I review the Traxxas Unlimited Desert Racer (UDR) after 7 months of owning it and discuss my overall thoughts on the vehicle. I also share some advice for both new and future UDR owners.

I was lucky to get the First one sent to Mississippi for sale! Broke a rear trailing arm two days later, replacement parts weren't even available for another Two Weeks. I love it, I still have it, and Traxxas replaced Every broken part I had for almost TWO YEARS! Traxxas customer support is Amazing! Three servo's, two sets of trailing arms, two receivers, wheels.. and other parts.

Driving it scale, treating it as a machine, blowing it off and looking it over the UDR is amazing. When I see vids of jumping concrete stairs, nose diving into concrete and cartwheeling 😬 So so many other bashers out there to do that with. So much easier/cheaper to work out with open layouts, easy access. 100% agree with break it and THEN consider upgrades. Only things I upgraded were the metal bottom full skid plate and tbo unless you are rock crawling " nope" it just adds way to much weight. On the other side of the universe a local guy bought one after driving mine. Like most he nibbled at the aluminum bling which leads to more plastic breaking. Then went insane. Ordered the $1750 Ebay Vitavon aluminum and now he has around $2500 into his build. Problem is its to damn pretty and $$$ to drive wfo the way he does!!

@Awakendabeast13 8 ай бұрын

Wow amazing I could definitely see the addiction to make it more an more superior lol I think I may get one the drive and handling looks amazing. I am somewhat scared of fixing it as I am very new to rc but such a awesome hobby. I’m also going to get into drones ahhhh

I did a layer of gorilla tape on the front end of my udr body I hope that helps a little. I too have broken everything you mentioned I did upgrade the front driveline I personally don’t think it’s that much more strain on the front end lucky the front diff is open so it is somewhat forgiving. I also don’t want to change that driveshaft out on a regular basis.

Thanks for the video,, my main concern if traxxas are going to issue a new version soon, a bit wider, more stable and a bit more durable, Talbot finds it not durable 😄... anyone know if there is a new version soon ! can't afford replacing broken parts.

Hey man love the vids I’m kinda new to RC but I have been looking at the traxxas udr and the arma Mojave. I am having a hard time choosing. I mainly just drive my slash in the backyard and sometimes a little bit of tracks. I am torn between the two and I’m not sure which one to buy.

@LVC_RC Жыл бұрын

Hey! Unless you really want the scale handling and appearance of the UDR, I’d go with the Mojave in your situation. It’ll be less expensive, more durable, and perform significantly better than the UDR when you’re able to run on tracks. 👍

Quick question did you experience any rusting of bolts or screws? I took it out and run over some puddles and the rear axle screws are showing signs of rust!

@LVC_RC 7 ай бұрын

Surface rust on hardware is a common occurrence when RC vehicles are exposed to water. You can avoid surface rust by drying the vehicle off with an air compressor or using products like Cow RC Moo-Slick Silicone Spray. 👍

I get around 25 minutes or so with 5000mAh batteries. Since it sounds like you'll be using the vehicle for casual driving, I'd go with your dream truck! Both are excellent options though, you really can't go wrong.

Is it possible for the udr to run on a single 6s?

@LVC_RC Жыл бұрын

Yes, but it would be challenging to find a single 6S pack that fits in the UDR battery compartment. You would also need a jumper for one of the connectors on the esc.
