I gotta say, I'm not impressed with the gears. It like pot metal. When you pay $1500 for an RC you expect something as cheap and easy as the gears to be decent quality. Most people can't drop $1500 and right away spend a whole bunch more on upgrading. If that's the case you're better off buying used for half price and upgrading it. IMO

I bought an xmaxx after finding this channel 3.5 years ago after being out of RC probably for 15 years, still puts a smile on my face every time I drive it (and now I have a few more too), thanks Kev!

Kinda wild seeing Mitchell all grown up. Makes me realize just how long I've been watching you. 😅

X-Maxx looks like brilliant fun but I wouldn’t buy one, not new anyway. £1000 for something that strips its gears first run out of the box? No thanks! COME ON TRAXXAS, THAT’S UNACCEPTABLE!

[TheflyingkiwiRC]

Traxxas still taking the p1ss. The XMaxx version 5 and yet it still has monkey metal gears and toy grade servo.

I hate seeing garbage left in nature areas. Anytime my friends and myself go camping, we make a point to pick up any trash we come across. Leave it better than when you arrived.

"Clunge Sponge" 🤣🤣🤣. Brilliant

Nearly 6 years with my X-Maxx 8s. Still my Favourite RC. Close second, my XRT. Brilliant fun.

[rgb_goblin]

how many xmaxxes does a man need?

Kevin: "yes"

[paulgaines]

Anyone who hates Kevin or doesn’t like him I would question if they are a good person or not. How could you not like these kinds of videos?
Cheers Kev!

Those TLR Typhons are tough as hell. I switched mine over to speedruns but I wanna get another and do Kraton arms and bigger wheels for bashing.

[SOMNIOHM]

_Still convinced that the XRT is the better all around RC vehicle! Especially once you start doing modifications!_

[harlyquin]

i dont get it, you didnt seem to be really giving it a hard time and the gears let go pretty quick, did traxxas test this before releasing it to the public? i have a friend with an older xmaxx and he also goes through stock gears and aftermarket gears once every couple of runs, how is this the best rc car?

[johnc]

I just bought one. Should get it in a week. I’ve waited many years now but finally bought it. I can’t wait to get this thing!

[mondrider]

Looove that 360 camera view on the xmaxx

[robbieblack]

Love watching these rc get out threw the ultimate test to see how they hold up

[jbusa]

It's nice to see the original gang together. The content with that group is so much better than the ones with just RCman

[itsamk-ish]

Why would they make a v5 and not upgrade the gears? 🙄

I had that issue with the savage flux, that thing was a beast but the diff gears broke everytime i turned it on. Atleast traxxas has a lot of aftermarket support and you can fix where they slack but dang come on traxxas the xmaxx is a $1, 200 truck it should be a tank out the box

[JkDSnake]

Kev, What if you bind the new X-Maxx and the previous version X-Maxx to the same radio and race yourself at the same time?

[JesseB]

Does the latest version come with 2085x stock, yet? If not, I'd wager that's what's limiting it from doing same-side 2-wheelage. I was able to easily do it once upgrading, even with belted sledgehammer tires.
