I'm not gonna lie as it looks really nice and definitely digging that orange color but for over $800 just for a kit,I would like to see more metal parts on that thing,mainly the wheels.

[@d.khoung359]

Wow. For 850 buck. Can't even include aluminum wheels.

When you made your first couple videos of the Wraith, I fell in love with the truck. I wanted one so bad back then I was only probably 12 years old. I have always wanted one and looking forward to getting one next summer.

Excellent video. You cleared up questions I had about this model right away. You just sold one of these trucks, I will order it as soon as I can beg my wife out of the money.

[@lucasebastian1250]

wow 800 bucks and they cant even include metal beadlocks

[@AMain_Hobbies]

I know, right! But the truck contains so many premium items, like the portal axles that retail for $500 by themselves, that the wheels help keep the overall price down. The aluminum wheels would have been nice, but you have to imagine that the guys who buy this truck probably already own their favorite aluminum wheels, which they could fit on the Ultra. -Brett

@@AMain_Hobbies i dont care. It should include metal beadlocks. That's rediculous. Plastic wheels for for an 800+ rig?

[@whendeathdeclareswar7458]

mike grant i know right, just buy the axles and put them in a SCX, crossRC, RC4WD and so on chassis, they even went cheap on the transmission. No motor and no servo, here in NZ the old "pro" model, they cost $1500 plus electronics, that's the price of 4 SCX build kits. The moment you realize this video is an ad for vanquish.

Hmm. I really appreciate what they've done with this truck but I guess I'm a little too cheap. I've been driving a 900$ Cherokee for a year now so it's tough to justify lol

I think I will get one to just putt around with and display. Can't see taking such a nice truck over the rocks.

Nice detailed info about the Ultra. Still happy with my recent Pro purchase. Will probably build an Ultra for my wife...to give her portals. For me, the Pro was the best build ever; so, looking forward to putting together an Ultra.

I still think it is more enjoyable to build this truck over time then simply buying it as one unit and having very little to upgrade. That said the vanquish VS 4 10 is as good as it gets

It would be awesome to work at a Hobby shop like Amian. I cant even imagine what the store is like. I bet it is huge. 53 years old and now disabled. I never been in a real RC hobby shop. I have a lot of time and need a good hobby like this. so expensive tho it is not in my budget. I mean i could maintain an RC truck I just can't afford to buy one.

[@masonhickey]

On amazon you can get fairly good cars for an inexpensive price, you should look up WLtoys and you will find some good beginner cars for $80-100.

[@sameuljones5496]

Start a business doing crawler maintenance. I started my Rc Crawler maintenance business 10 years ago. Today we employ 5 fulltime staff. 3 are qualified mechanics by trade and two are engineers by trade. We have lathes and machine shop tooling within our workshop, we do everything from pre sale inspections of rc crawlers, to full strip down and rebuilds of diffs and transmissions. We also have branched out into modification work making one off bumpers, guards and all technical parts that take our customers crawlers to the next level. All our rebuild work comes with 2 year warranty of which we have had no returns. Our mechanics do all of the tear downs and rebuilds whilst our engineers fabricate specialist parts. We have just acquired an auto electrician to rewire the crawlers to competition specs. We cover all brands from traxxas thru to the not so popular brands also.

Samuel jones, what name and or a way to contact u a your shop?

Damn.. it's expensive. You gotta really be into scaling, and want the best of the best.

[@Off3er]

"Does more expensive means more better?"

[@jimhimesjr]

Expensive yes but considering your getting $500 axles it’s not a bad price if you’re really into crawling. Don’t think I’d ever pony up the $$ for one though.

[@thomasgross8289]

These are not SO much better to justify the quantum leap in price. You talking like 1.4k and thats going cheap. No fucking way. Trx4 sport litte tweaking to the ride highy and a 25 $ servo Far below $500 and im telling you with a decent drive er you're going to be right there close. The stock body hangs but chopping moding it would.

[@pf465]

Not seeing $800 here, and honestly, I would be more interested if the axles were delrin or slick nylon, or even steel, Aluminum is like glue sticking to rocks. They are half way there with the plastic wheels, why not swallow your pride and finally do a plastic axle. Hell, I would rather see aluminum wheels with plastic axles for $500.

What should I do when my lipo battery does not balance property

[@AMain_Hobbies]

Unfortunately, not a whole lot other than to dispose of it safely. If you can't bring it back, I would follow this disposal method (from the ProTek LiPo Manual): "Submerge the battery into a bucket or tub of salt water. This container should have a lid, but it does not need to be air-tight. Prepare a plastic container (do not use metal) of cold water, and mix in ½ cup of salt per gallon of water. Drop the battery into the salt water. Allow the battery to remain in the tub of salt water for at least 2 weeks. This salt bath will neutralize any remaining power in the battery. Once complete, remove the LiPo and wrap it in newspaper or paper towels, and recycle it at your newest electronics recycle point." Sorry to hear this happened man, but I hope this helps you. -Brett

[@trystanmarshall1867]

@@AMain_Hobbies I was told it can be reused even with it slightly out of balance and plus it's a hard cases lipo

[@AMain_Hobbies]

@@trystanmarshall1867 Your original question stated your battery "does not balance properly." This means something very different than a battery that is "slightly out of balance." A battery that is slightly out of balance, can be balanced, and thusly saved. A battery that "does not balance properly," cannot be balanced, and thusly, cannot not saved. Do you understand the difference? AMain Hobbies does not recommend using any LiPo battery if the cells are not balanced - period. -Brett

[@AMain_Hobbies]

Can you imagine inventing something one day, only to have it stolen and copied, while receiving no credit for your design, work or patent? Counterfeit products do more harm than good, doesn't matter if it's Food, Medication, Automotive Parts, or even R/C Cars. -Brett

[@RpattoYT]

​@@AMain_HobbiesWill still purchase said Chinese knock offs if they're better value for the money. As a consumer I don't care about the company going bust, I care only for real capitalist market forces driving up quality and down cost. Companies with near monopolies over niche corners of already niche hobby drive up the price to unsustainable levels. Especially when conniving unscrupulous businesses are granted patents for things that already exist in full scale.

[@AMain_Hobbies]

Most R/C companies started in a garage. These aren't huge businesses and there are no monopolies. This truck isn't even necessary to enjoy the hobby. When the day comes that all body clips are manufactured under one umbrella and cost $50 each, I'll agree with you. But until then, different strokes for different folks my friend. -Brett

[@Off3er]

We are one part of the problem. We buy knock off china brands, if we supported real brands they could easily keep the price down. On a side note, i am a china knock off buyer 😅.
