank.. yep LEM is still going strong, i just purchased yesterday a LEM Ultimate Diff Combo which includes both Diff upgrades & LEM Dogbone Carrier for tranny slop on Summit, waiting on LEM V4 Axles to come back in stock for future upgrades. Mostly everone has good things to say about them with there Machining accuracy & quality parts.
Please post more videos like this on TH-cam I haven't seen many of the new summits around and I'd love to see more
No problem I’ll probably have another one up tonight
Good job extolling the virtues of the Summit!
I would advice others to consider it because it has been around awhile - that means there are much more options for it 🤩
Les DMess Oh definitely there is a very good aftermarket support for this truck I honestly wish a few more companies made wheels and tires for them especially bead locks but hey there’s a decent amount of stuff out there for them
@@LargeeeScaleLife Ha ha! Of course that even as much aftermarket support is available, we want more. With the rise of 3D printing, we may just get to make our own. Truly we are in the golden age of RCs!
RC videos are most often new vehicle reviews and maintenance information later on. We all know the Summit is the least "money pit" RC you can buy. So people aren't posting content because there isn't really anything new to add other than repeating how amazing the thing is. I love mine and it's like walking the dog. Your trail buddy. It's also in its own class. You either have a Summit, or you don't. If you hate the work bench but love rc, buy a Summit. After 4 years with mine, I've only replaced the two steering servos with one really good one and put in a new motor. If you could only have one rc car, I would choose the Summit. Long run time, very versatile. Large scale without large scale cost. Great right out of the box. Lol this guy is right about the videos. Very little new content.
I've had the orange and black for about a year now.
Great all around truck,
Only Thing I broke so far was 1 front axle.
I upgraded the rear axles to the metal MIP just because I run harder tires the proline badlands.
Also a great mod is the LEM aluminium dog carrier takes all the slop out tranny.
I didn’t break an axle but I did break the stove axle where it goes into the hub carrier but no big deal there other than that it’s been pretty solid and yeah I’ve really been thinking about doing that transmission upgrade
The Summit is definitely a king.
Nice videooo, i like it :)
NICE. MY BUDDY JUST PICKED ONE UP HE SAYS SAME THING. IT DOES IT ALL. AND ALOTTA FUN. I HAVE A TRX4 DEFENDER BUT BEEN LOOKIN AT THE SUMMIT FOR AWHILE WONDERING IF THEY ARE GOOD. THANKS 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
John Miller you really can’t go wrong with one of these I absolutely love my defender for its scale realism and everything but the summit is just so much fun on so many levels and when it gets super rocky and rough you really can’t stop this thing definitely worth adding to the fleet And since it has basically the same transmission and differential set up you’ll be very familiar with it out of the box
I love the summit I also have two of them I have the green one and I have the orange one both of them are completely stock and they've never let me down they are probably the most durable truck I've ever owned the next truck I'm thinking of getting is the xmaxx
Good rc
Memories of the clodbuster being top dog for years.
Thanks for the up yo date video! I want one but every video is like 10 years old
No problem yeah that’s the problem these things are still popular but they’re not the coolest thing in the world or the latest and greatest so people don’t do a lot of content on them. I own three of these trucks now and I absolutely love them I’ll have a new video up soon on the used one I just bought and I’m rebuilding thanks for checking it out
getting mine soon
Awesome you will definitely love it
I agree. I bought a summit recently and I love it. The locking diffs, great suspension, stock lights, 2 spd trans, make it my favorite rc.
Just bought the orange Summit and it is one of the best.
Sweet i painted my wheels black looks good with the orange rings
Good video! You’re spot on about how the current RC social media culture is to only post the latest rage, but the increasing popularity of the hobby has sort of been the root cause, due to more manufacturers jumping into the market. When I first got into scale crawling, 6 years back, the Axial SCX10 was pretty much the go-to scale/trail truck, which made it easier for a lot of people to relate to one another. Now, however, that market is saturated with multiple platforms, which has divided people into smaller tribes, but also spoils the overall community into craving more new releases. I’ve been changing my attitude to not jump at every new release, but focus on what really appeals to my driving interests. For many years I’ve thought about a Summit, but lacked an open area to run it, until recently, having moved out of the urban area and into the country. I had a Kraton 6S for a short time, but got rid of it. I didn’t like its singular purpose. The Summit’s versatility has a greater appeal for me. There are some Dept Natl Resources lands nearby, with large open spaces, but too rocky for a speed truggy. Summit would be perfect!
That’s the thing that appeals to me about the summit I have some areas to run bigger speed RC cars but there’s some places around here where I’m at there are a lot of trail hiking places with some nice rock crawling areas mixed into it along the way and get to some of these rocky areas Mohs scale crawlers would have trouble getting there the summit will just go through anything and if you want to take it out and bash around you can do that
Large Scale Life Kind of funny...many of the mountain trails I’ve hiked have “goat trail” sections that are too narrow for a Summit. At the same time, I would occasionally have to pick up my scale truck and carry it. I wouldn’t want to take the Summit up one of those, anyway, because it would be too heavy to have to carry several miles down, if it broke. Thanks for the sub! I see that you’re working on a backyard course. I’ll have to get an update video on mine, once I make some more progress. Family life keeps it slow going. ✌🏼
My next rig!
Curtis oh these things are absolutely awesome I am running Man on zeee 6200 mA 2s Battery packs with adapters to fit the ESC plugs and they give me great run time especially on the trail and they are super cheap and very reliable and durable
I love my summit it’s goes every train
I'm planning on buying one, it looks very fun, I have a Stampede 4x4 vxl, and a Slash 4x4 vxl and I am assuming by looking at it, the Summit is bigger than the Stampede. All I've seen are pictures of it and videos.
@@rome79735 you should buy one because it is a beast
@@traxxasgaragerceveryday2776 👍👍👍
Been wanting one since they came out and I finally pulled the trigger! Got 4 of the zee lipos you are running coming too. Do the new summits come with the traxxas ID connector? Where did you get your adapter plugs to the deans? Are the ID connectors compatible with the old Traxxas connectors? Dont want to void the warranty by soldering on new plugs....thanks bud!
Ben Snipes just pick them up off Amazon if you have a local hobby shop you might be able to get them they’re mine still has the Traxxas plugs on the ESC as soon as the warranty period is over those are going away I will convert them to XT 60 and then convert my batteries to XT 60 as well.
Ben Snipes By the way those batteries get a little better after you run them a couple of cycles I noticed after two or three charge cycles they seem to give me a little better time
@@LargeeeScaleLife Thanks man! So excited for my Summit!
I've had a Summit for probably 5 years (give or take) and left it stock for a long time. I just started modifying it. I installed a brushless Castle Mamba Monster 2 in it, but not for speed, for durability. Brushless motors last far longer than brushed motors do, obviously. I've got a set of Dick Cepek wheels on it with 40 series RC4WD Rock Crusher tires. I also have eliminated the twin servo setup as I've got to boost the BEC voltage. The servos aren't stock and always caused brown outs if I turned the wheels rear quick. The twin servos draw enough amps to shut my Castle ESC off and reboot. I have a castle programming card, but it doesn't turn on and think the plug is damaged. Anywho, other than the brushless, tires and wheels, and the servo, mine is still mostly stock. I've used it for Creek runs, mud bogs, dirty trail rides, run in rainy wet conditions. All that and I can honestly say, after a good cleaning, still looks like new. For the conditions I've used it in and the time I've had it, I am very impressed with it when cleaned up. Over the years, it's needed very few repairs, one diff repair and that is literally the only repair I've ever done to it. Still running the old TQ transmitter not the TQI. The old TQ transmitter with the flip up antenna. Lol. Reliable, has been.
That’s awesome I just bought a used one I’ll have a video up soon did a rebuild on it I actually put some junk spectrum servos I had in it just laying around it even causes the lights to flash honestly traxxas should’ve done better with the ESC for its BEC output but hey it’s all good. I’m actually really curious in that brushless set up what kind of pinion are you running? Do you still run it in both low and high gear? Definitely like the durability and longevity factor I don’t wanna speed demon or a basher but would like it for the reasons you stated and I have looked at those Wheels they look pretty awesome I would actually like to try said which tires did you go with? I would really like to have a set of their spider wheels but man those things are a pretty penny
By the way you should put up a video about your summit I’d really be interested in checking out what it looks like and how your install went
@@LargeeeScaleLife The pinion is a 13 tooth. I only use low gear until I change all the micro servos. Only one for one of the lockers currently function. The tires are sold on RC4WD and are called Rock Crushers. They can only be used with 40 series wheels. The difference is the surface where the tires meets up with the wheel is at an angle rather than squared like your typical wheel is. The tires are very similar, if not the same, as what is found on the axial yeti. The tires measure 8 inches tall via tape measure but are listed as 8.26. A bracket specially designed to work with the Mamba Monster 2 ESC and the E-Revo/Summit is found on Traxxas' web site. I can get the part number if you needed it.
@@SebastianLong Yeah the part number would be awesome I’ll look for it but can’t seem to find it also when you run that motor does it bolt up to the factory mount?
@@LargeeeScaleLife yes it does, but you will need smaller screws to fit the holes. The original brushed motor uses thicker screws. I'll find that part number for you.
Ive been wanting one sice i was like 5 or 6 im almost 15 right now
I bet id be insane on brushless
Diffs like to explode on insane brushless mode. You'd need to run it on 4s or shim the diff and be careful on 6s. 4s would still be much better and capable of 40mph or even more (definitely more powerful than the trx3.3 that pushes the Revo to 45mph). Even on my erevo 2.0 I've blown up a diff on 6s and they are by far the largest and strongest in the industry, and I've destroyed a diff on my revo 2.5r in 2006. The older style revo bulkheads are far more difficult to work on. The newer ones split in a way that you can leave the top of the bulkhead attached to the chassis with suspension and just drop the bottom skids and 6 screws keep the bulkheads together, plus the screws holding the tie rods and blue aluminum piece.
12:12 I noticed you have the black PTFE shocks and gold TiN shafts and was thinking, did he upgrade his shocks before using it? Went to traxxas' website and it says they're standard... That's pretty nice. I had to buy the TiN shafts for my erevo 2.0 and still don't have the black PTFE shock bodies. I only did mine because I was already getting into the shocks to change the pistons to the VDK ones along with much thicker oil.
.
I also threw the jato dust boots and shaft seal cap on mine after my first rebuild since they got so gritty.
I deafly wouldn’t mind putting some boots or something on this one so that they don’t get nasty
@@LargeeeScaleLife www.rcsuperstore.com/traxxas-shock-dust-boots-for-jato-xo-1/
.
That's what I run. They're finicky to install because the lower spring mount goes over the bottom of the boot, maybe the Jato has a different version, but they keep my shocks and oil clean. The GTR shocks are super impressive with how they don't leak and the extreme amount of tuning they can under go.
The Traxxas summit came out in 2009
Hey man! What batteries and charger would you recommend for the summit? Thanks!
Zeee 6200 mA Our great batteries for them you can get them off Amazon for about 50 bucks I said I think I have four sets per truck and they’re doing great they come with Dean’s plugs so you’ll have to get a Traxxas to Dean’s adapter but no big deal there. For chargers I would recommend the venom pro duo you might have to buy a few extra charge leads for it but that’s not a big deal or the hobby meet D6 duo are on the venom and love it just let me know if you have any other questions
Chrissy D Oh by the way look at back at my channel I actually have a review on those batteries
Large Scale Life alright thanks a lot I’ll check those out, because the Traxxas batteries are really expensive compared to most other batteries
Chrissy D yeah the factory batteries they’re good but they are overpriced they’re great if you have kids because you can use they’re really simple charger and there’s really no way to make a mistake but I definitely prefer aftermarket also check out the company HRB they actually make some really good batteries you can find those on Amazon as well but you’re definitely gonna want at least 5200 preferably 6200 mA those will fit in that truck just fine
What is the run time for one been thinking but getting one for a few years
So I run mine on 6200 mA battery’s on a set of these in low gear trailing I can get about 2 1/2 miles to 3 miles on a set of batteries before they hit low voltage. Now if you run it on high range like bashing style you’ll probably get about 35 to 45 minutes on a set of batteries just depends on how hard you’re running it runtime is honestly pretty darn good I did a 6 mile trail hike on two sets
How often does the motor go out?
americanguy87 I have never had a problem with one but however it is a very large very High torque motor the good thing is a replacement motor is pretty cheap. There are also a lot of people that replace these motors with Dewalt 880 motors out of a drill and have good results.
Please save me from making a mistake.. I wanted the trx4 defender and I'd be getting one for Christmas, but I've read and heard whispered that as a speed basher I'd be happier with a Summit?? HELP ME!😂
-Ok I'm nearly convinced that the summit is a better choice for my first open wheel and my first Traxxas, will the defender body fit on this truck with custom mounts?
So if you’re looking for a Rockcrawler/trail truck that has a lot of realistic scale looks then the defender is a great way to go our own one and I absolutely love it but it is definitely not a basher if you run it in high gear really fast all the time you’re going to have issues. That being said the summit is an amazing truck if you want one of those do it all trucks. It can crawl it’s not a super scale crawler but it can crawl it’s a great trail truck and a fun light bashing truck. As long as you don’t do what a lot of people do get a summit throw a huge brushless motor in it and then expected to be a worthy trail truck still and you understand its limitations as a basher then it’s a great choice. As far as the body fitting probably not the defender has weird body mounts with the inner fenders and all that but you could possibly find a Land Rover body to fit I honestly love the summit body I think it’s really really cool and I’ve done a few custom paint jobs on them I have one that is color changing one that is stock and one that’s done in a resident evil Themep
If you need anything or you’ve got any questions let me know and I’ll be happy to try and answer them for you.
Make a great hauler 💪🏾
Does the summit have the modern battery connecters
The newest versions have the newer Traxxas connectors. I switch all my connectors out to EC5. I’m assuming that’s what you’re asking if they have the newest TRX plug
@@LargeeeScaleLife thanks was just wondering as the summit is an old model
@@averagerallyenjoyer9927 The summit has been around for over a decade however it has went through some changes with the times the original did not have locking differential‘s and had an older style radio and ran off of nimh batteries. The newer version has the locking differential‘s along with the two speed transmission and updated radio and plug
@@LargeeeScaleLife are there any other changes i should know about
@@averagerallyenjoyer9927 not that I’m really aware of. They have always had lights they have always come with the titan 775 motor. I’ve been keeping my eye out for an older one that I might be able to pick up for a good price but the only ones I found have been beat to death or butchered.
👍😜🇩🇪
This is a serious ass crawler 😅😅 just imagine how tiny the locking device is inside of the diff case lol
Well there's nothing to compare it with after all. I love mine, though I will start modding it as soon as I get home from the family Xmas. But it obviously isn't "scale", and it isn't exactly any scale at all. The body is kind of 1/10th, but the wheelbase and track width of the beast is kind of 1/8th. It's like a 1/10th monster truck, but kind of isn't.
Let's face it, the only thing it definitely isn't is MINI !!!!!!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
How is it compared to the trx4
That’s kind of hard to compare the summit will do a lot more versatile things than the crawler will. But it’s more like a monster truck the TRX is an absolutely amazing crawler if you’re looking for a pure rock crawler or a more scale trail truck. If you were just wanting to go on some light trail runs or just do rock crawling the TRX might be the way to go. The nice thing about the summit is you can bash it around a little you could do some more rugged trail runs and stuff like that it’s a jack of all trades but a master of none.
How's the battery life
So depends how you run it if you’re running it in low gear calling and trailing you can get probably 2 to 3 miles out of a set of batteries if you’re running it in high gear and bashing with it you’ll probably get 20 or 25 minutes
I got a good assortment of rc cars/brands but my 2 summits i like the best
It’s definitely at the top of my list as well
@@LargeeeScaleLife Servos just packed in on one of mine,, looking at what servo to replace them with
whiteyguitar666 Which servo went out one of the micro servos or one of the steering service
@@LargeeeScaleLife Oh sorry steering yeah
whiteyguitar666 this is a link to the ones I’m getting ready to put in my truck just as a little bit of an upgrade they’re stronger than the stock ones they’re relatively inexpensive for a set and they’re waterproof I’ve run these in different crawlers over the years and I’ve had very good luck out of them don’t know if I’ll use the servo horn‘s they come with may just go back with the stock ones but we’ll see.

Dewalt 18vlt or 14vlt best way to go
I was really thinking about doing the 18 V if I ever need one. But I’ve also kicked around the idea of doing a small censored brushless system does seem crazy power still something good for trailing
Compared to a sport how does it crawl?
Well it will go places a standard crawler won’t even think about but it’s larger has much bigger tires more power. However it is water longer and taller so if it’s tight and narrow obviously the sport will go places it won’t honestly the summit is a lot more like a monster truck It’s great for trailing but I would definitely not call it a rock crawler Unless you want to drive over big boulders
@@LargeeeScaleLife
Very informative, thank you!
I have a Summit and it is a good truck but I am not really a slow crawler guy I am more like a erevo guy and I was trying to sell my summit so I can save many for a erevo but no one wanted to buy it.
I actually went and looked at a used summit yesterday was thinking about picking up for a project but it was just way to beat the guy actually had camouflage painted the entire thing even the AARs and chassis
I was really young when I got it so I didn’t know a lot about the speed of rc cars until I got a Vxl slash so at the time I didn’t care if it was slow but now I have some faster cars and it is nothing. Also I have no where to really crawl it and use its full potential.
Razr Cageogic oh I totally get that I’ve got a lot of fast vehicles luckily I have some trails and stuff in the mountains here I can use the summit on
Hold On HOLD THE FUCK ON. FIRST AND FORMOST ITS 1/8 SCALE DUDE. So you want to compare. It doesn't even matter. The tires and wheel base is so much wider it doesn't even compare to scale Rc's Don't get me wrong it's Absoulutely amazing and tottaly agree with it's a king. Now days people love to be realistic. That's it. Nothing more. Alot of us 4×4 for real. The real deal. We are out there doing the actual thing. How can you even compare the two. The summit is definitely so, so much wider. I also love the Land cruiser that has great stuff to it. Locking all differentials etc. You can't compare the two. One realistic one not. You want to pick. Chose one all trail all trail. You're summit, unrealistic and fast slow and badass cool. It's what you want. I love the summit but it's all what you want so why trash any. Traxxas rocks either way. Take you're pick, their the best out there for what you actually want. I choose real life trail trucks in RC. Yours the summit. I also have a Slash with the Vilenieum system only because, I love short course racing. It's what you love period.
I’m simply pointing out that tracks is classifies it as a 1/10 scale as it has a 1/10 scale body but it’s truly a 1/8 scale. And as far as choosing I love them both for different reasons I absolutely love my scale crawlers I like real rock crawling as well. Not exactly sure where I touched a nerve here
Way more capable than any of the scale crawlers, but it lacks the realism. Traxxas should have went the other way with this. Made it a sensored brushless 6s truck that can crawl and bash. Instead they loaded it up with cheap brushed motors and asked people to spend brushless erevo money on it.
At some point I’m sure I’ll go that route do a censored set up on it but I’ll probably still only run it on 4s Just so I don’t destroy it
@@LargeeeScaleLife 4s is still far more powerful than stock nitro trucks were and crush what the summit came with. It's too bad, cause Traxxas could have really made a more premium erevo.
.
Would be cool if they could make a diff with the t-lock actuator but instead of a dog-clutch it adjusts a slipper clutch so you can have performance e-diffs and adjust, or have a computer, the strength of the lock up on the fly.
i cant find nothing to match it the locking diffs and two speed in a mt just dont exist
It’s pretty much the only thing of its kind it’s all the Best of a monster truck with a Pedegree of a rock crawler
Well if it can’t go over 70mph ,like it’s counter part the erevo.2.0, then it’s not an all around fun Rc lmao aaaannnnd is still uses clips lol. Use Velcro bro
Called a rocker bro lol
It's crap. It can't crawl, it can't go fast, it can't bash.......but it has personality! I love mine.
(Take off the 'beadlock' rings!!! It f*cks up your tires.)
you speak too much
Your profile picture is too boring.
