3s lipo on that 18 pinion will make it hot enough to cook 5 meals for 5 families lol. I got 2s for it and 2s is perfect for everything really. Its a monster on a carper track though. Going to one today and testing the 2s. Great video.
Frank and beans
I didn’t realize the throttle was just an on - off switch?!?
🤔Unless it’s your throttle control?
Did you say you race buddy?
It’s sensorless son.
A B come race me.
Honestly though, I have had this car now for a little while now and it is far more controllable than this guy is making it look even on 3s. He says he races as he punches it on the turn just to see it go shooting over the pipe boundary. Driving any rc car like that is going to make running it on a track miserable. You're right, it is as though it's all or nothing on that throttle, like he is pressing a button. Timestamp 0:40 and 3:10 are great examples of throttle control.
We’re in so. Cal can I buy this close to Rowland Heights?
And for the best price!
Thank you
Great video. Love your "James Woods"-sounding voice! Lol!
Hmm never heard that one. Archer and Bobs Burger voice I get.
I can't get the front of the body on/off easily either... Haha
Thank you for an honest review not everyone wants to spend hundred's of dollars to destroy it at a skate park but do want to know if it's a good track truck and can handle the knocks
Traxxas needs to start making 1/8 scale stuff
That thing is beast!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍
Nice thing about these traxxas cars is that you can switch to a center diff if you want and sway bar kits.
To much power. 2s for me
I put the hot racing sway bar kit on mine n it handles so much better, also I put a 14 tooth pinion n it adds speed n temps stay good
Mine overheats on a 12 tooth. Any idea?
@@AM-wi6zo did u change ur spur gear? Is there anything binding? The gear mesh could be to tight n causing it to over heat
@@AM-wi6zo same here I bought the traxxas fan for the esc it no longer heats up as bad it's only a little hot but my motor still heats up
JAVEDOG1 GAMING how much was the fan
It's not hard to drive it on a track. Whoever drove it is just bad.
MateoRMB anytime you want to race. I am open. We can do lap times with this car on joes track.
MateoRMB agreed whoever was controlling this car the whole video absolutely sucks at everything to do with it
Hey bro. I subscribed, I don’t normally but you were pretty insistent. The it doesn’t cost you anything it helps me out thing got me. It worked. Good psychology there.
This car looks like too much for my nine year old. What would you recommend? Sounds like you know your stuff
John Richardson you can use a 2s pack and turn down the speed.
Great review gotta get one
Put a fan on it the motor if they don't eat.Put a sixteen pin year in it and have the best time of your life
Nice review, really high quality production value. Where are you guys located? The hills look like Northern California.
Razor RC Southern California.
Cool video 😎 check out this crazy monster truck th-cam.com/video/M4j4HEliExY/w-d-xo.html
Set your speed tip 85% and 45% reverse.❤😊
Fan on the e s c fan on the motor in a sixteen pinion gear❤
Great vid thanks bro I’m buying one
Just a quick question do you have to change the pinion gear when running 2s lipo??
Nah
Damn did a 3year old drove the Rustler on the tarmac?! Flipping and crashing all the time.. wtf?! Throttle management sucks balls in this video.
An 9yr old at our local track controlls his Rustler 4x4 (and my Erevo 2.0) better then this.
J vD come drive the 3s version on the track lol. Sensor less blows on a track. Some of that video the TSM was acting funny. We had to reset it 3 times before it was messed up.
But we can race lap times for beer.
It’s not just you with the front is just really hard
Thanks got a slash for my son looking now for me. But after this another slash looks like the right one for me better control. The slash running on 2 s and hitting 42 mph did some up grades landscaping now straight at full speed. He will want to race me . So thanks to this vid I know the Rustler is not my truck. Keep up the good work
Lands straight lol hate auto correct . It's always wrong.
Great review. I'd only get one due the 4wd and increased bans of Nitros out here (noise)... Otherwise, I still love my Nitrosport (now modded to a Rustler).
I'm looking to get a good rc that can do offroading for my dogs to chase. What would you recommend for a $150-200 budget.
Mine won’t chase this 1/10th scale but 1/8th he goes ape shit over.
Shits literally just a slightly smaller e revo
Great vid. From your driving clips it din't look like you had the TSM on. I would've helped. ;D Also hen the car hits the camera my ears start burning, it's a sudden spike in volume. XD
Fred The Flippin' Puffer Fish the stability was messed up for a few minutes. We had to reset it a few times. Stability doesn’t help on a small track with an overpowered car.
Volume is hard to adjust for everything. What i edit on it doesn’t spike as much. But others it does.
Agree with the front end clip
Love mine.
The only reason it flips so much is because he has it on sports mode. Sports mode is supposed to accelerate the car on the quick when it's on a racing track..
Out of curiosity, with that thing torquing to the rear so much would a little weight in the front end reduce the constant Wheeling...I have one and as in the video this machine has way to much torque in the rear making it want to dance on its hind legs all the time. Fortunately for me though where I am I do not have access to pavement that is wide open so my throttle is more on the short burst end with hill climbing and jumping.
hows this compared to bison v3 in terms of handling? and centre of gravity tipping over factor?
:)
👍👍👍
I love seeing bashers on the track. Wouldn't have ut any other way
Anyone know what kind of 3s battery and charger would fit and be best for this thing? I keep hearing people saying stay clear of traxxas batteries. Not sure why. Can get the traxxas charger and 3s 4000mah for around $80. Thought that was a good deal. Kinda new to this hobby. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
nicknasty14 Traxxas batteries are fine. They aren’t hardcased but they are the same as other soft shell batteries.
so why cant they make Life size ones so people can actually drive them maybe the size of the average UTV ....
Did you just reinvent a UTV :)
Fyi you want to put on a fan to run that 3 cell or you will ruin the motor
Smaller pinion also gets hot as hell compared to the slash
It is very hard to find correct batteries since I'm new to the hobby. I just bought this RC, as well as the Ez peak charger and a 3000 mah traxxas battery. Can you recommend me a battery that I don't need adapters for for this truck?
Dylan Porter just get the traxxas packs or look for a regular size with traxxas connectors.
Anything i knew about rc is about 15 years old i picked one of these up on a wim at a pawn shop rtr with charger for 140$ so impressed this is soooooooo fucking cool
Awesome. Now sign up for the magazine and get reading 🎸
I just drove my new build and went straight to a center diff, big bore shocks and gyro. I have the sway bars to put on as well. On my first drive (2S) I couldn't get it out of shape. I'd be curious how you like the handling with some of these upgrades.
Mike Jensen the TSM makes a huge difference. Some part of the video had our tsm acting crazy. First I thought it was the driver but it was turning randomly. We reset it and had no issues. We generally try to test with no aides. They work too good.
I like mine it takes a licking and keeps on ticking
the front clip is like impossible
Badass
traxxas is terrible
Not sure that’s a true statement. Why.
@@vrcmag it is only the experience I have with traxxas, yours could be something better
What experience. You didn’t say what it was
@@vrcmag the chassis aren't the best and really won't hold up to bashing. such as hoss and rustler and 4 tec .
all this rustler needs is a driver mod ! Lol 0 throttle control 😂😂😂
andrew leavesseur anytime somebody wants to race on this track with this truck on 3s if you beat me you keep the truck.
Traxxas xmaxx 8s?
If you're right next to it and it's flipped over . Just flip it over you lazy ass . Using the self right is if its super far away & chews your shit up but guess you'll find that out if you keep driving it like that . I'd give it a month maybe less
It comes with auto flip and we don't care if it lasts a month. :)
How much are they?
$150?
donnan huggler review and full details are in the review in the magazine.
donnan huggler is 375
No center dif is a huge weak point on this car imo. Everyone wants to mention your throttle control without regarding the lack of a center dif, which I think plays a bigger role in the car always flipping over.
