My Maxx can take a BEATING! It was fine stock because I run on loose surfaces and when on grass, it was fun to control the roll with the throttle. I have since installed WideMaxx, steel CVD's, splines hubs, aluminum C-hubs, HR aluminum steering bellcrank, and my stock X-Maxx servo with steel gear kit (steering is super strong now) and the truck is just great. Still haven't spent near as much on it as my Kraton LOL. The Maxx is now a "high performance" monster truck. BUT, the Maxx dies not need any of the hopups. Stock is super fun and durable.

It’s VERY WELL worth it. The thing that pisses me off is the drive shafts and the plastic parts. I have pretzeled those things and they twisted and snapped off twice now. Once during regular driving and almost totally tonight. I just purchased some sweet Pro-Line Badlands MX 38 3.8” mounted tires. Looked gorgeous on the car. The truck handled them fine but the drive shafts started to pretzel and I was taking it VERY slow and easy too so I could get a feel for the tires because they are quite larger than the stock maxx tires. Anyhow. I’m wondering if I should just bite the bullet and go with the steel drive shafts and take the time to install them before I go ahead and return these tires. Would be a shame to return the sweet tires if the car could handle them with the upgrades drive shafts. The thing should come with the steel shafts anyways.

The Traxxas maxx is amazing! It’s extremely durable I jump mine all the time and haven’t had to repair a single thing on it. As for the rolling over it’s blown way out of proportion. If you drive the truck normal and slow down for turns it almost never flips. In fact I’m not sure I even want to buy the wide maxx kit because I don’t have any issues with it rolling over on me. I think people are trying to take corners like it’s a car and that’s just not what it was designed for.

Can you do a comparison between this and the tekno mt410 ?

I had a hobby shop put the widmax on. Did you have any problems? All my drive shafts twisted not sure what to do.

With the wide kit, is the self-righting function still working as good or does it effect this negatively?

Your going to hate it without the driveshaft upgrades

To my memory, Ive never owned a truck that rolls as easily as my Maxx, and Im old enough to fart dust. It's a fantastic truck otherwise, so I can only imagine the stock Maxx roll issue is partially the result of a meddling marketing genius.... Engineers: "Weve made a really good truck here!" Marketing: "That's great! Now take off these parts so we can sell those for extra $$$.

My GraveDigger (Rustler) understeers so bad you can't even turn on pavement. It's ridiculous. If you 'do' happen to turn in at low-to-med speed it just flips over. I don't need another truck like this so I known I would be super frustrated with the Maxx. Not buying it.

@@bcastromusic The gravedigger is not a rustler. It's a stampede. The stampede actually handles quite similar to the maxx.

Serious question, if you still have this truck would you be interested in selling it??
