Best Budget RTR platform? MAVERICK STRADA SC unboxing, test, review!

[@Barney-rd6hx]

Love my strada sc . An ebay bargain too. Great vid mate

[@TrekRC]

Thanks, it’s a great car. Will be doing a speed test on 2s and 3s lipo next

@@TrekRC on 3s it's mental

[@TrekRC]

Haha, just ran mine on 3s. The motor got really hot though. Do you have the brushed or brushless version?

[@Barney-rd6hx]

@@TrekRC I have the brushless one .

Sweeeeet. Thanks for sharing.

[@TrekRC]

Thanks for watching 😁👍

Do you think it is worth the money because I am looking at one of them for a basher that I don’t really care about but the only think is the speed do you think it is quick enough for like bashing and jumping it and other stuff?

[@TrekRC]

It’s not that fast. I got around 25mph on 2s on grass. But if you drop in a 2s/3s brushless motor and esc, it brings the speed up loads. Maverick also sell a brushless RTR version but it’s more expensive. I wouldn’t recommend jumping this car because the body gets damaged easily. Maverick sell a buggy version (strada XB) which would probably be better. Hope this helps👍

@@TrekRC ok thanks. but is if good for bashing I don’t really care about the body not being strong but do you think it will be a good basher if I run it on a 2s lipo. And does it take a beating.

[@vinnie_carmedia3819]

@@TrekRC and would you recommend running it all the time of 3s and how do you switch to lipo mode

[@TrekRC]

It’s decently strong but not great. Needs a few upgrades if you bash a lot. I recommend getting universal joint driveshafts in the front and upgrading the servo. I’ll do an overview of the car soon and show all the e stuff I’ve done to mine. Running the stock setup on 2s is fine. 3s will burn out the motor (I’ve done that😂). The manual shows how to switch to Lipo mode.

@@TrekRC ok thanks so much i appreciate it. Is it worth the 50£ more and to get the brushless one. Because I am only 13 and I have to work for the money so yeah I don’t have much and I have to convince my dad to let me buy another one 😂

[@rbkarenyt8253]

@trekrc does it have any porportional control?

[@TrekRC]

Yep, steering and throttle are both proportional 👍
