Traxxas HOSS - Ultimate STUNT RC Car??

[@memefish6867]

I'm saving for a traxxas maxx

[@orange1248]

Good pick imo, one of the better RTRs

[@wojtex9570]

Me too

[@rcwreck-creation]

That’s smart! Only a little bit more money & your getting a way better RC!

Well done traxxas for supporting the model shops! Big plus in my book

[@zebracake2246]

"Oooh, supple!"

[@ifly65]

I just ordered an orange one from my buddy who owns a small LHS. That is a great idea to help small businesses. I get mine Friday...Its almost xmas everyday.

[@thunderpumpkin9448]

Can you compare it to a arrma granite? They look the same to me

[@brandonshultz2278]

I think you're absolutely correct. The Hoss will be Arrma's Granite. My granite is a beast too

[@rescuedabyss]

Granite would make the loos look like shit lol

[@KTMcaptain]

No comparison. Granite is like a Pede($380.) The hoss has a larger motor, center diff, and upgraded tires. Adding those to the Pede costs $120, $75, and $70. . Slipper clutch can’t disconnect wheels form each other from shock and also hurts steering. Center diff allows the wheel landed on to stop spinning while the power flows through the other wheels protecting the driveline and allows for better turning. iirc, The larger motor has an 18mm diameter and 38mm long rotor (36x70 can dimensions) which is much considerably larger than the granite and Pede motors. My large rotor comp motor, puller pro 3500kv 540 size motor from Holmes hobbies, has an 18mm diameter and 25mm long rotor. And having larger tires gives greater traction and more weight for rotating and flips.

[@ferbmayne]

I'd say the rival mt10 is closer than the granite in comparison

[@tagchalmers9656]

Oh my god it is beautiful

I like the idea of it only being available at hobby shops for the first 7 weeks. Gives them a chance of surviving

[@paulclancy2404]

2:00 *KEV!* If you look at your Rustler 4x4 you'll see that the front wheels are facing in the wrong direction. The rears are pointing forward but the treads on the front are pointing backward!

[@Thenextlevelrc]

You know what you’re talking about Kevin, this truck Is awesome I’ve got 2 !!

[@icequire2223]

Would using wheel hex hub extensions to give the Hoss a wider footprint be a good idea or a bad idea (to reduce rolling)?

[@finleymakee4850]

It would reduce rolling, but jumping and hard turns will put more stress on the bearings and wear them out faster. It’s also more stress for the plastics. Great for handling, not so great for durability

[@Tejomonstamasta]

4:15 Just another RC beauty sent to Talbot Heaven

[@someonewiththeviolin9955]

Hey there, it's not good for Li-po Akkus to load them up fully. It's better to keep them around 50%. Just wanted to say that

[@rcalltypes8230]

My only complaint about the Traxxas Hoss, is the Price.

All traxxas products are expensive bro even the wheel nuts they sell are like 15 bucks

[@ghettobirdish]

It’s called a hoss, says right in the name it’s gonna cost some money

[@rcalltypes8230]

@ Sure thing, your right. Here in Australia, the Traxxas Hoss is $930 in a Local Hobby Shop. For $899 you can buy a Arrma Typhon 6s 1/8 Buggy. So the little Traxxas Hoss is to expensive, $230 more than a Traxxas Stampede VXL 4x4 at $700.

[@EXTREMERC416]

The value of the hoss would be 400$ at MAX? You can get a 4s truck for that money man.. no wait hoss is over 450$ 🤣 bunny hop king tho

[@rcalltypes8230]

@@ghettobirdish I know right, they should have called it the Stampede XL (long wheel base) 4x4. It would have been cheaper 😎😂

[@evanvandevelde9891]

I've been looking for a long time for a rc car as strong as the slash and as agile as the rustler and i think this ones fits the bill pretty good. love your stuff kev, keep it up

[@falcondragonslayer]

Same. Originally I was thinking the Slash 4X4 VXL but I currently have a Stamoede and love the feel of a monster truck. Don’t get me wrong, my brother just got a Slash 4X4 VXL and it handles like a dream, but I want the raw feeling of power I get with a monster truck. Plus the self-righting, higher-torque motor and sledgehammer tires will be great Might need to get some sway bars though. I’ll have to see how well it stays on its feet or if it flips as easily as my Stampede

Interesting that you will be trying the TRX batt/charger. I have a Deans 3s and thinking about picking up a Maxx. I was originally planning to convert the ESC to Deans, but if I ever try 4s, I'm not sure Deans is the best option. I need a second charger anyway, so considering taking the plunge and getting the Traxxas single "Live" charger and the TRX 5ah 3s to go with it all...

i find it pretty funny actually how like little kids in the skate park get so hyped of them cars, i went to a skate park with my little 1/18 scale and they absolutely loved it. its quite a shame i can't afford one of those bigger and faster models, i would love to see their reaction to that!
