I got the Sledge and the XRT. This car is my favorite out the box. Didn’t have to do anything to but put a battery in it and go. Both Sledge and XRT needed work right out of the box and was breaking stuff. Been running the ultimate for 4 days hard with not a single issue 😎

@buysncharge 7 ай бұрын

Your XRT steering servo didn't break right away?

@alexv5581 6 ай бұрын

I am tired of everyone bitching that their shit breaks when it's obviously abused. Well no shit it will break. Freaking sledge feels like a tank compared to the other non brand crap I have ridden before. Very impressed with its build quality and ruggedness.

@@alexv5581well that would be because you’re comparing it to non hobbygrade rc cars….. you literally answered your own question there. I’m not sure why you’re getting so upset at the truth, it’s no secret that traxxas has released many models in the past that were unready and needed aluminum hopups for reliability. They also have a history of garbage electronics, and the old slashes had driveshaft issues as well. This is coming from someone in the hobby over 15 years with plenty of experience, and I don’t abuse my stuff in the slightest. My team corally spark and even hpi vorza are stronger than pretty much every traxxas I’ve ever owned. The rustler is the one exception, slash ultimate isn’t bad either. For sledge prices I can get a Kraton 6s exb rtr, and that’s an easy choice in my opinion lol.

The legend of the Rustler continues. The versatility of the Rustler platform is what makes it so great. Only hop ups this thing will eventually need is a Hobby Wing ESC and some Proline Trenchers.

Great video Mark, I'm planning on buying one in Green but first i plan to sell my HCG Slash 4x4 VXL to make room for the new truck. With this truck i plan to run it out of the box i only plan to get a ESC fan for it, install a steel spur gear and maybe put an XT90 connector on the esc so i can run my aftermarket 2 and 3s batteries after that i plan to run it stock for as long as i can.

Looks like a sick car, but that price tag is insane. That is almost closing in on the 6s price range and a good bit more expensive than most 4s rigs. They could have at least cooled the motor and esc with that extra money...

If it’s anything like the Slash 4x4 Ultimate that extra money upfront will save you way more in the future. I have a Slash Ultimate and it’s indestructible. I also have a Rustler 4x4 VXL which breaks way more often.

@unkulwilly 7 ай бұрын

growing up in the early 90s i was a huge Associated fan. i felt every RC should have an aluminum chassis. i have fallen in love with the Sledge. wish Traxxas would make more models using that chassis design. a shorter wheelbase, short arm 1/8 buggy! and a Sledge wheelbase short arm 1/8 SC truck! call it the Super Slash or Slayer 2.0.

I'd say the Rustler BL2S with a 3S system of choice, beats this ultimate version in value... The E heavy duty kit beats the Ultimate in durability and reliability for bashing and general use Additionally, even for this ultimate version they didn't upgrade the nº1 gripes with the rustler which is how easy they overheat in 3s (they don't include esc fan) and the plastic driveshafts (no extreme heavy duty ones or CVD ones)... Also just because traxxas prices their hop ups so insanely high individually doesn't mean you are really getting a big deal out of this pack, they are clearly not selling this at a loss.
