@@thercgarage1443 dude, I'm so friggin torn! My neighbor has a Nitro Revo, Nitro Slash, and Nitro Mad Crusher and just picked up a Nitro T-Maxx. I have an X-Maxx and want a 2nd rc for when it's down for maintenance and I am so so so so SO tempted to pick up a new T-Maxx 3.3!! But after calling around to multiple hobby shops and parts not being available AND the truck isn't kept in stock because of the demand (or lack thereof) for Nitro... I'm scared dude. In the late 90's, early 2000's I was like 15 and would have KILLED for 600 bucks to buy a T-Maxx!!! Now I can afford one, but I'm scared about the maintenance and parts. Like, they only have quarts of Nitro and don't carry 1 gallons. Like, at all. Uh. I'd love to hear your advice!!
@@wwjoshdew in my experience with my other tmaxx which is from the late 90’s I was still able to get parts easily as recent as a year ago and there is a lot of support form traxxas for the tmaxx because it was their best selling nitro truck for years and it’s one of the best selling nitro trucks of all time and there is a lot of support from other companies for it such as proline and rpm so I would say just get the tmaxx cuz they are durable, easy to drive, and in my experience parts have always been available and I think traxxas will still support it for many more years
William O'Leary Big Tmaxx fan I have an original 2.5 & 3.3 Just bought a brand new Tmaxx 3.3 on 3/7/21 Be careful when breaking it in I followed the directions to a T & on the 4th tank the slipper clutch pads disintegrated & the engine rev’d like hell until I could get to it. I immediately called Traxxas from the park & the Tech said the same thing happened to him on his new Tmaxx and Revo so I didn’t do anything wrong. He sent me a slipper clutch rebuild kit, glow plug, & the blue wire because it melted I haven’t installed it yet, but will soon I am worried about any engine damage, but he said they’ll make good on if it was. Just picked up a brand new HPI Savage X 4.6 from HRP directly. $30 off coupon on their site, free shipping, and!!! no sales tax because it ships from there home office in Utah. All in it only cost me $469.99 Can’t wait to break that Legend it also. Oh and of course finish breaking the Legendary Tmaxx in as well Enjoy, we’ll check out your vids
Happen also to me on a Revo 3.3 during brake in the engine just go on max RMP 2 times lucky me i was next to the truck and stop it directly.. my brake in its not done complety but from what i see its runing good . :) alrdy destroyed 1 upper left arm :)
It's hilarious that they still do the zip tie like they did when I was a kid. Nothings changed, they keep upgrading the revo but on the tmaxx it's still just a new remote and everything else is 100% old school 😂
cool channel cool unboxing man I've been thinking about going back in time a little bit and picking up another brand new 3.3 I had several back in the day upgraded all aluminum custom painted bodies the works good job man thanks for putting the bug back in me to get the T-maxx, look for a possible unboxing on my channel as well
You may want to even call them and ask them what you may be able to do to prevent the same thing from happening And if they for some odd reason say they never heard of that happening there’s a recording of my Tech telling me it’s happened to two of his new vehicles (Tmaxx & Revo). But they probably won’t. Their customer service is great
Use the Adam Drake break in method for your nitro engine. Also try and get a Losi 3.4 carburetor and put it in the 3.3. The stock carburetor in the 3.3 is to small, it's the same that's in the 2.5 and with the 3.4 in there it runs better and easier to tune.
Congratulations bro, yip I also bought my first brand new rc this week, it's the hpi firestorm with the g3.0 motor,they are so much better when bought brand new!
It also happened to “GofastRc” dad’s tmaxx Obviously a recall should be done They should reinstall be slipper clutch and look to see if there is any engine damage which I think there was I won’t know until I get into it. The guy from Traxxas did say they’d make good on it if it was damaged
the 3.3s have ok power, just over a horsepower. do an sh, or force .18 carb, or os 11k carb. after break in replace the rod due to them being brittle and splitting.
So when you say the same thing happened to you do you mean the slipper clutch pads disintegrated? Because that’s what happened to me and because it was the 4th tank it was further away from me than 1-3 If that happen did Traxxas send you the parts for free? And if so after replacing the slipper clutch pads have you had any additional problems with the slipper clutch?
@davveist More torque, more speed, longer running times and less maintenance and requires alot less things to carry when going for a run... Used to spend alot of time and money on gas and glowplugs and adjusting things.... Now I just plug and play... The sound I can live with... A brutal electric motor sounds badass in its own right imo... and I leave X-maxx'es in the dust! :D
The traxxas brushless models so not come with batteries, so they can avoid fees and also because they have choices on which battery to use based on speed preference.
I’ve never had a revo so I could only speak for the Tmaxx and it’s a great basher they are very durable and they are a lot of fun and I have heard a lot of good things about the revo as well so which ever you go with I think you will be happy
I love t maxx 3.3 so so so much.
Congratulations very nice purchase looking forward to seeing you enjoy your new TMAXX 😊👍💯 NITRO BABY!!!!
The King T maxx.
Congrats! Im on a process of rebuilding my 15yrs old Tmaxx 3.3 I miss the nitro rc

Very nice, I do own a T-Maxx 3.3 and it's amazing. Enjoy it. BTW, a .15ci motor is the same as a 2.5cc. lol
It also happened to “GofastRc” dad’s tmaxx
Obviously a recall should be done
They should reinstall be slipper clutch and look to see if there is any engine damage which I think there was

Would you recommend the T maxx for a first nitro truck
Yes but the tmaxx classic
t maxx 3.3 is the god all rc trucks

So when you say the same thing happened to you do you mean the slipper clutch pads disintegrated? Because that’s what happened to me and because it was the 4th tank it was further away from me than 1-3
If that happen did Traxxas send you the parts for free? And if so after replacing the slipper clutch pads have you had any additional problems with the slipper clutch?
t maxx 3.3 the god.
The Tmaxx was made in 1999 and had many reversions since then.
t maxx 3.3 number one and rustler vxl number one and nitro rustler number one and 1/16 revo vxl number one and they are the gods and kings.
t maxx 3.3 is the god.
I had my t-maxx for more than a decade and recently did a DIY electric conversion on it... best thing I ever did to it!
@davveist More torque, more speed, longer running times and less maintenance and requires alot less things to carry when going for a run... Used to spend alot of time and money on gas and glowplugs and adjusting things.... Now I just plug and play... The sound I can live with... A brutal electric motor sounds badass in its own right imo... and I leave X-maxx'es in the dust! :D
t maxx 3.3 and nitro rustler be out ever.
you might have already done it but do not beef up your bumpers they are supposed to flex and break so something else does and they are cheap
Congrats on the truck man, but real curious on what camera your using?
Sony ZV-1
The traxxas brushless models so not come with batteries, so they can avoid fees and also because they have choices on which battery to use based on speed preference.
t maxx 3.3 number one nitro rustler number two and rustler vxl number three and 1/16 e revo vxl number four they all number one and they all the best.
