[traxxasepicdude]

All it is is a nitro rustler with a pro . 15 engine

[thefreakin77]

[Mr73tank]

i think that you guys should do a unboxing video on a traxxas jato 3.3 because their isnt rlly good videos on it.

[TheMostvalubleGamer]

[TheTwitch96]

@jason1786 this car has a weaker engine then the rustler and its basicaly a cheaper version it has alot of cheap parts compare ot the rustler

[RiiceBoyz27]

[slylumpkin]

@RiiceBoyz27 slayer

[theprogamer17]

Hey Brandon, do you still currently work at Hobby Town in Germantown?



[TraxxasGuy97]

how would who upgrade to 2.5 just put a whole new motor in?

[aaronp97a]

how much was this and i have an electric rustler vxl, i was wondering if you would suggest this. i have been in the hobby for about a week. or if i would be better off with electric.

[funny10188]

how do I know if the break-in is complete for this truck??

Please respond

thx

[TheDrewby22]

germantown maryland?

[620ILoveSoccer620]

Is it an easy first nitro kit?

[1485polo]

Where did u get that

[rcnightmare]

@1485polo our local hobbytown

[TheBurninator666]

Like this if you had the original TRX .15 Nitro Sport :)

[awsometutarials2]

this sounds like a stupid question but im new to rc this will be my first car and i live in ohio will this be safe in the snow

[rcnightmare]

@awsometutarials2 I wouldn't get a nitro...I would look at electric/waterproof

[lawnmowerdude]

First videos of yours that I've seen. Really like it, subscribed.

I'm all into electrics and I use to be into nitros, had T-Maxxs and Savages and they were fun but I bought my first hobby grade electric and it was all over for my nitros. That being said I still would like at least one nitro to putt around with once and a while and this Nitro sport looks like it would fit the ticket.

Also do you plan on reviewing the XO-1?

[TheDeerhuntingboy101]

hey guys i really need your help what is better for beginers the traxxas nitro sport or the traxxas nitro rustler. keep in mind that the rustler has 2.4ghz and more power and more upgradable parts available etc.PLEASE HELP. thanks

[TheMacbooksRock15]

@rcnightmare I am looking to go back in to nitro... I had a Traxxas S-MAXX 3.3 before, and now I have the HPI Blitz and HATE it because it won't work and HPI's customer service sucks... So would this be an easy nitro to get into? Is it hard to keep this one tuned? How hard it it to tune it when it needs to be tuned? Just kind of give me some basic info...

[mikeheuss]

today arives mine in toabaja puertorico from tower hobbies i hope have a lot of fun.......

[mrwolfhound80]

Okay rcnightmare i got a question how much is the basic price for nitro sport and where do you think i can get one.(except ebay and craigs list)

[airplan10]

Do yall even use ur cars

[ametistallc]

this car sucks

[hohoheehee123]

How much if u want to upgrade to 3.3??

[klx125jump]

Can somebody please tell me if this can wheelie easily like u know, does it have that nice jumpy power?

[rcnightmare]

@razorRCracing Not yet

[calebbarnes1997]

is this car 2 or 4 wheel drive

[rcnightmare]

@calebbarnes1997 2wd

[Ttyme1616]

how do you turn it off

[rcnightmare]

@Ttyme1616 Pinch fuel line.

[son8god8damn]

and nitro rc isnt easy to maintain

[rcnightmare]

@son8god8damn Compared to electric no. Compare this to a 4wd nitro monster truck, yes.

[L3G3ND0PRODUCTIONS]

is it waterproof? and if not how can you make it water proof

[son8god8damn]

@L3G3ND0PRODUCTIONS you cant make a nitro waterproof

[rcnightmare]

@L3G3ND0PRODUCTIONS No. You can bag up the Receiver and throw waterproof servos on there but the motor's gotta breathe and engine blocks don't like to be "flash cooled" by large amounts of water so do so at your own risk!

[ethanissocool]

@rcnightmare Can I throw the baloon on there and be safe in the snow?

[traxxas5308]

wow im impressed no traxxas 2.4 ghz

[TheMagicmole77]

1:16 water proof the speed controller.... fail lol

[rcnightmare]

@TheMagicmole77 whoops meant the receiver, can you tell I usually drive my electrics?

[cocooreo100]

@rcnightmare yes

[Unusedcheetah29]

@TheMagicmole77 i noticed that too

[laxbomb124]

Keep up the good vids, i enjoy watching them very much

[rcnightmare]

@laxbomb124 thanks a lot for the kind words!

[WasDannyHere305]

i finally got a summit

[dlblank]

Germantown what state?

[rcnightmare]

@dlblank WI

[tongaandtete]

I had one of those nitro sports a long tme ago....Those things just keeps going and going!! its a lower leverl than the rustler, motor wise, but uses the same parts. Good entry lever car..... motor is easy to break in and will run like a champ!.

[rcflightschool]

@tongaandtete great first nitro!



[skullsaredead43]

That has the same boddy as the rustler ... and I like nitro bc it so much like a real car you have to care for it get gas with electric it doesnt have that much

[rcflightschool]

@skullsaredead43 all r/cs need to be maintained but yes nitro much more so

[BadBoySim1]

please could u do the stamped vxl 2wd i cant fined any reviews on it :(

[ysr50fan]

Oh ya I wanted to ask you guys have the traxxas s-maxx not that I care I just love electric but just wondering

[ysr50fan]

Don't buy nitro buy electric way way better ;) good job guys

[calpal112793]

waterproof the speed controler????



[rcflightschool]

@calpal112793 probably meant receiver. 

[ATVRiders2O11]

Would you reccomend the traxxas nitro sport or the team associated gt2? Thanks.

[MrBenzter11]

do electric traxxas trucks (specificly the stampede 4x4 vxl) come with different pinions and spurs to put on it? Thanks.

[rcflightschool]

@MrBenzter11 Yes they do. The stampede 4x4, however, would only be gear lower than stock. 11/54t is stock. runs at 150F on a 3s

[TeamTriplettRCRacing]

ultimate hobbies sells the nitro rustler for 299.99

[TeamTriplettRCRacing]

ultimate hobbies sells the rustler for 299.99 

[youngkid371]

if you ever desid to sell it plz plz plz plz plz plz tell me

[ethanissocool]

I FUCKING LOVE YOU. I have been looking for a good review of this all day its so wierd you would post this!

[ysr50fan]

Why does everybody wants you guys to unbox the savage flux??????? It's not even that cool

[traxxasblitz]

The rustler doesn't have the receiver cover but the nitro sport has always had the the receiver cover I have the 1st gen

[TheMacbooksRock15]

@rcnightmare How is the tuning on these engines? I have a S MAXX 3.3 and it comes out of tune so quickly and I hate messing with it, Is the .15 easy to tune and easy to access all of the tuning components?

[rcflightschool]

@TheMacbooksRock15 Generally this .15 is pretty stable on the tune. 3.3's can be but the break-in and maintenance have to be dead on. Check for carbs leaks too.

[TheMacbooksRock15]

@rcflightschool My 3.3 is a great engine, but I really am not that patient with fixing things on my own. I am really thinking about going electric, but for some reason the Sport keeps popping back into my mind. I love the sound and smell of nitro (when it works.) For somebody who is not the most patient ever, would you suggest giving the Sport a try or just going electric (If I go electric I will get the HPI Blitz.)

[3brosRCSam]

oh yes and a question: are you going to have anymore super awesome running vids up soon?

[rcflightschool]

@3brosRCSam you bet!

[3brosRCSam]

very nice unboxing vid :) i dont know why people dont like the plastic U-joints i have a bandit VXL i have owned it for about a year now and i am replacing the stub axles only now, not because i NEED to, but because they look like they are going to break (in fact i think they still have a month in them) and i get those stub axles at the extremely high cost of $3 so on this car with relitively little power (compared to most other cars) the plastic drive shafts should be around for a long time.

[rcflightschool]

@3brosRCSam you nailed it.

[mustangman456]

can you the 4x4 slash 1/16 brushless unboxing and review because i plan on getting one and i want your opionion

[rcflightschool]

@mustangman456 we will be cutting back on the 1.16 scales but it might come around. My opinion would be to get the 1.10 scale but that's not much of a review =]

[jmloudon97]

would you reccomend this, the nitro rustler, or the jato 3.3?

[rcflightschool]

@jmloudon97 nitro rustler if you're looking for speed. The jato 2.5 if you're looking for more speed. The jato 3.3 is...too much engine for RWD and RWBraking.

[Krazyguy88]

Can u do a unboxing on the traxxas bandit vxl brushless

[MegaRallycar]

Nice im looking to get into nitro, can you guys do some more nitros like from different companys

[BeastOnCallOfDuty]

Classic rc lol looks nice but do people still run nitro lmao

[MXRac3r545]

@BeastOnCallOfDuty I do ill run my Savy any day

[rcflightschool]

@BeastOnCallOfDuty Yeah some people are die hard fans. Can't beat the noise/smell/etc...for every nitro I have 10 electrics myself...been there done that.

[matthewdiscovery1]

I think a gt2 would be better.

[richardarichter123]

traxxas nitro good stuff got one my self

[scubasteve728]

i have thisone too but its reallyyyyy old hahaa

[JohnReviewer112]
