Traxxas Raptor R Ultimate Run
This is a series of the build of the Traxxas Raptor R Ultimate. In this video doing a second run. Very cold day out, so I decided not to push it and me🤣 Still testing out the setup. Almost got it where I want it.

Red Ramps
Amazon, but it doesn't look like they are sold on there any more.
Fly Wheels Ramp with Launcher
THE MOST ASKED QUESTION ON THE CHANNEL - "Where do you get the ramps from?
They were purchased from Toys R Us over 8 years ago. They are Ten Eighty Skate Ramps, the Kryptonics Edition. Came with the two ramps and a table top. I don't think you will be able to find it new but it may be available on the secondary markets.

I have one of these and love it. Done tons of work to it. Added the center diff and it makes it way smoother to drive.

@TacticalJackalope Right!
I like how you built the Raptor R. really glad you are using the Fox body to bash around, would hate to see that awesome paint job scratched. Great run.

@sparetimerc Al, you get it! The Fox body, I can replace that all day. A custom body I painted up, no way😆
Nice run!! Looks like a fun truck to just rip!! Especially in short grass or dirt

@Adubbs87 So planted too. Traxxas could have market this better. I don't see many content creators making vids on it.

You’re not lying about that the marketing was terrible. They seem to market the hell out of stuff that isn’t actually ready to be sold yet lol. It’s a shame they’re always trying to just keep up with the Jones’ the old saying goes. If they just took a little extra time and really did the proper R&D there could be some real good trucks coming from them
Gotta love the FOX livery 🦊

@lootbaglarry8.2 Thanks👍
Awesome build Readyset, You officially got me sold on adding a Raptor R to my collection someday it will replace both my Hoss and Slash 4x4 Ultimate. I also plan to get the new Fiesta Rally VXL to loan out to friends and family but currently plan to get a new Limitless V2 this fall. Both the Raptor and Rally will come next year maybe.

@cjchannel12RC A worthy addition to the fleet. I'm glad you enjoyed the vid💪
It's a little expensive, but the body is really cool!😎👍

@REPLAYRC I know Traxxas just reduced it by $30. Hopefully we'll see more of a reduction as they get closer to their licensing goal on the body.
👍🏾💯

Great run. What’s better Mojave 4 S or the ultimate Raptor ?

@whatsintheboxx Thanks man! I'm bias, Mojave 4s😊
If you don't mind, what size pinion did you go with, and do you have a top speed? I have a raptor and I'm thinking about this, or velineon 540xl. I just want a little more out of it than the stock setup. I already went to 16t but it overheats too much.

@furyianman5157 I'm running the stock pinion size. A lot of room to gear up, no heat issues even on 4S. Speed was not impressive which is why I'm going to gear up. I got 45mph off-road.
TRAXXAS RAPTER R in the UK , costs more than the 150 amp version HoBao Hyper VS2 RTR buggy . Would i buy the TRAXXAS ? NOT ON YOUR AUNT NELLIE'S LIFE 🤣🤣🤣 , NOT FOR SOME OVERPRICED PIECE OF PLASTIC 🤣🤣🤣 .

They are $499(On sale currently) and I have one. In fact I may buy another one I like it so much. I live 40 min from their HQ and retail shop in Texas and I like to keep my money local if I can.
