My wife surprised me with my 3. S vorteks brushless RC car back in March of this year as a gift to celebrate me. Overcoming sepsis and pneumonia and a blood infection that tried to kill me. She knew that I loved all R. C everything and I had to give all of it up years ago due to financial distress. I have been loving being back with that car. In the hobby, my wife has since gotten her own Arma. Big rock and my kids have gotten into the hobby too. We also have boats now, but it all started off of my car. So I agree. It is one of the best. I would also go as far as to say that you guys are top-notch. I am grateful to be here to watch your content

They have to protect their brand and product. Everyone copies things from them. Like nintendo or apple of the rc world. I dont blame them for protecting their brand. I think you get a good value with their cars. Especially their nitro cars. Arrma is cheaper but it looks like a knock off rc brand. The only thing they made original imo is the outkast/granite and infraction. I want an infraction pretty bad. Ive owned a kraton 4s. The electronics were pretty bad, the car ended up having a glitch and doing a full throttle runaway into a curb. The car exploded, they ended up warrantying it but only cause they got it to glitch again. I had to buy another 150 dollar spectrum remote to “upgrade” it. I dont feel like I have to do much to my traxxas cars. Traxxas gets a ton of hate but they are a great brand imo. I mostly stick to Traxxas, kyosho, and tamiya.

On a cold day, maybe, but lipos are just as happy at 60 degrees as they are at 80 degrees. I'm tired of hearing this myth from every Tom Dick and Harry. Lipos only freak out below 40 degrees, and they perform their best at 70-90 degrees. It doesn't look like it's below 70 degrees the day of filming, so put your snake oil comment elsewhere, sir or ma'am.

10th scale much more exciting than Grom. Sorry, that's how i feel. Traxxas is making its own mini max. It will be brushless, but that means it'll probably be $300 for a 2s truck with a proprietary battery compartment. And it'll smell like rotten fish and the tires will be square blocks of wood with nails in them.

I dunno. I don't think you get demonetized for saying "gun" I watch plenty of video game channels that are monetized and they say "gun" all the time. No offense meant, please understand, and you are free to say or not say what you like, but I'm pretty sure they let you say that word. In fact, even the supposedly more restrictive KZbin Kids videos (specifically the MJX 10th scale truck preview video) say the F word in them. I don't know why MJX released a video for kids with song lyrics saying f**k multiple times, but it's marked as a kids video. Not very classy of them.
@TheRcSaylorsАй бұрын
That’s crazy of MJX!! I had no idea! Sheesh 😬 Yeah it feels so weird to live in a “free” country but have so many restrictions on what we can and can’t say, or even to feel like we are restricted is just as bad. I think it’s more along the lines of some advertisers don’t want to be associated with certain words, so we just try to be careful about it. I appreciate the input here though!! It’s the only way we really stay in the loop on this sort of thing. Hope you’re having a great day! 👍💯😎⚓️

For a beginner, it's nice to have a good warranty service, with no questions asked and no BS. Traxxas warranty is like pulling teeth, if you get service in the first place. Horizon Hobby just wants a picture, and then they ship you the replacement. No hassle. I've never gotten a successful warranty replacement from Traxxas. Horizon Hobby replaced things for me 4 out of the 5 times I asked.
