NEW Traxxas Raptor-R 4x4 Scale Basher RC Truck

The string of crawler releases has been broken and Traxxas has unleashed the exciting Raptor-R 4x4 truck! This new brushless truck is based on the Slash 4x4, but has a big change to it and they’ve added on some parts that will improve durability. In this video Greg unboxes the new Raptor-R to show you what you get in the box. You’ll get a quick peek at some of it’s features and then a performance tease as he takes it for a Speed Test!

    I like that the speed pinion is included and an honest speed claim 👍The long wheelbase must be helping at high speed, short course trucks usually have issues blowing over at 50+ mph

    Yup, been there with SC, blow-overs, but there wasn’t an indication of that here. Just had to take it easy on start-up with the soft suspension. I was honestly just happy with the 3S stock gearing speed.

    My favorite musing is all the scale guys getting into this and putting all the scale accessories onto the body that are light duty and meant for TRX4s that go 13 mph tops. I just picture this thing pulling a scale OffRoad trailer doing 60mph and that trailer flying all over the place with the scale 1:10 rooftop tent and scale trail jacks with traction boards and Jerry cans just flying all over the place. LOL

    motor and gears still on rear axles. This is shit as it is similiar to Slash 4x4 and will eat all bearings on driveshaft and clutch over and over after some time of use. This will cause eating receiving gear as well. Traxxas does this to buy this plastic gear over and over. This is a faulty construction.
