PROLINE BRUTE XMAXX! - How strong is it?

[@danieldaniels4168]

I have the same tires but stearing is baaad. Which Servo are you running and which servo arm? I have the JX46kg.

[@willeymunda]

Does this come with the holes pre-cut for the cage and latch?

[@HughsReviews]

My stock body only lasted like a month an a half. I’ve had this proline body for 6 months and only thing I’ve noticed is the back corners of the bed are worn through but still strong. Just ground down a little from grinding on the road.

[@RandalSaint]

Great vid Matthew! Happy New Year!

[@MatthewSimm]

Thanks Randal! And a happy new year to you too mate 😀

[@rayrod9010]

what motor are you running?

[@freerangehuman1976]

What’s your opinion on the pro line trencher for the Xmaxx?

[@meanf1502]

What motor is in that

[@MatthewSimm]

It's the hobbywing 1650kv and Max 6 combo

[@ryand5665]

Sounds like a bent driveshaft. There is a cheep easy fix out there for it. Just cut the shaft in half, ad one of the little splined gear things and a 4$ 3D printed bracket. Works awesome and only costs 15$

[@MatthewSimm]

Oh I didn't think it could be that, thanks dude!!

[@Deej_RC]

Did you replace the motor?

[@SteelCityRC]

Awesome showing of the brute body. Many different locations and abuse. Shame the 1650kv motor shaft broke off. That motor seems to be pretty rowdy. I use the HW 1100kv with mod 1.5 gearing. That 1650kv seems to be a bit more crazy. The standing backflips alone. I don't think mine will do that. Same ESC too max6. Great video!!

[@MatthewSimm]

Thanks dude, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Honestly, I think the standing back flips are thanks to the trenchers haha, they are seriously grippy wheels but they are heavy so I'd still go with stock wheels or something lighter haha 😄 I'll also probably get an 1100kv soon! Much thicker shaft lol

[@adriandepietro7447]

How do u like those batteries?

[@MatthewSimm]

Yeah they're pretty good dude 👌

[@ZozzMiata]

Use washers on the hood. Mine pulled the screws through. Also need some protection on tailgate edge. But the rest is fine. Awsome triple flip

[@MatthewSimm]

Hey cheers for the advise dude! I'll be sure to do that!

[@emmanuelpadilla3936]

What kind of app are you using to track how fast it is?

[@MatthewSimm]

Its the skyrc app but you'll need the Skype gps to go with it 😀

[@emmanuelpadilla3936]

Thank you very much

[@emmanuelpadilla3936]

Do you think the Dear RC 300 e it’s a good RC car

[@emmanuelpadilla3936]

?

[@MatthewSimm]

There is better for the money but it's not a bad rc car

[@nichlaslomholt66]

Hey man what punch setting did you have on your max6 in this video thanks 😃

[@theirishaxe9405]

What motor are you running? I put in a SSS 5694 1000KV in my basher xmaxx and it will just smoke my castle 2028 xmaxx. Also bro instead of waisting your time with drywall tape and shoe goo just get spray on rhino lining line for truck bed liner it really beefs the body you can't crack it or tear it it's amazing

[@steveblackbird]

Is Rhino lining available in Australia bud? I've looked for it to no avail.. only in the States.

[@theirishaxe9405]

@@steveblackbird ok ebay aerosol herculiner same thing. Id leave you a link but KZbin erases them. Just make sure do one light coat at a time and it's really thick like flexible plastic so it takes longer to dry but it's worth it man.

[@daytonarob-rc4402]

Tape and goo!!!!!!!!!!! Happy new year Matt! Hope all is well bud.

[@MatthewSimm]

Hey Rob! Happy new year mate 😀 all Is well here, how about yourself?

[@TheGhostman132]

What is your shock setup? Seems like you have good combination of driveability and chassis slap prevention.

[@MatthewSimm]

Pretty much stock dude, but the bigger wheels may help and I did adjust the the suspension ride height to be a little higher

[@mattvesta5721]

Cold weather and bashing is not a good result for this shell... I’ve cracked both sides of the back part, and the stickers literally fly off on crashes while is cold...

[@fumasrcs1886]

so much power! xmaxx tough baby✋

[@MatthewSimm]

That's it dude 😉

[@robbosrc]

Except I didn't get grill or headlight stickers

[@steveblackbird]

Happy new Year Matt! Shame the motor shaft broke. Gotta love an X-Maxx bash. What I love the most about Traxxas, parts aren't that expensive. Hope you get the beast out soon again. The old 6S X-Maxx motor was 1600kv too, if you can find one. I got one to match with my Max-6 ESC. From memory the X-01 has a 1600kv.. hmmmmm wonder if that would fit? Bodyshell looks pretty good.. been eyeing off the Brute bodyshells for when mine falls apart. You can do my stickers any day mate.. I ALWAYS make a mess of them hahahaha

[@MatthewSimm]

Hey Steve! Happy new year mate! 🎉 The motor was a hobbywing 1650kv, but I had another one in my Mojave haha, I'm considering just going with the 1100kv 8mm shaft, I'm not sure yet haha. So far so good with the body but time will tell!

[@Deej_RC]

Centre drive shaft is broken pretty sure! I broke 3 in 1 month the sad thing is the connecting gear from drive shaft to rear diff is always get broken and you can’t buy it separately.

[@petergoodwin2465]

I build a few old muscle cars mate , try high temp bearing grease. Super crap auto may have it but Autobahn will for sure. Great video mate, as usual you killed it. Happy New year to you guys.

[@MatthewSimm]

Hey thanks Peter! Much appreciated 🙏

[@noquarterschavez5415]

Matt, You’re the next Kevin Talbot. Great Video

[@MatthewSimm]

Hey thanks bro 😀 although I've got a long way to go before I hit 1mill subs like Kevin haha

[@dirtydixx6168]

Have you tried spraying 'bully rubber liner' instead of shoe go and tape? Me neither 😅 but curious to see if it works.. 🤔

[@MatthewSimm]

I haven't but I've definitely thought about trying it! 🤔

[@SpeedSyko]

MATT!!! Epic video!!! That my favorite body, FYI TO EVERYONE, When THAT Body gets COLD., IS CRACKS bad. Destroyed a new one in one run. Epic video Matt! Loved the video! 👍💯

[@MatthewSimm]

That's good information dude! I'm glad in Australia that it'll never get cold enough for that haha, although this heat is crazy 🤪

[@Bawla187]

Luv the new shell. 👍🏾

[@MatthewSimm]

Thanks dude 😀

[@adamdatson4646]

Yay!! Xmaxx content :-D

[@MatthewSimm]

And more to come... once I fix the arm haha

[@emmanuelpadilla3936]

Can you make another video about the RC car 300 E please

[@MatthewSimm]

I don't have it any more sorry

[@I_nutted_in_ur_mum]

When’s the next video coming

[@MatthewSimm]

Within the next 24-48 hours 😉

[@I_nutted_in_ur_mum]

@@MatthewSimm ok

[@OzzyChronic]

Nice body bro. I love the Kevin Talbot quote, haha. Still waiting for my xmaxx. Stock issues in Australia 🤦

[@MatthewSimm]

Cheers dude! Oh stock in Australia is terrible for most things, when I bought mine a year ago, I got the last one on the internet I could find! And I looked hard haha

[@miketube6662]

Just ordered them zeee 9000 batteries for my x max I haven’t got yet lol End of February for the solar flare one So iam waiting till then great vids 👍

[@I_nutted_in_ur_mum]

I know how u feel bro I’m from Australia And parts take forever. If there is anything in stock

[@OzzyChronic]

@@miketube6662 January 28th I've been told is the approx date the solar flare lands

[@michielpoortvliet3003]

Still waiting here till weather improves...meanwhile im spending more money for my xmaxx on rpm, integy etc etc.

[@MatthewSimm]

I'm guessing you're getting snow? Because I've got the heat and lots of it haha

[@joshc6080]

What motor and ESC? 1650 with max 6? Awesome run! 🤘

[@MatthewSimm]

Thanks bro and yeah that's the one, although, I'd probably recommend the 1100kv haha

[@rcuintheshed6981]

Proline body looks awesome...... ahhhhh the pain of putting stickers on great vid bro 👊👍💯

[@MatthewSimm]

Hey thanks bro! The stickers are tedious but worth it haha

[@rcuintheshed6981]

There a nessecary evil good decals make it look amazing

[@robbosrc]

I've got the proline brute bash body on my kraton 6s

[@MatthewSimm]

Nice bro! How's it holding up?

[@robbosrc]

@@MatthewSimm yeah awesome bro when I order my Xmas this week I’m going to order the brute body also cheers bro 👍

[@MatthewSimm]

Nice dude! Good to hear because I'm sick of spending money on body shells hahaha

[@robbosrc]

@@MatthewSimm I hear you bro! My Kraton 6s shell lasted afew bashing sessions before it looked years old!

[@MikeStallone]

Those tires are awesome for stunts huh?

[@MatthewSimm]

They are good, but I think they're too heavy, I'll be going back to stock soon

[@joseperezpaz9986]

Such a beast!

[@bubblesrcshed]

When running hardened steel pinion and spur gear ⚙️ you have to land perfectly or the stress transfers too well…you found out. That’s what I always run plastic spur and pinion on bashers as I never land well 😝 Great video brother man I need an XMaxx in my lineup for spring

[@MatthewSimm]

Unfortunately a plastic spur and pinion just insant an option for such a large car 😀

[@bubblesrcshed]

@@MatthewSimm doesn’t the stock Traxxas parts that come with it plastic spur and pinion ?

[@MatthewSimm]

Nah, the bigger ones are metal 😀

[@bubblesrcshed]

@@MatthewSimm good too know thanks man I learnt something today 👍👊👍

[@fergusbuster4695]
