It really is the dumbest thing I've ever seen. Its just a brushed slash 4x4.
If you spent $20 on your slash 4x4 for the titan 12t you have the exact same thing really
Seriously, when is Traxxas going to come out with something that's worth buying??

This is the fu***** gheyest thing I have ever seen.. What a joke! The truth of the matter is they will rope in some newb somewhere... What a J**off gimmick..

The funniest part is on the product page "Extreme Terrain 4x4 Trail Rig"

In4mation 08-09-2013 01:38 PM

I've never had one of the "slash" style chassis.

Upbasher 08-09-2013 01:52 PM

They can't be serious in calling this a trail rig....this thing would obviously do HORRIBLY on the trails. I mean a 12t motor is WAY too fast for any sort of "trail" driving. Its going to over heat so fast......

Gosh a lot of hate here! I know I know, good ol' Traxxas making ANOTHER chassis sharer but I personally like the "Slash" chassis and although I highly doubt this truck, even with whatever mods people figure out to do to it, will ever out trail/crawl my Wraith, it does seem pretty neat. And it would be a much better basher than the Wraith for sure.

I like it.

this is nothing go look at the traxxas forum. Funny when I type in "traxxas" it thinks I'm typing trash but I guess I am. ;)

lol

jrowles91 08-09-2013 03:38 PM

I think it'll be a great beginner truck.

fr8cture 08-09-2013 04:44 PM

Lol, I got an infraction on the traxxas forum for this.

A few peoples long lasting titans don't change the fact that a ton of people had problems with them and pretty much every truck that has one they get thrown out.

They are brusgmhed motors, they wear out...

fr8cture 08-09-2013 04:52 PM

I runa brushed motor in my Trail finder 2 and they don't wear out after a few runs.

jrowles91 08-09-2013 05:01 PM

There is also a big difference in a 12t "race" motor and a crawler motor. Of course your motor will last longer, but so would a 12t if your same truck with the same gearing. But I agree with you. Frankly, they don't compete with the competition for brushed motor reliability.
