You might have addressed this in a previous video, but the hot motor could be due to the front motor bearing going out. My granite v3 would barely get past warm until the bearing started to go out. Once that happened my Temps would rise much higher much faster. I swapped the bearings in the motor and it ran much cooler again. Great video man! Just found this channel and I love the videos!

Love my Big Rock. Have had a few durability issues, servo burnt out, rear axle screw broke and stock tyres shredding the hubs out, still great value and the NZ hobby shops seem to have plenty of parts. My motor gets hot but can usually survive the 3 second touch test. I watched a video the other day which said the Arrma 3s line was hard to work on. WTF? From my experience this thing is easy as to work on. Thanks for the video dude.

You can just blast each RC with the compressed air and it brings them up spotless, removing all the dust & debris that builds up on the RC chassis when the shell is removed. Just a Thought ……..

Great vid!! Great truck, matching it up to the Maxx isn't quite apples to apples.... they both hit the same-ish speeds, although one is a 4s. The Maxx has gotta have the wide kit to compare to the big rock. Here's a question, the 4s step up is the kraton, would you want the kraton over the Maxx? Nah, you'd want the Maxx!! Its the effing price point that makes the big rock such an easy choice. Now, ask me, if you're paying, which do I choose, lol.

In my opinion the traxxas maxx is way over priced for what you get! The big rock blows it away for a lot less money! Arrma is putting a hurtin on traxxas! Traxxas Dominated the hobby too long and it went to their head they’re gonna have to step up their game with better Quality and bring their ridiculous prices down or arrma is gonna put them out

I know this video is almost a year old. But for a $396 price point its a good starter RTR. I own a big rock because I wanted to get into RC again. Too many fill like being in car audio again you're always going to have fanboys and they're going to stick to something like a Traxxas it's going to go out and experiment with other things. Now I could have spent $600 to 700 dollars on the Traxxas but a lot of times those people's must go to. But I'm the type of guy I watch tinker on things Plus when I go out and run mine after I'm done I cleaned it out get cleaned out and lubed up again. It's going to own an ATV or motorcycle you got the maintenance on it and you got to maintain it clean it.

Well brother gotta say, i no longer own the big rock. Problem after problem, started with spur, then drive shafts replaced a few and still broke, then the straw that broke the PROVERBIAL back of the camel, the differential in the rear broke, and as for the TRAXXAS MAXX, big rock is not even close to that, the only thing that broke was a steering knuckle, just need to spend a few bones to make it a tank, wide kit, steel cvd, that's about all that I needed on my solar flare maxx.

Between the two I'd say each has their strengths and weakness, Max will be tougher but Big rock will handle better.

For me, it's definently the TRAXXAS MAXX, as it's a completely different construction! As the Driveline and the Motor are build on top of the BigRock, the MAXX ist constructed the better way (my personal opinion), the RC-car is constructed around the driveline/elektronics. To get the same strength of the car you need to invest a lot more into the BigRock to get the same dustability as the MAXX. Also the MAXX is more of a Monstertruck and the BigRock sits a lot lower... I hope I have accomplished a summary of these two cars. I personally really prefer the Maxx, but I'm getting myself a X-MAXX soon, it's the similar but in a bigger scale/size, and I would still choose a X-MAXX than a ARRMA 8S for the same reasons. I am not a Traxxas Fanboy, but in regards of these two cars I prefer Traxxas. My favorite Arrma would be the 6S EXB... There are a lot more Arguments for both cars, and everybody needs to find their own best suited one! :) The Goal is the biggest smile. I apologize for my shi*ty English, I am from Germany and still a englisch learning student. PS: You cut you videos very nice, Matthew! Keep on going and I'll try to support you. People like you are rare, so motivated and active and happy.

Maxx is the better car...but it cost twice to the big rock. So the big rock has the better value.

I hate the arrma big rock. It cost me $200 just worth of parts In only one month, but later on I sold it and bought a traxxas rustler and it worked and lasted a lot longer. Traxxas is definitely recommended!

I have a vortex and I’ve had many problems with it within the first month. The main problem is it keeps spitting out drive shafts. I’ve replaced them five times already. Bent motor mount bad spur gear and the tire eat up quick. It is a fun powerful truck when it’s together but the problem is keeping it together! If I had it to do all over again Mojave 100%. Horizon Hobby has the truck now going through it completely. It might have just been a lemon off the assembly line
