savagex466 The Outcast and notorious originally were basically the same truck just with different bodies. Then the outcast EXB RTR came out and it included a bunch of upgrade parts such as 7075 Towers a 7075 chassis etc. The RTR outcast was discontinued at that time. Currently you can get the RTR notorious or the RTR outcast EXB. If I had to put a label on this truck I would probably call it an outcast EXB because it has the Outcast body and EXP differentials but the vast majority of the truck beyond that is all upgrades so it would be fair to call it either one I think. Clear as mud? :-)

As a scratch build minus electronics You're probably looking at around $1,500. That being said this was more of a passion project than what I would consider a practical basher build. You can get most if not all of the durability that this truck has for probably half. If you start with an EXP brand new, stick with the stock electronics and sell off the stock parts as new when you upgrade a This can be done at least reasonably economically.

I explain it at the end of the video. The first tower actually broke right at the brace. It didn't break where I drilled through it but it did break right at the edge of the brace. The brace doesn't allow the carbon fiber to flex enough and it failed. I replaced it with a new tower for the second part of the video and had no issues after that.

Hey man, Great Video. Im doing a similar build. Can you tell me what motor mount this is or do you have the part number of it? Thanks 🙏

@DoRC

Жыл бұрын

Motor Mount is stock. The center diff mount is a generic aluminum one I got off of Amazon. I wouldn't recommend it though as it didn't really fit well. Hot racing makes one that I've used before though and it's good.

Is their a big difference between aluminum bulkheads opposed to plastic? Specifically in performance.

@DoRC

Жыл бұрын

They're not going to make the car any faster or more powerful but there are a lot stronger. This means that it's less likely you'll break the ears off if the shock tower takes a hard hit and also less likely that you'll strip years because the aluminum won't flex as much as plastic will which will keep the gears in more consistent relation with each other.

Obviously if you push anything far enough you can break it but I don't really think that represents a realistic scenario. MT-10 maybe but Savage, unless you've put a lot of upgrades into it, no way. I've had plenty of savages over the years and they just are not up to the level of durability of even a stock modern basher. They are still fun though :-) thanks for watching!

That's tough to quantify. It was a lot of fun and the resulting vehicle is a work of art but it was also extremely expensive and I think you could get the vast majority of the durability for a lot less money. You also kind of end up chasing your tail with this sort of thing because the more you upgrade it the heavier it gets which tends to find the next weak point in the chain. Ultimately I don't regret doing it but I probably wouldn't recommend it to somebody else.

Great build, but you could also just have bought a Maxx. We had sent ours through the same amount of damage as in this video multiple times and so far nothing has broken yet 👍

I have a maxx and It's my daily basher. I think I've owned four of them since they came out. I agree they are incredibly durable. It's the car I grab when I want to just smash something up and feel confident that it won't be broken when I get done. That wasn't really the point of this video though The point was to build something extreme from the ground up that was almost fully upgrades. I don't think just showing a picture of my nearly stock max and then taking it out back and bashing it would make for a very compelling story :-)
