Looks better with the sledgehammer tires. Better air control with the taller tires too.

[@yuding237]

man u guys seriously have the best and most in depth xrt reviews rn man, this channel definitely has potential, u never seem to fail to bring entertaining content, like none of the other channels have even properly skatepark bashed a xrt properly , let alone put sledgehammer tires on it and did a double backflip, really awesome content, and not surprized the spur and pinion shattered, this was honsetly impressive that after all that abuse only the gears stripped and nothing else broke, traxxas gears are not know to be durable and honestly this is pretty tough, sledgehammers definitely make it look like an enlarged sledge even more lol, just get an enlarged sledge body and u got a big brother lol

[@RickyD1968]

Those wheels and tires looks Awesome on the XRT !!!!

[@killx123]

Did you have to switch go down or up a tooth Pinion for those sledge hammers?

[@chrisryder4709]

Ten minutes into my first run with sledgehammer tires one of them exspoded , darn things are good tires but no good for 8s I'm thinking cool video !

[@Doug_Morgan]

Now that they came out with the Gravix belted I am thinking of buying some for my Xmaxx wide. I want to see if they will improve the handling when racing around chasing Truggys.

[@markbutler2741]

Traxxas tough baby!

[@jmginthent651]

I bet the skaters are thrilled

[@truerc]

And they're chrome too👍Love it

[@alexidelossantos8203]

Loose pinion, probably. Same (minor) issue with the Xmaxx.

[@jjhardie449]

pinion just came loose dude!

[@FilipRadelic]

This is exactly what I've been waiting to see, seems to be perfect + it looks like a big brother of my 4x4 Rustler 😍 Do they rub against the body when suspension gets compressed while turning? Btw there are now Sledgehammer tires on XRT rims, part number 7876, a bit cheaper than these old ones too!

[@lazermncrft5811]

its looks like the sledge Lmao

[@FilipRadelic]

@@lazermncrft5811 nah, Sledge looks nothing like a Traxxas.

[@jjhardie449]

@@FilipRadelic uh Sledge is Traxxas bro! And i agree it looks like a giant Sledge with an Xmaxx attitude lol. BTW I have an XRT.

[@FilipRadelic]

@@jjhardie449 nah, Sledge just looks out of place, especially now that this thing is out. Wish they made an "RT" based on Maxx instead of the Sledge.

[@jjhardie449]

@@FilipRadelic OK OK I see what ya mean now my friend and I agree with ya after taking in yer view on the Sledge. I guess every manufacturer has to have that one car that just looks weird lol. And I could'nt agree more about the Maxx "RT" would be epic.

[@happyhappyjoyjoy6563]

did the pinion just fall off? either way the sintered metal gears are trash and easy fix, rrp pinion and hot racing spur problem solved

[@kturbo504]

Miss you videos bud! Hope all is well!

[@jedmor7781]

Great Vid ! Have a VXL Rustler but definitely want this XRT next

[@Splashdiamonds407]

That is crazy brother 😳 that xrt is nice 👌

[@johnreavis5024]

How long can you safely and battery life can you run the XRT?

[@TheFatAssCat]

Classic Xmaxx problems lol. I'm surprised they didn't do any revisions with the spur/pinion honestly. But good video!

[@RainyCobra]

They technically did. The gear case has a bearing in the top that's supposed to keep the pinion on the shaft if it comes loose

[@TheFatAssCat]

@@RainyCobra yeah its an interesting fix. My pinion/spur exploded regardless of that bearing but who knows it must help somewhat

[@seancollins5162]

That was the pinion the erevo.2.0 did the samething.

[@GosGosraider]

Yo, nice RC XRT, thank you for the feedback

[@heyby8764]

just like its bro loose pinon haha. got to get the arrma d shaped one funny but true.

[@andyb9994]

Cool run at the skate park.....my daughter and I unboxed our XRT that I picked up today.... tomorrow we will run it, can't wait!!! Great vid👍

[@SoldierBoy3064]

those bowls are smooth as hell ima order one and put badlands on there and see

[@joshuaa.5523]

What thickness of shock oil is this? Seems like it needs to be thicker if it's stock. It might chassis slap less hard with thicker oil.

[@jchymes]

Just bought a blue one off you today! Which skatepark is this at?

[@midwestern_rc]

Y’all are gonna be the reason these tires are out of stock. I gotta get a set now for mine! 😂😂🤝🤝 (hey by the way what mic are y’all usin?)

[@rogerlid2118]

That thing is epic!!

[@HL-OOI]

I like to bash RC cars on skatepark..use to bash with a Tekno.. 😂 truggy is much harder to do a backflip but easier to control in the air..

[@ExelArts]

It looks better with those bigger wheels

[@neilpeffers4348]

Looks good with those tires on it

[@scooterduren]

That skatepark looks nice! Where is it located?

[@thercog]

Great video!

[@filipinomixer]

Nice double back flips

[@GNX157]

Do they make rubber bump stops for inside the shocks?

[@justincase948]

It’s not grip it’s traction 👍👍👊🏻👊🏻 2:39

[@jamiee1578]

Very nice vid! What batteries you using?

[@hawaiianstylen]

3:37 you had one job!! Epic fail

[@Usnveteranstacker]

3:38 you’re paying your camera man to much 😂

[@codyhouseholder5888]

Did same with stock pinion smoked it

[@donniemarks94]

Beautiful truck

[@soldierforchrist4781]

Did you have it on stock gearing

[@aspec404]

The bigger tires changes the gear ratio so might want to keep an eye on that.

[@jerryglennie5375]

So upgrade your spur and pinion to strengthen your drivetrain and you should simply increase your speed while lowering acceleration slightly

[@07liftedAV]

I'd love to see a sxs comparison with an X-maxx

[@karimunhobbyrc363]

hooby time

[@richbernoulli1875]

What gearing was used with the sledgehammers?

[@donaldbowlin7944]

???

[@axialpad99]

@@donaldbowlin7944 He's asking what gearing he's using in the truck

[@nickriggsrc81]

Congrats first person Ive seen that actually bashes it!!! But traxxas monkey metal gears come on think they would've learn by now!!!!!!!!!!!

[@BreinGames]

Them double back flips were super close! You should do a video with the xmaxx tires on and then the XRT tires. Do the same exact jumps and turns. Do like a split screen. Show which tires are best ultimately.

[@drivenrc]

Why do I feel like Arrma is about to take something from Traxxas playbook and make a 5th scale care with a plastic chassis

[@quadkrazykeith]

Never

[@truerc]

Indeed. Arrma may never make a 5th scale.

[@quadkrazykeith]

@@truerc they have 1/5 scales but I doubt they will build one on a plastic chassis.

[@truerc]

@@quadkrazykeith They actually don't. They have rcs labeled as 1/5 but it's not accurate.

[@quadkrazykeith]

@@truerc so your saying my 8s Kraton, 8s Outcast are not 1/5 scale? How bout my Hpi Baja’s what scale are they? And my Rampage what scale is that?

[@paultro8457]

Where is that skate park?

[@markmccloskey119]

Can you do a sledge video??

[@nickkrug8157]

YA KNOW NONE OF THE FACTORY DESIGNED THEM TO JUMP THAT MUCH !!!

[@rcsmith5909]

WTH bro show the damage that’s how we prevent it !. Got the black one today

[@charlesford485]

how did you get the black one? I want one.

[@kazperfriispetersen7391]

Can I get some one to Denmark?

[@cristiancastrillon3035]

👏🇺🇸⭐👍🤜🤛👍🦍GRATE !

[@db5112]

Video is good but look Tailbot 👍

[@Photonees]

And then the video ends and doesnt show the broken parts... like how

[@hawkes123456]

What actually broke

[@charlieporter1331]

Hall Kimberly Martinez Kevin Walker Brian

[@jeffreyvanderpluijm9502]

The only thing they had to fix… the gears…

[@EZ4U2Say11]

It’s electric use smooth throttle even nitro guys are annoying with throttle blips

[@07liftedAV]

I think it's a mentality they have, 2 strokers do it too

[@GNX157]

I noticed the constant throttle blipping in a lot of reviews. Why do they do it? Just no co ordination?

[@acewilliams351]

🙄 Practice landing on the downslopes bro

[@KyleRattay]

What a waste

[@brandonnashasa86]

Smith Jeffrey White Michael Martin Donna

[@Pop-xq2jl]

Give me exb kraton 8s with a 12s system all day over this plastic car

[@urineanimal]

Arrma wins. They can smash into the ground way harder from way higher and not get crippled. And you pay less :)

[@___Aaron___]

Lmfao. Smash a metal chassis hard enough it bends. The smaller armmas with the plastic chassis are good. Not the outcast.. they bend to dam easy

[@kenwoodmiller1236]

I really want one all of my cars are arrma but this captures my eye!!! I research and all I keep finding it’s that gears ruin constantly spur gears and diffs!! Don’t wanna pay $1000 dollars and can’t drive it

[@kj3686]

Why break it deliberately? Next you'll be saying "send it" and "launching to the moon". I'd be more impressed if you nailed the jumps rather than belly flopping onto edges. To each their own. Just seems a waste to me.

[@1ubby]

So lbgt sounding
