JMO but I'm thinking that you only say that because you are not familiar with the Team RedCat TR-MT8E BE6S or even better is the new upgraded Team Magic E6 III V-Gen.
Nice review mate! Have run/got most of these and would add that the Notorious/Kraton are way more durable than the E-Revo. Currently in the UK a Notorious is nearly £200 cheaper than a Maxx too! No contest! Kraton is super stable too (and £200 cheaper than an E-Revo) and when geared up can easily outperform E-revo off road. E-revo wheelies too much, balloons too much, traction rolls too much and breaks suspension components endlessly. Shame, as I do like their design and chassis strength. My lad's Notorious is a beast. He runs it on Traxxas TQi radio gear which is much better than the Arrma stuff and allows you some limited tuning on the ap. 53mph stock.
Looking to buy one for my son for Christmas, I'm running out of time.... what would you buy. New to the hobby, he's flown drones and loves it so I figure let's try one of these, what do you prefer
great vid as always broseph!! Im going to get an rc soon not sure I wanted the kraton 8s but then i notice parts are way cheaper all around for traxxas! but not sure might even consider the smaller maxx and now I see the E revo thats cool which one would you pick just for bashing and wanting to go fast and handle well also please let me know i really like the xmaxx what would u think will be all around best ? thanks for all the great content always!
Hold fire on a Kraton 8S! I was going to get one BUT @Kevin Talbot persuaded me to get the 8S Xmaxx instead. Reason was the spare parts, new 8s Kraton chassis $100, xmaxx chassis? $26! First three videos I watched of the 8S kraton every single person bent the chassis, hence the 8s xmaxx putchase. Anyhow to answer your question, the notorious/outcast is the best 'basher' to my mind. For go fast handling it's down to the erevo or the Kraton, spares availability sways me to the erevo, and at full power on the optional pinion? Oh mama! Either is good though. No fanboy stuff here! I just love good RC cars, but don't buy that Kraton 8s! Wait until they do a V2 or even a V3...They issued an upgrade kit to owners, let's put it this way would you buy a brand new auto with a major recall issued...
@@DriftomaniacsRC Just chipping in there is the Kraton 8S v2 out now with better chassis Earl Moorehead did a comparison th-cam.com/video/fwcfmCQV4PQ/w-d-xo.html
Can’t complain about this list. I’d add the Traxxas Summit as an honorable mention. What it lacks in speed, it makes up for in versatility and durability. It’s also $499 right now. I still have my original Summit I bought 8 years ago and it’s still running strong with no major breaks. Nothing like it out there. 👍🏻
Driftomaniacs I’d like to see that. I’ll take durability over speed any day. There’s nothing fun about having to constantly buy new parts for a car or truck that breaks from being used the way it was designed. That’s why the Summit is my favorite RC. Because I haven’t abused it, I haven’t spent much time and money on parts and repairs and it’s still running as good as the day I bought it.
There's a lot of damn good RCs in the $500 to $600 range no matter what category you are looking at. That being said, there is a lot at $399 as well. There is some what would be around 600 from a big name company for $300 because of the size and speed but don't hold up well and require months of downtime waiting on parts.
Lane I'd like to do a similar video for other cars that are lower priced given the economy and the pressure we're all under (Saying that it's nice to still have something to dream about). I will think on the categories. Good thoughts you have on the parts though
I see all these comments of thats not a monster truck its a truggy. Take it with a grain of salt. traxxas and arrma classify them as so. Kind of like a chevy hhr is classified as an suv. Most of us mechanics know its not a real suv its a chevy cobalt with a different body and a few different things therefore i wouldn't have one if i wanted a real suv but some people do. either way good video
Do you think Arrma will ever release a 6s or 8s monster truck in the style of the granite or big rock? I like the styling of the more stood up trucks rather than the low slung style. Great video as well Rich keep up the good work and stay safe!
I am thinking that coming out of covid we might see them release an 8S granite! Now that would set the world alight and take on the 8s xmaxx head on. That would tick a lot of boxes for a lot of people. The 8s Kraton.....hang on....back with you in a minute....no really.....I will be! Dang sorry I was outside catching the ball Arrma, Greg Sopa, and Horizon Hobby with the 8s Kraton! Missed catching the ball again! I said this when I first saw it, I commented likewise. Who wants a car that in the first three youtube videos bends the chassis? Plastic bends (back) Loved the handling of the 3s big rock better than the granite as at speed that longer wheelbase helps a lot. I've built some monsters awaiting the all clear! other people run stuff but me running at 90 plus aint essential! Love Arrma but they need to employ some Traxxas design guys! (And a few marketing and customer service people as best car in the world AINT worth buying if it takes 90 mins to speak to someone vs 30 secs for the competition) - I'll call it like what it is.#STAYSAFE
@@DriftomaniacsRC yeah that's the main thing that I can't help but think the x maxx is a much better option. I'm saving up for a one after getting back into the hobby last year, I gotta traxxas bigfoot and a kyosho inferno neo 2.0. Now I want something bigger.
@@krelakuma lol no. The chassis is solid now. They've updated it. Also a better servo as well as 20m centre diff oil from factory. Mod 1 gearing and bullet proof diff gears. The xmaxx is a waste. Diff gears are not great. It has spur gear problems. Esc fail, plastic servo gears. V2 kraton 8s is better.
NEED HELP ASAP....looking for a rc truck for my son who loves flying drones, I want something nice, I'm new to the hobby but will be enjoying it myself, UNDER $1000 WHAT YOU RECOMMEND...
So, this comment probably falls under the "Too long, didn't read" category, but here we go lol My experience with Traxxas and Arrma are as follows Traxxas Rustler 2WD VXL and Rustler 4x4 VXL Arrma Typhon 3s and Granite 3s Arrma in my limited experience seems to be a bit more durable than Traxxas, at least in the $300-$400 price point. That being said, my Traxxas vehicles tend to handle better than the Arrma vehicles in stock form. Both of my Arrma vehicles have a bit of slop in the steering. Also, the Arrma radios are not as good on these as the Traxxas radios. Perhaps the more expensive Arrma vehicles come with better radios? I think both are great brands, but I think I'm leaning more towards Traxxas as I tend to keep my vehicles stock. I think one who wants to mod vehicles would likely be better off with Arrma as I can really see their potential.
good points, particularly the radio, I still run the stock radio on my 100mph 4tec! The arrma radios on the high end cars are the same as those on the low end ones
In North America, the price you see advertised does not include State/Province and Federal tax's. In Europe, the VAT is shown as included. (Not to mention the value of your currency at any given time.)
I can think about shooting that one, the buggy market is a bit trickier as all the really, really good stuff is kits, and adding your own motor and electrics is where the money comes in, but I am thinking about buggies
I would rather have the maxx cause it takes better beatings, also because 6s is gonna break more although I would love an arrma and I wouldn’t really call the Kraton a monster truck.
Just reading this 3 years late. The Maxx, while plastic is hands down the most durable vechile on the market. People seem to think metal is higher quality and more durable and that is most definitely not the case when speaking about the Maxx. It is deceiving because this is not made of average plastic and this is why it is priced the way it is. Arms, shocks etc are gonna break on the Kraton much faster than the Maxx. It is pretty much a Doomsday RC vechile that has been overbuilt in every way.
Great video! Amain is awesome but you should also check out tower hobbies they offer coupons that allow you to save a lot on pretty much any purchase . I’m not really into traxxas but now I want a erevo
alas tower hobbies is owned by horizon hobbies who it takes an average of 90 minutes to speak to a person (traxxas under 90 seconds!) so on that basis we can't recommend tower hobbies.
Traxxas and arrma do not allow the use of Amain coupon codes unfortunately. So the cost of the car or traxxas/arrma parts are not included in the "spend $100 to save $5 coupons. My last 3 RC vehicles from amain were like this. Sorry to disappoint.
Is this a strictly Monster Truck review or not? You mentioned that you wouldn't include truggies yet the last 3 are not Monster Trucks , the are Monster Truggies. Basically, the only thing that is Monster on them are the bigger wheels on a truggy platform. So that said, you claimed Monster TRUCK specifically yet you only listed 2 true monster trucks, the first 2. Monster Truggy should be given it's own class/top 5 list as speed is not a fair competition between the two vehicle characteristics. Especially when you add in handling at speed as you have, as well as the ability to keep the front end down while getting upto speed. It's just not a fair comparison when discussing speed in particular between these different styles of RC's. If you decide to do a Monster Truggy type speed comparison, don't forget the Team Corally Kronos. The Kronos has rather large differential pinion gears, thus is faster than expected out of box. Also don't forget the JLB Cheetah, it might be cheap and not the best investment however they are known for being very fast. Lastly, something that is closer to a monster truck than the Arrma's or the Revo, is more durable and a better value out of the box, would be the Team RedCat TR-MT8E BE6S. I'm not saying that it is a Monster Truck, it is a Truggy, however it's chassis design is closer to that of a MT than that that of the E-Revo or the Arrma's you mention. There is one caveat, being the stock pinion for the BE6S comes way undergeared at only 11 teeth. It really comes alive with a not provided 16 tooth pinion. For Monster Trucks, #5 or #1 as you order them should be the Raminator! If it is slow but the cool factor is off the chart. Maybe honorable mention. Lol
Sorry to cut you off right there BUT if you look at the manufacturers website on each of these cars they specifically state them as Monster Trucks! You and I may consider some of them truggies BUT they are very specifically sold as Monster Trucks! The opposite side to this, is guess what if I did one on Truggies? Someone would say 'the manufacturer sells it as a monster truck' so you'll appreciate I can't win! So before jumping the gun again go to the website of everyone of these cars and you'll see everyone is listed as a Monster Truck - that's what I did before putting this list together.
@@DriftomaniacsRC I understand the position you unfortunately are in. For clarification, I am not classifying them as Truggies, I am say that they are Monster Truggies. I could be wrong but my understanding is that Arrma technically lists the Kraton as a Speed Monster Truck and the Outcast as a Stunt Truck.

PLEASE buy a microphone! I like your videos but it sounds like you recorded it underwater! Also - whereabouts in England is your accent from - I just can’t place it!
OVER $300 DOLLARS SPENT ON FOUR MIC'S IN PAST YEAR! Not ONE dollar more going to be spent on so called 'Good' mics! What are you listening to it on? Are you aware YT throttles bandwidth depending on your bandwidth?
I didn’t mean to offend you. Maybe I’m the only one who finds the sound so muffled on your videos but I don’t have the same issue with other channels like amain or kev Talbot etc so assume it’s something about your mixing/mic. Most of the time I’m listing hardwired to gigabit fiber (935mb down and up, according to google speedtest) so it’s not a bandwidth issue. And it doesn’t seem to matter whether I’m listening on my iPhone 11 Pro Max with or without AirPods or from my hardwired PC (Bose speakers or VModa headphones depending on whether I’m watching late at night). I definitely didn’t realize you were from NJ - I could have sworn I was hearing a regional English accent in your voice but I stand corrected!
Hello Gov, Are the big guys, like Tower & Horizon, A Main etc, OUT of stock for Arrma RC's? I was looking for a Senton BLX, nowhere to be found, out of stock. Same with the Outkast, Notorious, matter of fact almost all the main cars are out of stock. With this damn virus crap, they're probably going to push back alot of the orders, since alot of people haven't been at work. Any news about that Gov??👍💯
Govenor here, I hear you. I think the problem is to do with the fact that whilst Traxxas are US company and Arrma UK (Although US owned by Horizon I think) they both get most of the cars and parts made in the far east and this virus has caused a massive hold up in their supply chain of 2 or more likely 3 months, this is why a lot of cars are in short supply as are spares. I am in touch with people in China and life is returning to normal in a lot of places BUT then they got hit with this first in Late November, hate to point out that's coming up on 6 months back, so I'm thinking it'll improve in 1-2 months but not be good for another 3. Hope that makes sense. #STAYSAFE
@@DriftomaniacsRC Thanks for that Gov, what you deduced makes perfect sense, probably 3 good months till the big guys and little guys have stock on the Arrmas, I need to order a Senton, any leads you might have would be muchly appreciated good sir! Love your rigs man, you've gotta nice selection, thats for sure!! 👍💯💫
so is horizon hobby it's the manufacturers across the board that's the issue, pretty much all of them get parts for there cars or their entire cars built in China, and there lies the issue not the big distributors, imagine the problems you're going to have when your LHS opens up with no stock...
I go by what the makers say, and so if arrma say it's a truggy and traxxas say the erevo is a monster truck I have to roll with it. Although I DO KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN. Both tell porkie pies to my mind!!!!
Arrma and Traxxas all the way!

I think the problem is to do with the fact that whilst Traxxas are US company and Arrma UK (Although US owned by Horizon I think) they both get most of the cars and parts made in the far east and this virus has caused a massive hold up in their supply chain of 2 or more likely 3 months, this is why a lot of cars are in short supply as are spares. I am in touch with people in China and life is returning to normal in a lot of places BUT then they got hit with this first in Late November, hate to point out that's coming up on 6 months back, so I'm thinking it'll improve in 1-2 months but not be good for another 3. Hope that makes sense. #STAYSAFE
@@DriftomaniacsRC Thanks for that Gov, what you deduced makes perfect sense, probably 3 good months till the big guys and little guys have stock on the Arrmas, I need to order a Senton, any leads you might have would be muchly appreciated good sir! Love your rigs man, you've gotta nice selection, thats for sure!! 👍💯💫
Wait why’s your camera quality worse? I swear your camera quality was better it might just be the camera not focusing
still the same 4k camera....of course the picture you are watching depends SOLELY on your bandwidth.....
Ooooh ok
U should do fast RC under 100 bucks lol
he did
Price IN Canada
Sorry no idea on Canada price, we are based in the USA.
Amain is always out of stock on everything
so is horizon hobby it's the manufacturers across the board that's the issue, pretty much all of them get parts for there cars or their entire cars built in China, and there lies the issue not the big distributors, imagine the problems you're going to have when your LHS opens up with no stock...
Blahhhh kraton is a truggy and so is the e revo thx for the vid
I go by what the makers say, and so if arrma say it's a truggy and traxxas say the erevo is a monster truck I have to roll with it. Although I DO KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN. Both tell porkie pies to my mind!!!!
oh and arrna specificaly say the kraton is a monster truck but the talion is a truggy, sorry I got that wrong in my reply
Haa looks like a truggy acts like a truggy it's a monster truck !
