great to see Ian and Claire in the vid along with 8s Steve and his boy.

I was in England earlier this month, I really have to say I very much enjoyed my trip. I got to see some rural parts of England and of course got to spend an evening in London being a tourist, exploring Westminster. What a awesome place to visit and everyone was so pleasant. Had a great time...Now I got to plan another trip with the wife and no work.

Both my boy's, 4 & 7 love watching you. Having adopted them from my daughter and being on SSDI we can't afford these things but they sure are fun to watch. Thank you for giving them some fun ad you utterly DESTROY those poor helpless trucks. LOL God bless you are your's.

@ 5:30 beautiful wheelie❤

I honestly to God said a prayer when Kevin got in Max's car. 😂That whole bit was funny, lol.

So glad to see that you didn't fall for the "limited edition" hype and sent it like it should be sent. I am not seeing any limited availability on these "ultimate editions" over here in the US. Typical TRX hype, trying to create a wave.. Also, I don't see anything on the so called ultimate that made it more enjoyable or durable, frankly, I think it's less durable than the base model., which I do love. The X-Maxx is arguably "The GOAT". Anyways, great video! Love your enthusiasm! Always bright and sunny.. at least on camera! LOL, Cheers!!🍻

10:33 Also getting all air out of oil is not important. I actually intentionally don't fill full oil, that gives suspension some distance of almost no damping which helps on small fast bumps

Great vid Kev. Max gets a some stick from subscribers but he definitely adds fun to your channel. Need to see more Stempy boating adventures!

Didnt mention the aluminum motor mount! Looks clean! Favorite color. 😍

Thank you for putting so much effort into your videos, they're really entertaining to watch! You have a very Kevintalboty-style that I'm sure many of us viewers enjoy :)

I have got one finally. Only because of Kev’s videos of all his XMaxx’s. I’m new to RC’s the past 5 months. Got the Hoss then a Maxx then a Sledge another Limited Edition Monster Energy Maxx. Then finally got an XMaxx Ultimate. Love the videos Kev!!! Don’t ever stop!

He's a dru... I mean he had a good inheritance, lay off fbi geez.

They are saying it's limited run, but if they sell enough of these they will continue. I work at a local hobby shop in the US, and we got six of the X-Maxx ultimates in and 6 of the xrt ultimates, and a few people called to have us hold them and pick them up. But we are still sitting on two or three X-Maxx's and probably a good four XRTs. The guys that heard about them and really wanted them snatched them up and naturally we have not seen them back with any broken parts. It's got all the upgrades you would normally end up switching to like the better servo and aluminum steering bell crank and naturally getting different tires because the stock standard X-Maxx tires are not much to speak of. So just adding those few things and not having to do the labor of replacing the servo or the bell crank plus the actual value of these parts does equal about $1,000. And naturally the special bodies for each of these new ones. So that's a value in itself. Without mentioning all the other bits, The main problem is the price. Even though you're getting all that great stuff for another $500 it's really hard to pull the trigger on $1,500. Traxxas people look at the xmaxx as the end all be all truck. So it's a huge deal when you have to spend $1,000 and $400 plus dollars on the batteries and charger. So if you already have an X-Maxx, it's plenty durable and upgrade it as needed and it will get you more familiar with the truck in itself and how it works and comes apart. So current X-Maxx owners are not going for it. But if you're somebody that doesn't have an Xmaxx and has been hesitating to bite the bullet and get one, grab one of these if you can because the extra $500 saves you headache down the road. You'll be able to put this truck through its paces. I recommend the x-maxx over xrt just to be known. Also, I'm an Arrma guy.

I mean the only value I see in it are the bell crank the steel gears and upgraded servo. The aluminum hubs adds useless weight way out on the arm and wasn’t really necessary neither are the aluminum shocks caps. Personally never had issues with the stock diff covers. With the upgraded servo and bell crank the aluminum tie rods are unnecessary as well. The tires are nice but I preferred the unbelted sledgehammers, I could do a standing backflip with the unbelted tires and didn’t have any blowout. The value just isn’t there on an already overpriced albeit incredibly fun truck.

11:40 Thanks for sharing that! I didn't realize that's what it was for. Also, thanks for helping me get back into rc's! I picked up an Xmaxx during Christmas time, and this is some of the most fun I've had with an RC! Thanks for the recommendation!

I have been wanting an x max for a while now. Hopefully, I can grab one of these. Love ❤️ the videos as always, one of my favorite Chanels.

The belted tires are killer for blasting around flat terrain, but be prepared people, because they don’t ballon you won’t have the ability to backflip and correct your attitude during jumps to pull off nice landings. I love the look of the ultimate, but can say it’s better or tougher than the normal version. I already broke two steering rods/toe links that wouldn’t have broken with stock parts. sucks but the aluminum still looks pretty cool.

Thanks Kev. Just took a break at work and you have new content 🔥😎

Traxxas slash 4x4 ultimate owner here. Great level 2 car. Dont ever put in the "speed gear". Get a center diff. Blue check shocks, 45 front 50 weight rear. Tekno's with drivers will always beat you but its a great start.

I love your channel buddy, very awesome that you give different ideas for stock pieces that might break. Keep up the great work buddy 👍

Kev you are the only one who is crazy enough... take the monster truck to this vs that off road ... the hoonigans will love to include a monster truck to the serie🔥🔥🔥 guys help me hereee

You're the only one I've seen that can run the car on two wheels on it's side.👍

That's an awesome truck!😍 Great video. God bless

I like your content it is fun and it's helpful for every one who want to knows about RC

Seeing those tyres survive is quite refreshing to see! Right I need to get my Xmaxx out now😅

That two wheel run was crazy I’ve never seen anybody do that with a rc car before

*_This "Ultimate" edition SOUNDS absolutely horrrrrrrendous!_* _(There is absolutely no smoothness to it!)_ _This is regardless of whether or not he switched out gearing, and regardless of whether or not this is the regular version or the premium "Ultimate Edition" If you are an actual diehard hobby enthusiast, you notice the little/BIG things like the unique sound that each and every RC makes! Arrma, and Traxxas are very similar.. both sound god awful!_ _XRay, Corally, Kyosho, HoBao, and the new WOV Racing vehicles sound suuuuper smoooooth, and are at the top of the list! (Sheer Quality)_ _I really love my XRT, but to be god honest truthful, you are NOT getting what you pay for! They are able to command these prices ONLY because we continue to give in and pay it! They know they have the market cornered as none of the other manufactures that are known for actual quality builds are stepping up and creating these larger scale RC's! Pay attention, and once you notice this, you can never unnotice it 😂._

Ultimate is a super limited run. Once they are done they won’t be coming back. Unlike the other ultimates these are really rare. Never to be done again according to them. For 1499.99 you get 1k worth of upgrades already done. And all the good bits. Only thing they missed is a motor brace.

i just got into this hobby, started out with a redcat volcano, i wish i could afford to get into it like this. I'm stoked for it to arrive, I got a 5 yr old who got a cheap rc from Walmart and he loves it

I got the green one too! Love that thing! They are selling the ultimate body’s so you’ll be able to replace it

Kev! Drill some holes or a cwvity in lower arms and fill them with oobleck (cornflour and water) / non neutonian fluid and seal it in!! I dont know why it hasnt been done but im sure it will help with strengthening for bashing!

LET'S GO 🔥 Awesome rig, Love the XMAXX 🔥

I'm calling for a smash off between Kevin and Mad Max. Each takes the best RC they have and head on coalition them till one brakes. Winner gets the broken RC and respect... who wants to see this?

An aluminum adjustable sevo saver and a perfect pass monster servo completely changed the way my xmaxx handles. If you have some belted tires it puts the truck on rails

do yourself a favor and get a better sevo for much cheaper. The PP upcharge for a repackaged AGF servo in shiny box is hilarious

I had no idea these belted tires slows down the ultimate that much. This explains why mine is going 38 😂 I need to gear up some! I agree with you kev, ITS A TANK AND THERE IS NOTHING BETTER THAN THE X-maxx ultimate. I have the same one but with a hobby wing esc and a green roof skid plate because limited edition awesome green body. Thanks for the video kev!

Got an Axial Ryft, love this thing, just put a castle system in it, now I ordered a full TrealTreatment, Reefs Raw 500 servo, Vitavon Bead Locks and USD Stickies, this thing gonna be a monster ripper man.

The mariachi band @9:40 is just amazing!

I usually dont want metal on my RC cars, but I gotta say it looks pretty darn good on that beast.

Hi Kevin! i know this is a long shot but in Washington state there is an R/C expo at the evergreen state fairgrounds in April (specifically April 13th&14th, that's when i have time off of work for my 25th birthday) id love if you came if you have time, i know you are moving and its a long way to go... ill buy you a hotdog though.

Love you Kevin but there was air in shock, thats why it went up aboit 1/4 " by itself when you compressed it all the way down. Love the videos buddy!

Damn girl that tires is amazing you need to gear that properly for like 140kmh so we can see what she can do

Yup. When I put aluminum hubs and C hubs in my X-Maxx, I would be constantly breaking the upper control arms, lower control arms and the steering link even with little jumps. So I went right back to stock plastic parts and it's all good now. I would never put those aluminum parts back in my X-Maxx again! That's been my experience.

We NEED a KTalbot RC Design, rc car line! Let's Go!!!

Finally a video with Max that didn't end in total carnage! LOL 👍

The Spanish music 😆

Dammit guy! I wanted to see how fast it goes straight out of the box on the stock gearing.

It made me chuckle when you hid the Xmax body when Max arrived at the door.😂

Haha I love the GTA 'wasted' animation and smile every time

I was wondering if you had a chassis it was split into and connected with shocks wouldn't that absorb a lot of front end damage? Basically your chassis would be in two pieces kind of like an expansion joint

Personally I've been running belted tires for years. Everything he said is absolutely true. I prefer the better control but it's definitely not a backflipping machine like it used to be.

Just a question what do you do with all the rc's you break and don't repair?

Hey @KevinTalbotTV have you even thought of developing an RC toolkit with all the needed bits and devices? Sorta like an RC version of an iFixit bundle.
