I'll never understand why people get so triggered. You bought it to have fun with, you have the knowledge to fix it, make it better and the money to do so. If they want stuff to stay pristine they should buy their own and do that with their own and stop getting so pissy over what you do with your own property. That was a fun video. I'm looking into x Maxx now because over the years you just keep showing how much more durable they are compared to others and the beatings they can take. Not gonna lie. I like watching the destruction and rebuilds
It was entertaining 💯 Xmaxx is very tough!!! Kev kind of got me into the XMAXX's I started with 10th scale R/C then started watching You Tube and founds Kev's channel and the rest is history!!! I love the xmaxx!!!
How rich is Noah??? I can see Kev torture testing to destruction as he is rich but Max destroys everything he touches and that Xmaxx was probably $1500 after a few upgrades.😮
A good friend of mine got me back into RCs about a year and a half ago. He wanted another X-MAXX after he sold his years ago to fund more important things in life. He got his X-MAXX, I got a modded to the teeth Kraton 8S EXB. He wants to keep his body looking nice for awhile, and I'm giving the Kraton absolute hell, nowhere near what Kev does though. I'll give it some time, maybe he'll get another body and get to bashing. One things for sure though, that Kraton is a riot!
If only Xmaxx wasn't so expensive it would be the best RC I think. But once you rebuild other cars to withstand what they can your paying more for something cheaper at the start so it's not half bad even if you have to save to get the Xmaxx it's worth the wait by the looks of this video
The glitching might be the high BEC voltage. The old max6 only went up to 7.4 whereas the new one goes to 8.4. 8.4 might have been enough to fry something and make it glitch. The traxxas receiver is only rated for 6v input. Pretty dumb because most other receivers can handle way more voltage. I use a different radio on mine for high BEC voltage.
Another really good thing about the xmaxx is simply how easy it is to work on. There's not much you can do to it in a bash session that'll require more than a few minutes on the bench to get back ripping again... Even like smashing the chassis completely to pieces is still like a 20 minute job. Incredible engineering these trucks
you need to call the vacuum cleaner" because you suck" what a line ;D ;D awesome video as always, love how the went from 20 minuts to 43 min of demolishing Derbi ;D
i did the exact same thing kev. I think the spec on a traxxas receiver is only 6.0v max input. I blew mine out basically within minutes @8.4. See if 7.4 will hold up longer for you. You’ll still get a boost in performance. I went back to 6.0 on my hobbywing.
Kevin, I commented a couple videos back about how you just smash your RCs no matter what and expressed some dissatisfaction. After you describing how you're just doing what makes you happy and having fun made me realize the lack of perspective I've had for your videos lately. Theres people who love shelf queens and people who love to ride it hard and build it up to handle their style. I do love the new trigger warning at the beginning by the way. Cheers
Always love an X-Maxx durability test. Nicely done Kevin! You guys send it harder than anyone else. Think the stock Traxxas Recievers don't particularly like high voltage Kev... I've had mine nearly 6 years...Stock servo too...Set the end points on it and it'll last. The mods you've done are 100% on the money. People... Listen to Kevin... He knows. They are the best RC you can bash with, and every RC'er should have one..They are that good. Steel gears, Max-6, and a good coat of WD-40 are the bare minimum. One more that wasn't mentioned is 50wt shock oil all round, stock pistons... handles a little better...XRT too.. Awesome vid that had me grinning from ear to ear!! Great to see Ian and the rest of the gang out!!
My first stock servo melted inside on 1 battery driving a round on grass. Upgraded to the HD one striped inside Third one same. So three in about 25 runs. Haven't used to tin over a year because I'm too cheap to buy again out of warranty.
Set your end points on the servo mate... Mines pushing 6 years as are all my bashing buddies...End points os what kills them...oh and outright crash damage.
2.5 years still running the stock servo. Zero issues even while turning 4.4lbs of tires. If the stock Traxxas servo goes out, you don’t buy another Traxxas, get something else
Kev I think all that glitching that happened was from when you set the BEC voltage to 8.4v, the Traxxas receiver is only rated for 6.0v so I think it ended up cooking the receiver in the process. This was definitely a brutal video but so entertaining, keep up the good work! :-)
@@rum_o_clock2667 same dude 🤟 still one of my favourite rc's. always wanted the rival mt10(I think that's what it's called) aswel, as that took a hell of beating from stemp too 😂
I am disabled. I am living my rc adventure through you I absolutely love when things get absolutely destroyed I have a massive smile on my face and thank you for my life so full of joy. Never stop destroying rc cars!!!!! Never listen to the haters they are just jealous can you get your losi grave digger out again?
Kev I reckon when you selected max voltage supply on the BEC on the max 6 esc. The receiver probably can't handle high voltage so you've partially burnt out the receiver. That's the most likely cause of the glitching.
I've been watching Kevin for years now and this year I finally bought a xmaxx 8s 4.0 now I never use any of my other rc cars the xmaxx is my go to every time it's so much fun and takes an absolute beating every time I use it should have bought one 6 years ago
i bet it makes others angry when they see you pull the heavy rc from the body shell (20:24) but its so funny to me how you keep doing it and it keeps coming off :) i had a good laugh watching this video, now i want one even more
Thanks for the uploads kev! Just got a used xmaxx for 600 and have been loving it, this will be a perfect guide for durability upgrades and how much of a beating is possible
Max: "I've done nothing wrong!" Also Max: Destruction of property, assault, harassment, retaliation, driving under the influence (of Kev), street racing, being a menace to society, endangerment, beating a dead Xmaxx
I used to live in a ski town in the days of skier-snowboarder animosity. I would tell people that exact same thing. Skiing or snowboarding? Whichever one puts the biggest smile on your face! ✌️
My 4 year old has been a major fan of your channel since he was 1.5 years old and for his 2nd bday I got him a traxxas slash and he now has quite the collection including the Maxx v2. We both learned alot from watching your channel over the years
32:59 Problem is you set the Servo volt at Max, and the Reciver Can Only handle 5.5-6V MAX..!! So When you are in Air and giv Power, the Reciver is sending fake/wrong signals/rippels to the Esc to Break🤷🏽♂️ So new Reciver and then set it On 6V Max or change the Reciver and transmitter and then 7.5-8.4v☺️😏
honestly the xmaxx has been my dream truck for years now just way to expencive to afford 1k second hand i love watching what there capable of doing just the most entertaining thing all week keep it up love the long videos
The receiver can only take 6v on the bec so maybe that's why it cut out. Then again if you ran it like that before than maybe its something else. Try putting it back to 6v if it isn't fried yet which it probably is by now! 😂
Hey kev, i was wondering if you could make a 2nd challel for the rc rebuilds cause my nana is always asking me to do stuff, so i can't watch the whole live streams
You can’t turn the power up on the servos and electronics it will fry them every time it will make everything faster for a few but then it burns up the receiver then the steering servo
Used to watch your videos and then I took a break from RC stuff. Recently got back into your videos and have been catching up on your old videos. Love the content! Always good vibes, and you genuinely look like you’re having a great time. Keep the content coming!
It's refreshing to watch the bashing of theses rc cars. I didn't even know this existed on this level. Kev and company got me hooked. Thanks for your content. Mississippi is now watching.
When I first got into this hobby, I hated kevin because of how he destroyed all these expensive rc, but as I progress more into this hobby I'm starting to understand its just how we have fun with it! Had my Xmaxx for 3 years, broke parts, fixed it, got some upgrade, bash it again, just lovin it
Kevin... no hate from me.. nor towards the rest of the crew... you show us how tough and durable the xmaxx is... even with the arrmas... you show us where the weak spots are on the rigs.. and how to fix and / or upgrade... thank you again kev for the videos and entertainment...
I gave into Kevin‘s Xmaxx hype a couple years ago and was nothing but disappointed. I warrantied the electronics twice, all of them, and I understand the servo works, but for a truck that cost there’s no way it should be that piss poor and when you’re talking about a company like Traxxas, they don’t pay $200 for servo they pay $8 for a much better servo compared to the $4 dollars they pay for their crappy servo. Either way I still love all of the content. I just don’t buy Traxxas anymore. I am officially an Armma and Losi fanboy!!!
electronics in the arms are not any better plus you have to buy chassis and bulkheads and loads more stuff and still they won't take xmaxx abuse. that's my experience anyway, everyone is different
I agree and armor is the way to go it just puts so much attention to detail in their vehicles they have been improving even though the RCs are super heavy spectrum electronics is way better than Traxxas everybody including you can replaces the electronics in the x-maxx I do so I know either a castle or hobbywing being at these companies are from America we can tell the difference is customer support to Traxxas is very money hungry now warranty blows
Good to see the Vinman out there. You and him and the golf course. Classic. Kev when the Xmaxx buried the nose into the side of the ramp it reminded me of when you hit that thing you were standing on at full speed around 4 years ago.
I love watching all your videos but especially with the old crew out with you! Always a wild fun time. I just sold my Xmaxx again, I’ve owned two of them over the years, but I just don’t have good space to store or run them. I won’t be getting another one for a long while, but they are one of if not the best basher out there as Kev shows.
The biggest problem with me that stock servo is that the ears brake off sometimes. Just put a flat washer that is a bit bigger than the bolt (on each bolt) and that should prevent that from happening. Gpm sells an aluminum housing for the stock servo, but I haven't tried it yet.
Well, probably a bit because of the consumerism. Breaking, replacing parts, repeat etc. And because they wouldn’t do it themselves. Which is irrelevant since Mr Talbot can do what he sees fit. Just ‘the internet’ I suppose.
The only ever RC car I had was back in the day. Grasshopper 2. Built it myself at 11 years old and wrote it off the following day. The technology has changed a lot. A LOT!
very entertaining video kev this thing is beast. I assume the reason is that the BAC voltage being at 8.4 may be giving issues for the esc giving signals to the motor? thus why it was cutting out perhaps having cap pack or something able to hold voltage at the receiver may fix this issue.
Team kyosho forever here but I don’t bash, I race. Two very different machines built for two very different activities, but like Kevin says, whichever one puts the biggest smile on your face.
Love to see old school kids back of you having fun and trashing cars. So much fun to watch. People need to remember that it's actually fun to fix cars. It's all part of it.
Kev, big new fan here! Bought my first xmaxx least week and got my xrt just today❤ watched one of your older vids on the long travel suspension for the xmaxx, didn’t look great on it but I’m thinking it’d be perfect for the xrt to beef up jumping. Would absolutely love to see you do it and give the old Talbot test!!!!
Arrma Big Rock 6S also having this same issue of auto braking when that RC first launched and they rectify it with software update...... so this Max 6 also having that same issue!
Is the self righting issues any more prominent on the Maxx vs XMaxx? I commonly break diff housings using self right in my maxx, considering aluminum diff housing but not preferred (afraid it will limit air control)
I bought a 2024 crf110 and immediately spent 1000$ in parts to make it better. They’re awesome stock but when it’s a kids bike it needs some big kid upgrades to be comfortable for a 6ft 170 pound man. Same situation as xmax, fine for kids but adults find the absolute limit
I just got an xmaxx,took it out today for the first drive other than infront of the house. The thing is a beast,i have the perfect pass servo in it and on dirt it was so easy to drift for its size!

There could be an rpm or voltage limit that makes the X Maxx cut out in the air once the motor reaches a certain speed
How did you fit the 35/13 tooth set up. I had to lift my motor slightly the be able to fit it as if i don't the motor simply will not fit.
I call the monkey metal for. Chinesium. China metal 50%iron and 50% is stuff they took up from the ground. Various things. 😊
You can’t turn the power up on the servos and electronics it will fry them every time it will make everything faster for a few but then it burns up the receiver then the steering servo
The absolute best RC truck ever made was the ANIMAL. The one that had claws that came out of the wheels when it lost traction. That was COOL!!!!

very entertaining video kev this thing is beast. I assume the reason is that the BAC voltage being at 8.4 may be giving issues for the esc giving signals to the motor? thus why it was cutting out perhaps having cap pack or something able to hold voltage at the receiver may fix this issue.
Team kyosho forever here but I don’t bash, I race. Two very different machines built for two very different activities, but like Kevin says, whichever one puts the biggest smile on your face.
Love to see old school kids back of you having fun and trashing cars. So much fun to watch. People need to remember that it's actually fun to fix cars. It's all part of it.
does the 13/35 tooth MOD 1.5 equal stock gearing?
im guessing its in the middle between stock low and high speed gearing
Kev hows 3d printing going
Kev have you had a go with an mjx hyper go 10802 yet? Id like to know your thoughts.
Kev, big new fan here! Bought my first xmaxx least week and got my xrt just today❤ watched one of your older vids on the long travel suspension for the xmaxx, didn’t look great on it but I’m thinking it’d be perfect for the xrt to beef up jumping. Would absolutely love to see you do it and give the old Talbot test!!!!
Arrma Big Rock 6S also having this same issue of auto braking when that RC first launched and they rectify it with software update...... so this Max 6 also having that same issue!
I love that saying "the best rc is the one that puts the biggest smile on your face" its just so true on so many levels.
Is the self righting issues any more prominent on the Maxx vs XMaxx? I commonly break diff housings using self right in my maxx, considering aluminum diff housing but not preferred (afraid it will limit air control)
I can’t describe how much I love this channel!!! Keep it up kev !!!🎉👍😀
Glad you enjoy it!
Excellent XMAXX upgrades, Kev!
Looks like your spellchecker may need an upgrade too... 😄
i did the self right once and it blew out a diff could of been on its way out but not sure
Nobody has more fun than you!! What an awesome bash!!! (no rc's were UNHARMED in this video) Thanks for posting!!
I bought a 2024 crf110 and immediately spent 1000$ in parts to make it better. They’re awesome stock but when it’s a kids bike it needs some big kid upgrades to be comfortable for a 6ft 170 pound man. Same situation as xmax, fine for kids but adults find the absolute limit
I just got an xmaxx,took it out today for the first drive other than infront of the house. The thing is a beast,i have the perfect pass servo in it and on dirt it was so easy to drift for its size!
The best RC-Chanel on YT!!!
Great Entertainment!!!!!
Glad you enjoy it!
