Almost a bit strange that the team associated 1/10 truck is almost indestructible when their 1/8 seems to break for no reason 🤔
I need to try the mt10
I hate to be that guy, but after owning both mt10 and the mt8, the mt10 isn't what's its cracked up to be.
It has a dreaded secret nobody speaks of. The motor mount is made of cheese. It shifts and bends very easily. This causing premature failure on the spur gear.
I and many people can't get a single pack through after the car ages 1-2 year.
My mt8 on the hand, 2 years strong after a list of parts replaced to make it reliable.
😂
@@captaincouldvercis there no aftermarket upgrade for it?
@@cd-pu5uv
There is no upgrade motor mount option at this time.
Right now the trick is to not put too big of motor, not over gear it (the larger pinion puts the mount in a more weakened position) and put a touch of locktite on the facing surfaces of the mount plates.
Even then, with the right nose landing, it will bend, shift and if not caught in time, destroy the spur.
always awesome seeing the retro guys. We have someone up here named Rick Shannon that runs a Top Force Evo in 4wd buggy. Dudes fast too
I’m a Traxxas guy, love my maxx v2 and XRT but the MT8 and MT10 look like damn good fun for the money! Definitely want to get one of them in the near future
Definitely get the MT 10. The MT 8 seems to break a lot.
I have both of these trucks and an MT10 and the MT10 is the best of all 3
I am 55years old and retired from the United States military I no longer support team associated the the company the drivers the whole organization are a bunch of snooty folks in life we can have fun it's not a competition all the time however thank you mark Santa Maria for bring us excellent video content at all levels and exciting new videos. Much love and respect always
Man this takes me back. I had an RC10GT with an OS .12 about...christ, 30 years ago! Thing was a blast, but it did break pretty much every time I drove it. Was surprised here lol
Dude is bragging about how that truck "looks beefier than the Maxx" and that the "Widemaxx looked fragile" yet he had NOTHING to say when the Maxx smacked the ceiling and didn't break. Interesting 🤔
looks can be deceiving
Yeah, I did a video about this. Gotta put the Kaiju arms on it.
I really need to come visit this track someday soon bro. It looks like a blast!! I’ll have to practice more on our local track first so I’m not just getting in the way of everyone there lol
MT8 is very good, but it is great after you change the arms for the Kaiju ones. The tires balloon too much for my taste, but some 4s backflips work out great.
RPM has also started making arms
You should give the mt12 a try. Completely different beast but a ton of fun.
It reminds me of my proline mt 4x4 broken on the first jump😂 but this has the exception of parts support.
I love how that MT8 performed in the parking lot. I love the cars that are wheelie monsters. 😂 But wow, that wasn’t even a hard landing and broke a rear arm. I’ve heard that about the MT8, that it breaks easily. Whereas the MT10 seems nearly indestructible. Still an awesome video and a cool RC. Oh I didn’t have to be sold on the Maxx 😂 I’ve always loved traxxas RC products. Great video, Mark 🤘🏼
Mark rpm makes beefier arms for front and back and another thing is to swap out the adjustable upper arms with ones from the redcat kaiju I havent had this problem since I've switched 😊
I swapped the arms on mine to the RPM, didn't know about the Redcat. I'll have to check that out, thanks!
RPM makes good stuff for sure
@@afguy0127 yes you're welcome actually the old kaiju body even fits the mt 8 with same placement of the holes on body so make sure you get ones from the old kaiju 😁
I've got a new rustler 4x4 bls-2 and I love it.... way better than the gen 1's with the brushed motor.... it's actually my truck that I practice with at the skate-park as I'm new to the hobby and trying to teach myself how to correct them in the air. Tomorrow I'm going to my local rc park to meet up with the crew to race and crawl. I've got a brand new monster energy edition maxx I will be running for the first time 2morrow!! So stoked💯
Enjoy watching your vids brother keep up the good work 💪
Small historical correction MSM...Masami won with the B3 in 1999 not 1997. Brian Kinwald (RIP) won with a TLR in 1997 (under the Losi name)
Blaming that one on Barry... he gave me that info... hahaha thanks!
@@MarkSantaMaria anytime. I remember that 1997 championship because it capped off an undefeated season for him in 2wd buggy and led to the first Losi signature car in 1998 (XX-CR Kinwald edition I believe)
RPM makes arms for it
Yikes, that was a good landing. There is no excuse for it breaking. -- Meanwhile you were doing hard landing after hard landing ... and even hit a steel roof beam hard ... and the Maxx was fine. -- I do like that the MT8 has nice rubber wheels on the wheelie bar though ... class.
the maxx is a tank
Mt8 is cool looking truck. But mt10 is better reliable basher for TA line up. Maxx v2 is beast tho haven’t broken it yet. I can’t wait for new stampede bl-2s to come out! 😎
The MT8 was my worst purchase in a long time . I had nothing but issues and failures every time I ran it . Once you tune the Maxx suspension it's a beast hands down .
How did you tune them?
What did you do suspension wise?
Great vid and definitely surprised how similarly they performed to one another. I also prefer the look of the associated but with all the associated models I’ve owned it has always played out the same and they just break easier for me than others. My mgt8.0 which I’ve always loved has went through countless arms and shock towers and even my most recent team ae the reflex 14b had a relatively slow flip and shattered the wing mount I just believe their plastics are more fragile and I’m only speaking for myself but for bashing I prefer traxxas and arrma, just ordered a maxx v2 and cannot wait to see what abuse it holds up to.
hello my friend. please, could you do a video about how to construct rc off road track, step by step? tks
Oh, and that body fits very nicely onto a Tekno MT410. :) And you can get clear ones cheap.
good to know!
My MT8 is one of my favorites. It just has this “chunky” (ha) feeling about it that is cool.
But it’s not tough! At all. But parts are cheap and the Kaiju parts fix most weak areas. It’s just heavy for the size arms and knuckles etc they have on there.
Totally chunky!
The MT8 is a heavy Truck. Of course parts will brake. The materials are not flexible enough. But the MT10 is almost indestructible once you added the RPM arms front and rear.
Great video
I would say of the 2 the Traxxas maxx is more durable and in my opinion, a lot more fun over the team associated MT 8. Now the MT 10. That thing you just cannot kill.
Was the xmax still going? After 1 jump?
maxx was perfectly fine
The nut covers on the wheels unscrew. It’s such a shame it’s not as tough as the mt10
A scammer replied to your post... dont talk to him. However, i do need to get an mt10
@@MarkSantaMaria you do need to get one. I’ve never know an Rc to take sooo much abuse. It always comes back working.
Love the channel by the way 👍🏻
my Son's MJX has adjustable turn buckles.... lol This isn't 1990s folk
I don’t think Barry is as meticulous as me tho lmao
Challenge accepted
I liked the video great content 👌
thank you sir
Not hard to upgrade the MT8 and make it more durable but the MT10 is a beast - great tenth-scale bashing rig! Btw, neither is made by AE!
MT8 is notorious for breaking the arms. RPM
Will you review the Stampede BL-2s when it comes out?
yes sir
@@MarkSantaMaria Awesome! Can’t wait!
@@MarkSantaMaria When you do the review, could you compare it to both the old Stampede and also a Hoss on 2s?
Put 6s in that truck it will be uncontrollable!!!thats mt8 is very simular to the kaiju which is incredibly powerful as well .
The covers just screw off 🤣😜
LMAO! we were so confused... hahaha
Hey Mark, have you NOT seen Talbot's review on the MT8? It's junk; his broke on the 1st jump, too. And all the INDEPENDENT reviews I've seen on it say the MT8 is junk and NOT for bashing. Now, the MT10 is literally a bulletproof beast.
MT10 With A-Arm Upgrades.
All?
@RazorRC Yes, I said INDEPENDENT. Pay attention to my words. You are a DISTRIBUTOR, ie you're gonna say good things to get people to buy it. I don't listen to distributors. I listen to people who are going to be real and NOT looking to make a buck.
@@jasonkraus7442 I’m a distributor? Are you sure you know what that word means? I’m not looking to make money, I could happily never make a YT video again and be fine. I actually haven’t made a video in 3 weeks because I don’t feel like it.
Healthy community of folks on Facebook enjoy the MT8. Few cheap upgrades and you’ve got a great driving truck. Repairing thems half the fun! 🔧 😅
Once again here you go making me want a basher 😭😩
love you videos
traxxas is king... when i was growing up my first hoddy grade rc was a rc10st 93' had a chance to buy a rustler but I didn't cause parts availability locally now...! with online shopping and awesome customer service. Traxxas is king! Mark your vids hv a good vibe.
😂 Great job Barry
The MT8 was a let down after waiting for it because of delays in release, as said the arms are made of glass. The metal turn buckles also snap to easy + the motor over heats, I know a number of guys who regret getting the MT8. Re durability it ain't no MT10 for sure.
After some kaiju arms and a cheap motor fan, I haven't had an issue with my MT8. It's been great.
@@_EV36_ it appears a lot of people are putting Kaiju arms on it. I need to just try the Kaiju
@@MarkSantaMaria No, this is a better rig than the Kaiju altogether for sure. It's actually one of my favorites after doing some minor upgrades I found from RazorRC. Much rather upgrade the MT8 than buy a Kaiju
That was a good video
MT10 way better truck. MT8 is known for having weak arms and too soft of tires.
Once you swap out the arms, knuckles, hubs and carriers to redcat kaiju it'll be 10x better.
Or you can get RPM arms.
Also 5mm arrma turnbuckles will be the next thing.
5x50 for the upper camber
5x65mm for the steering
An axial Ryft servo saver will be a great apron after about year. That's when the stock saver will wear out. Steering will no longer center properly when this happens.
I'm currently working on a shock solution. Should have that out in few weeks.
Oh look an arm broke on the mt8...who would have guessed
Broke a arm each time i took mine out, until I put rpm on back and front, 15 packs or so later not one break In the arms since
Team associated should be ashamed sending tbe mt8 out with arms like that
Barry is cool. 👍
Mt 8 isn't as durable as the mt 10 the 10 is a beast its unbreakable.
the max still remains the toughest haha
the maxx is an absolute unit
MT8 is known to be weak. MT10 is a tank.
Stock arms on the MT8 are garbage. Every video shows this.
Watching 2 race guys look over an 8th scale basher is almost as funny as comparing a metal chassis 1/8 basher to a 1/10 plastic truck. What a waste of my time.
It’s a very mt8 thing to happen. Break on the first jump. Mt10? Practically indestructible. The mt8 is notoriously fragile. Which is a shame.
Traxxas Tuff..!😁
Bahahahaha he said what u say! All there rtr stuff is based off old race stuff. Traxxas has nothing anymore based off of race stuff. There just a few cars put together to make one. Wheels of a rustler with shocks from a revo and a slash chassis amd ad a new buggy body and its the bandit maxx 😂 associated is based off of b4/b5/sc10 race cars and there cheaper then Traxxas cars. Traxxas is the apple way over priced for what get. Good yard cars though untill the crappy clipless body or shock cap pops off 😂
shock caps....smh
@MarkSantaMaria it's usually just a shock cap that pops off not multiple "caps" at the same time. Just need one to pop off to ruin your day unless you want to lug your tools amd shock oil around. Nice try though man smh
Back to back 😂😂😂
This is a very unfair comparison, everyone or everyone should know that the mt8 breaks all the time, usually for no reason! Now the mt10, there's an unstoppable basher!!
TELL YOUR BUDDY!
I dig that Boker Kwaiken! Burnley that designed it is a great guy! #spotted #ISeeeYou
HAHA! Thats mine, I got it when i was at Psycho Nitro Blast this year at a shop called Smokey Mountain Knife Works
@@MarkSantaMaria look up Burnley “work hard do good”. You’ll like the message behind the maker/designer. Small world mi amigo!
Maxx strong 🤝
3rd like! Normally first 😂🎉
Wheely bar is like kujuas well shock s
Almost all the kaiju parts fit
👍✌
MAXX is definitely better and the cheap truck couldn’t even land and broke in half. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Its got bigger wheels so it looks more beefier rofl
Maxx vs MT10 would be a better comparison. Cmon Mark we know you love Traxxas but be fair dude. The MT10 will outlast almost everything.
I knew that crappy arm would brake 😂 @kevin_talbot @tomley_rc showed it😂😂😂
it wasnt even a bad landing... smh
