X-Maxx Proline Brute Body After 100 Days

[@HughsReviews]

I got mine yesterday. I used steel wool to scuff up the surface and cleaned with rubbing alcohol before applying stickers.

[@johncomito4853]

Yeah, a year ago I found out why the servo kept going out on my truck. The knob on the radio was turned up too high the managers son finally found the problem.

[@weed4myneed]

nice, got the proline brute bash on my 1/8 kraton and has held up way better than stock. It also helps by shielding components on upside down landings

[@RCMANIAC-YT]

For sure!

[@bridlingtonrcbashers9230]

Great video. Was thinking of getting this body. You now convinced me👍👍

[@RCMANIAC-YT]

Glad to hear it! You will not regret it!

[@robertcasey1701]

Yea my body cracked to in the same areas try using jb epoxy for the cracks if they get larger.

[@willeymunda]

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

[@mattvesta5721]

If it’s too cold, it will crack, be careful, it’s still, a great body...

Keep up the great work brother💪

Thanks 👍

Nice video bro 🙌

Can you paint these? Will it stick?

[@johncomito4853]

Have you had any problems with The steering servo my steering servo keeps blowing out every other time I drive the truck the hobby stores keep changing the part but I keep having the problem do you think maybe the receiver could be bad it makes me not enjoy the truck

[@RCMANIAC-YT]

Oh boy... Yes I went through my stock 2085 servo in a matter of a week or two lol. I have since been through way too many of the 2085X (the traxxas upgraded one) and they just kept dying after one run. They of course were replaced from warranty still annoying tho. I first thought it could have something to do with the receiver so I replaced it and it still went out. I also tried using a different TQI transmitter and this was all happening when I was switching my esc and motor to the Max6 and 1600kV so I had replaced literally every single electronic piece in the truck. At this point I’m pretty frustrated as I still had another one go out. Replaced it yet again lol but this time I haven’t had any problems for at least 6 months. Sorry for the long answer lol I just have a lot to say about this because I got so wrapped into a chain of servo destruction lol.

[@RCMANIAC-YT]

Honestly if I were you and could go back I would go straight for the Savox 2290 I’ve heard great things about that servo. It’s more powerful and it’s not Traxxas electronics lol. You will need an adapter and I think a new horn but I’m not sure. Do a quick KZbin search and I’m sure you can find out everything about fitting that servo.

[@simonasimak9523]

Its not servo fault its the way you drive and the way you bash landings etc.

[@edwardwester5968]

Definitely a good video

[@RCMANIAC-YT]

Thanks Ed!

[@Sheldinator]

what gearing is best for bashing with stock electronics and earplug mod?

[@justinirwin7881]

20/46 in my opinion. Backflip capable

[@Sheldinator]

@@justinirwin7881 isnt 46 the speed gear? Doesnt that heat up the motor when offroad bashing

[@justinirwin7881]

@@Sheldinator that's what Traxxas claims. I have run 20/46 for a while never had an issue ESC and motor is cool to the touch. Since I blew up the 46 tooth spur I put the stock 18/54 gearing back in it and I can tell you there is definitely not enough gear there

Thanks!

keep up

[@rcsendandblast1579]

Good video but that’s a small jump for it to crack. Weak body. I put 600 lbs on my BasherBodies and it don’t crack bend flex or break

[@RCMANIAC-YT]

only cracked because i drilled holes to install tailgate protector 👍🏻 body’s held up great

[@rcsendandblast1579]

@@RCMANIAC-YT So the landing on the back broke due to the rear skid. Kinda doubt that very much. I seen the landing it caught the corner where it does not flex as much hence the crack. It’s the material man it just cracks. I have a BasherBody from the Netherlands and it is by far way beefier than this one is

[@joseCalderon1976]

Thanks for the video. My Russian Xmaxx body is getting long to the teeth, so I guess I can replace it with this one. I still think the Russian ones can take a little more abuse. I damaged mine mostly from skidding on pavement 🤣👍. The Russian body doesn't split like that, so the Russian one wins.

[@RCMANIAC-YT]

Haha yea!

[@joseCalderon1976]

@@RCMANIAC-YT The only downside from the Russian one is that you have to cut the holes and the ship all the way from Russia

[@RCMANIAC-YT]

Yea thats most of the reason I didn't get that one

@@RCMANIAC-YT Sometimes they are in stock at WFO but not right now. The cutting the stuff is not that hard.

@@RCMANIAC-YT I went with this proline body. I'm going to try it out. It's more flexible than the brute proline body. I'll let you know how it works out.
