Traxxas XRT VS X-MAXX | In Depth

There you have it. A detailed comparison between XRT and X-MAXX!

Still feelin the XMAXX, although I’m strictly a basher. I do however love all the engineering and upgrades on the XRT.

In the tug of war the XRT won due to the more street friendly tires It would be interesting to see the tug of war on a dirt surface.

Bought the xmaxx 1 week ago no regrets now thanks to this video I’ll be spending another 1100 great job guys thanks

I only clicked on this for one reason only and I got

I am more glad I didn’t buy a Sledge instead of a second XMaxx. I may swap out one XMaxx for an XRT but if I were to have only one it would still be the XMaxx.

I wanna get back into the hobby after years and years playing with old stuff with my dad. I want something thats pretty good out if the box but I'm torn between these two. I love the truggy style. I love how it looks and how they perform but I feel I'd get more use out of the xmaxx because I can use it in more places with rougher terrain.

Nice comparison, obvs only run on Hard surfaces which is what the xrt is optimised for (tyres are really pure hard surface/tarmac) be interesting to see them on grass and loose dirt back to back,

I've had my X-Maxx for 5-6 years now, and it's great love for me, but I do believe that I would go for the XRT if I did the purchase today!

[jimwoods]

I have to imagine the Xmaxx will land bigger jumps considering the longer suspension?

[JFlyer]

Nice review! Enjoyed seeing the comparison also. But going head to head the difference is easily explained in the specific categories of each vehicle. One is a truggy, the other a monster truck. Pretty much explains it. Thank for sharing man!

[joseCalderon]

How about the ground clearance at the axles? I know that the Xmaxx has way more ground clearance in the middle of the chassis underneath, but what's about under the axles? Thanks! The Xmaxx Wil still be better for skateparks indeed.

Best comparison video on YouTube! Thank you. You helped me make my decision. XMAXX all the way.

[lukatrbizan]

what about the suspension xmaxx wins that and you should test them ofroad like very rough terrain

[juliandrapela]

You should do a comparison between the Katon 8s and the new XRT. Love the vids man and keep them up!

[williamray]

So what if you put the shorter arms on the XRT? What is involved and how would it affect the performance. The XRT looks cool but also disproportionally wide given the ride height. I think it would be more awesome with the shorter XMAXX arms and Sledgehammer wheels. I am shopping for that really great preowned XRT.

[jordandeanda]

Thanks for the vid! Just an fyi the newer xmaxxs have the upgraded hubs and bearings. I think they started doing it a few months ago before the sledge came out. Mine has them stock. I went to do the bearing and hub upgrade and already had the bigger ones stock and was confused lol

[marcelcanuck]

3/4 throttle on the Xmaxx caused it to spin out losing traction, should try them both at 1/4 throttle

[RazzleDazzle]

I don't like trucks, till now the the rustler was my favorite but I love that xrt. That pricetag though

[Timberbeartrail]

The geometry is different for both of them that will affect the positive or negative competitive side when do the other because they’re outside of their element
