You're 100% correct. Try to backflip off a tree, and it just runs straight up 6 feet, turns and somehow flattens out in the air to land on its wheels. Anyone who sees this, keep in mind it has a long wheelbase and smaller tires, not a stunt machine, but the rear brake is a blast.

I just can’t get past the G.I. Joes with guns. I mean, really?!? Also, it’s too expensive. I’d buy a Mojave (or any other 6s Arrma) every day and twice on Sunday instead of dropping so much more on this one. Thanks for a great video, and for punishing the heck out of it.

I've only owned 2S and 3S Traxxas cars until now, but I've wanted to get something 6S that's big and fast and scale and stable and tough with big tires. Unfortunately, I don't think Traxxas has anything that checks all of those boxes. X-Maxx is missing the stability, Sledge is missing the scale look, etc. The Fireteam seems to have it all, and I LOVE the way it looks!

It's down to the new design of the body and how the body is connected to the chassis. It's not just a hollow body. It's made up of triangulated structures underneath, making it more flexible and durable.

Have you tried driving some of the arrma's with the chassis bent until it causes a problem? If be curious after they're bent a bit how long till it creates a problem with driveline etc? Seems silly but I wonder if maybe they bend a bit till there is pressure on the braces and then stop, and if so whether that bend would become a bigger issue. Great videos!!

Pretty cool. I still have a bunch of vintage RC cars from back in the day. I have 3 Associated RC10s (one in the truck configuration). From Tamiya, I have a Hornet, Bruiser, Monster Beetle, Porsche 959 and Lunch Box. I also have a Marui Hunter and Mugen Bulldog. I had many other cars throughout my old RC car enthusiast history because I used to buy them, fix them up and sell them as a kid. The Toyota Bruiser is probably the most unique of my collection since it was so expensive back in the day. I think it cost over $300 and the batter was like another $100 and it required a 4-channel controller. It still runs too... took it out a few years ago. As a kid, I used to tow myself around the neighborhood on my skateboard with it :)
