Rustler was my first hobby grade RC rig. Always have a special place in my heart for Any version of the Rusty. Keep these vids coming!
I love the simple 2 wheel drive rustlers some of the most fun you can have with an RC in my opinion
FINALLY!! CLIPLESS for the 2wd platform!
@chrisfraser1806
Ай бұрын
Finally clippers to our platform? But didn’t they come out with that like with the slash. 2WD
Awesome to meet you yesterday Mark!! My kids and I have been looking forward to watching this vlog having seen “behind the scenes.” Enjoy Colorado and safe travels my friend!
I’m so glad that you were using a 2s 7600 mAh because that’s what I ordered and now I know exactly how fast mine will go and the power output. Thankyou so much!
Well mark. I can’t fault you for another re-release but I wish this was a REAL new traxxas RC video you were making 😓
Traxxas got the Rustler moving now with the BL2 motor!!!Excellent content bro!!!💯
Finally heavy duty parts for the 2wd platform. And the BL-2s system is great, it runs so cold even if gearing up.
Ordered my trx4 k10 super excited! Love the channel!

Thanks man! The K10 is awesome!
Thanks for the great review. Hope this is one of the RCs that's gonna get my friends into the hobby!
Great job on actions shots of the car! I really appreciated those.
Mark santa maria you have inspired me to get back to what I love doing and that is messing around with RC cars and trucks I currently have two 8th scales and two 1/16 scales that you convinced me to get when you got your grom
Ahhh the car that got it all started for me over 20 years ago 😊 this is the revamp this car needed! Looks like a happy medium with some additional beef!
Picked up a rustler vxl 2wd from a pawn shop not long ago... That is a tuff one to hold on to... haven't been able to get full trigger with out spinning out , but damn it is fun...
I like the mounting I have the 4wheel drive VXL Rustler & it has the old system with the clip lock on top that locks it into place. I just got it back up after shearing the lower front lower arm mounting bolt after seeing them I can see why they are very thin.
Thanks mark! On my way to Texas from Canada driving! Traxxas store dude!!
Great video Mark.
Great video keep it up MSM 👍
The BL2s system is slept on. I had one laying around from taking it off my fiesta st brushless and threw it on an old bandit. And it’s FAST. Such a great system.
Don't see the point of buying this one when you can get the vxl straight away with the 272R transmission, because the transmission will break if you upgrade this car... and tqi with gyro..
Definitely getting the stampede
I love the Rustler, it's actually my characters name in every game I play, haha. Wish that clipless system was on my 4x4 VXL, hate the one on mine, pain in the butt. My first Rustler was the 2wd nitro, still have it after 20+ years. Enjoy the trip, nasty weather hitting us here in TX.
Nice ride.👍💪🇺🇸
I just got done upgrading both of my xl5 2wd slashes to the bl2s systems and what an awesome upgrade!
@V8chump
Ай бұрын
But….the brushless 2s systems… are like the exact same speed as brushed. A true brushless ESC has WAY more power on 2s.
Soooo is all of that stuff transferable to the old slash 2wd? (Completely new to the platform)
Alex kowaliuk here, you got a like from me , good to see you grinding.
From the testing I have done between the xl-5 and bl2-s the new brushless version is only like three mph faster i did it with two different two wheel drive slash both with the lcq chassis set up the same
I love you vids man wish I would’ve grown up with a dad like you. I want a sledge so bad I just said it on another one of you vids but man I love your life hopefully I can get there one day. 🤷🏻♂️
Hey mark. Do you think I should get a xrt or a xmaxx. I am having a hard time picking. I just want one that turns the most heads. Love the content bro. Peace
My first hobby grade RC car that I purchased with my own money was a rustler brushed. I had the special Courtney force, pink and blue body. recently last year, I traded it to a friend and they built it for their kids and it’s still going strong
Hey Mark I love your videos keep up the good work I have a older rustler on 3s traxxas setup it's wicked fast love to race u

I'm running stock spur and a 29 tooth pinion gears how can I contact you
The 2wd rustler is a awesome car👌
I have stampede and rustler I’ve been just switching the vxl3s system between the two. So much fun. Like having a rc car that’s on cocain.
Will Traxxas sell just the clipless body mount system for the rustler 2wd, like they do for the slash ???
And I’m definitely a traxxas fan boy too lol I had a bunch about a year ago and they were all stolen out of my house I’ve since moved from there I live in ocean city Maryland now and there’s no hobby shops here like where I lived in West Virginia but yea all my cars and trucks drones were stolen so I’m trying to save now to build again anyway keep it bro your awesome
Think I might look into the bl2s system for my sons old stampede.
What knife do you use to unbox
Omg! A brushless old chassis, traxxas incredible!!!! It only misses the bandit
I’m rebuilding an older vxl rustler. Are the parts off the new version compatible?
@EriMCardenasRC
Ай бұрын
Traxxas does the same stuff they just add clipless body and that’s it its the same rustler from the 90’s basically 🤣🤣
Should feel the motor wires to see if they get hot I hear the new BL2s wires to the motor get hot if run for awhile
whats is this place with this trailler ? rent point ?
I checked, the wheel speed should be the same between the vxl and bl 2s with 2s batteries. Less that 10 rpm difference. The stampede caps out at 40mph because the 76/25 would overload it. Rustler to hit the claimed 45 on the box would probably need 76/26 or higher. Strangely, there’s no recommendation on speed gearing.
It’s funny how Traxxas has mastered the Apple effect. They make slight changes to their cars then make it seem like you’re missing out if you don’t buy the new car. It’s the same thing apple does with the iPhone but you can’t be mad at them for making the plates when peple keep eating up the bs.

The bl2s is really fun in the 2wd cars vs the 4x4 ones. I’m hoping the lack of the bandit means mid motor bandit coming soon??

Is that why it’s so much faster? Might be geared higher from the factory but I remember him looking at the bl2s 4x4 rustler and it was about the same speed as the old XL5 systems
@StevenYDG69

@@V8chump just lighter weight and less drivetrain to run makes it faster I think.
itd be great if they transferred every upgrade from the mudboss to the other 2wds
Back to the mudboss
Keeping the rustler fresh.
Why is this so much faster than the older bl2s rustler you took to the track? The one you brought to the track was like… as fast as their old brushed systems
I'm disappointed in the rear drive shafts. They do look slightly better than before, but I wish they were the same style as the 4wd shafts. Maybe being 2s it's just not necessary.
Dude are you in granby?
I wish they would update the 3s system and include fans with every car. Pretty insane my slash ultimate did have fans already installed
I checked, the wheel speed should be the same between the vxl and bl 2s with 2s batteries. Less that 10 rpm difference.
Why is Traxxas still using an antenna like that? It looks like it's from the 80s/90s.
I wish traxxas would get motivated on nitro’s!!
I guess I need 3rd rustler now 😅
You coming thru Utah mate? I'm out in SLC

The updated caster blocks are the greatest thing to ever happen to the 2wd platforms. Can’t tell you how many of them I break racing on carpet
Wowza a brushless truck that will do 40mph, just checking we are in 2024 lol.

For a 2s system that speed is good which ones go a lot faster on a 2s system? Arrma for sure isn't soem chinese one perhaps but some of those are hard/impossible to control at high speeds soem jsut lying about being 2s i saw those 2s batteries they came with and they had 3 cells so yeah on a 3cell """"2s""""" easy to go way over 40 mph....

Has the Traxxas discontinued the Bandit?
Has Traxxas EVER told the full, not misleading truth on the box about the top speed of an RC car?
@V8chump

I like when the speed they quote requires a pinion size that they don’t even make or won’t even fit! 😅🤣 I like traxxas’ bigger trucks and their crawlers but these cheaper trucks are just made to fool the entry level people with high speed quotes and outdated parts with 1 small tweak to make it “new!”

Because 70mph+ simply isn’t enough power for you to jump a toy car off a box in your back yard. Get real.
When are you going to get back into mini z racing
need to put this head to head with a stock nitro rustler 2.5
Which one is your favorite mark?

Man if traxxas came out with more race oriented kits like a rustler and bandit, I’d buy one in a heart beat, unless racing in a class of their own the RTR wouldn’t even be close to competitive with other brands
The Traxxas b mod won't flip it up. Modifieds died for a reason and we already have a mudboss class. This wont take off like ypu think
Now Traxxas needs to upgrade the servo and the shocks straight out the box. Then they really will be the only car you need to own and not need to constantly upgrade parts.
nice extreme heavy duty kit for a 10 KMH car hahah
Bigfoot BLS-2s is already on Traxxas website. Coming Soon.
Oh and by the way Traxxas coming from a fan of the brand for over 23years you guys really do need to come out we with a few more completely new platforms yes i know easy to say hard to do but you have no choice in my opinion its time invest in the future. Love y'all.
Ok the website it says it gos 40
Rv park in Colorado, does that mean you're headed further North and West? With a truckload of Braaaaaps ?!?

Gotta head back next week… i’ll likely get back on the road the week after
I'm traxxas fan,but that ain't never doing 45+ on that motor
Hope they upgrade the Bandit next, to BL-2S and hex hardware! Not a fan of the long antenna and the ugly hole in the roof on this one
At this rate, they need to upgrade the summit and re-release it! I mean, if they are going to keep coming up with improved versions of existing cars instead of continuing to innovate and make new models...
@mikes062
Ай бұрын
So you want a new model that’s going to get updated again in 2 years and then you can’t find any parts for it at that point? I don’t, I could care less about “new” models, they do plenty of incremental updates, the bl2s means the tired xl5/12t will likely be discontinue at some point too, which looks like a much better system.

Love the content and all but man I’m sick of traxxas saying “new release” when it’s the same platform they’ve worked with for years. They needa call all this “new” stuff revamped in reality
They should be sued for false advertising!
Why dont Traxxas do somthing like put a Maxx slash chassis on a Maxx with a new body and wide offset wheels, like a traxxas sledge only better instead of a boring old rustler with a different motor
another one 😂
Bunch of salty people in here. God forbid Traxxas update an old platform and improve it significantly!
IT MUST BE NICE, MY NEPHEW WOULD LOVE ONE, IS MOTHER AND FATHER LEFT HIM WHEN HE WAS 3 YEARS OLD MY DADDY HAS RAISED HIM SINCE, I GOT HIM A TWO-WHEEL DRIVE SLASH FOR CHRISTMAS WHEN HE WAS FIVE. AND MY DADDY DID NOT UNDERSTAND IF YOU COULD BUY PARTS FOR IT AND FIX IT SO HE THREW IT AWAY.
Hope it's close to the vortex. Traxxas has fallen so far behind
Bash it
subtitles in Portuguese please
Look at the servo horn hahahha what a joke, looks 20yrs old
literally cant see any reason to buy bl- 2s over vxl. rustler should be 4s.
The worlds best Rc car just got even better!!!!!!!
Not impressed. Out of the box a leaking diff..... Smack it whit a rock and see how durable it is
250$ deal deal with an free lipo and charging
Bruh they must be trying to move old parts, I’ll pay 199.99.
“Another traxxas re re” but yet no one complains when chevy ford any other car manufacturer doesn’t change shit for years☠️ yall still driving 97 civics and camarys
Oh boy. Another lousy traxxas re~re. Yay. 😫😴
The only car you need? Maybe if your a child and it’s your first RC car. It’s 2 wheel drive, 2S and has a 1990’s antenna. More like the only car you need to stay away from.
Mud boss will after you change tires n spend another$100,reviews are in,pushes horrible n no grip
Boring !!!! Traxxas is left behind and no good cars , just a boring brand .
Sorry I clicked.
