Awesome bash session guys! Mean that you got the locals involved. Hoping Hotrc or someone brings them into NZ soon, it's either this or the SBR 2.0. Stay safe! ❤
That was definitely a awesome run and the LMT takes a lot to get used to, as it handles way different then any other Rc because of its short wheelbase and big tires , but it’s definitely a blast and it is one of the best looking Rc’s out there. It was awesome of you to give those kids a go on your new Monster Truck and I bet something they’ll definitely remember. Plus I wanted to mention how you could recover the bad cell on those batteries you have and it’s very easy and safe to do as I’ve done it many times unfortunately but with 💯% success rate, and all you have to do is charge it like a nimh battery, actually you put in on your charger without the balance leads plugged in and put your charger on the lowest nimh charge rate and start charging it for 1-2mins and you’ll see that dead cell start to take a charge and leave it for 20sec once it does start charging that dead cell and then change it back to its normal lipo charge with only a 1c charge rate and that battery will balance out like it used too , it might end up a point out on that particular cell but over the next few charges it will fully balance itself out like normal again. I know it’s a little scary especially if you haven’t had to do it before but it’s saved many batteries for me and I’m sure millions of others that would’ve ended up throwing away perfectly good batteries without giving this a shot first. I’m sure there’s a vid or two on KZread about how to recover a dead cell on a lipo if you wanted to see how to do it before trying it yourself,and it’s definitely better then just throwing money in the garbage. Keep up the Great Work and Vids !! Stay and Play Safe !!! 👊👍✌️

Best monster jam relocation RTR yet by far. Traxxas nice kids starter. Axial to slow and not tough enough. This one a few minor things but Losi killed it in comparison. This is the one I've been waiting for. Awesome chasis. Solid and reacts more like the real thing with the power to save and push through roll overs. Nice

Where did you get your ramp from in this video ??
Ok y’all, help me out. Got my Gravedigger today. Drove it around the yard to get used to its handling. Flipped over couple times. Wheelies. Etc. No jumps etc. Rear passenger shock pulled from the rod end and lost the perch, isolated and spring. Nothing local so I’ll be waiting on new ones I guess. Are y’all running limit straps? Stock shocks?

Prediction: axle breaks during durability test
It's a beautiful rig. Very scale looking. Only thing I wish it had, was rear steering. That would make it much more realistic. I collected the old Traxxas Monster Jam licensed trucks. Very cool that this truck is so scale!

Paul Clancy that’s true. But if you were to just get a front axle and put in the rear, I would imagine it would be pretty durable.
Not surprised about the Spectrum batteries at all. Spectrum in the 90s was some of the best you could get, it's not any more. The quality of their products is no better than any cheap Chinese product, but you pay a premium for the name. The best batteries I have found are from Zeee in Australia. Great vid guys keep it up.

Yes I think you are right that this is the best looking RC out there. Shame that you smashed its face in! I could tell you were having fun by all the laughing. I'm so tempted by this but got put off a bit by people breaking the axles. Don't know if it's a good idea to jump it on the big ramp without looking into the strengthening upgrades that people are using. It's a long train ride home with a broken truck. Anyway, top stuff guys!
