I own a fireteam and overall it’s the best off road rig I own. I also own a 5th scale Kraton 8s and I can assure you It gets more drive time than the Kraton
Love it when someone is not afraid to get em dirty! And the holes on the tires are supposed to be there. They will fling dirt and water out as they spin.👍👊
nice video! 👍 i got me a fireteam and it is worth every cent. its an absolute beast. i had thesame problems with the ballbearings till i swaped the steeringblocks with vitavon parts. aluminum housing and 5mm thicker ballbearings do make a major difference. got rid of the spektrum electronics and went for a max6, 1650kv combo for bit more torque. 50kg servo keeps the car in line. its a blast. sledge and the fireteam where the 2 options i had but went for the fireteam , cause my 3s batteries i use, dont fit into the sledge.
There is no need to use Traxxas batteries in Traxxas cars. I've got a Fireteam and an 8S X-Maxx, and I can use the same 4S batteries in both. I've never bought Traxxas batteries for my Traxxas cars ... adapters make that easy. Each vendor platform has pros and cons. My Fireteam is faster and has an awesome scale look, but Arrma should have given it stability control instead of that silly brake. Traxxas has cheaper replacement parts, plus faster/better battery-mount and body-mount systems. I like both! 🙂
Not sure that plugging the tires is a great idea as that is part of the shock absorbency system. That being said, if you want to do so you could probably use Fix-a-flat or something like that. Doing so in the rear wheels only could also work as a ballast to keep the rear end down when going over jumps.
The hole in the Arrma Fireteam. Actually all Arrma truck and cars have vented tires so less ballooning and for the water to escape plus every Arrma has all waterproof. Not the Traxxas the receiver aren’t just receiver box.
The idea of the hole in the tyre it's self maybe the go, with centrifugal forces forcing water back out of the tyre, don't really know just speculating. Maybe ask Dr Karl 🤣🤣
Thanks for watching guys! Make sure to check out my other vids and smash that sub button if you havent yet 😉!
... oh and don't forget the like!!! 😁
My sledge broke after 10 mins, garbage

Hell yeah bro! If you keep them too clean just means your not having enough fun with them 😁

With the finest aftermarket upgrades, none is better than the other.
Awesome vid. Will keep that in mind about the sledge tires.
😁😆😆😆
Subbed. ya got potential kid - Keep the vid comin'!
Thanks bro! Appreciate it!
Great video man! Awesome intro!
Thanks bro!!! 😄😄😄
Great video, thank you
Hi to the King from the Basherqueen 👍 Thanks for this comparison 💪
Hi Basherqueen 🤜🤛👍👍👍, thank you and your welcome 😄
Can we hear the cars jumping and driving without the music soundtrack playing
high quality stuff as you can expect from Kings RC
☺️ thanks bro 😊
Good stuff mate.. listening to this I'm glad I went the Talion, the sledge looks good but the chassis bending is disappointing.
Thanks mate!!! Yes very disappointing, for something priced so high.. but man it drives very nice tho...
and the motor mount problems
@@idan678 true
You got to move that battery holder to rear position on Fireteam.
Good video mate, we’re is that track too? Looks like a good little rip spot
Thanks mate, its at the canterbury reserve park
Nice.
Thanks
awesome vid bro....best bashing cras💪
keep going champ....great track 05:45😍
enjoy my friend😍
Thanks so much Brother! 🤜🤛
Great vid , I’m happy with my EXB Fireteam I built 💪
Traxxas want you to only use their motor and batteries …. no thanks 😝
🤣🤣🤣 Traxxas is like Apple
@@KingsRC Yur not wrong there 🤣😂

Hey Zurl Great Idea! Thanks for watching bro stay tuned!
Let the mud fly 😁 I nearly pulled the trigger on the Fireteam, but ordered the Arrma Mojave exb 😁
Cant really go wrong with eithef the mojave and fireteam tho Jeff... just means youll need to get both 😃
@@KingsRC 👑😎👍
Tengo el fireteam y es una locuraaa
i like that linkin park ending

Thanks for the info Mo! Seems the traxxas foams are bad quality as they disintegrate soon as water hits it.
@@KingsRC yep, I vent all my tires and seal all the wheel holes. It slings out and they actually can stay pretty dry. I run Arrma
@@olafstrand9965 awesome! I wont worry about the arrma's then!

🤣🤣🤣, the arrma must have waterproof foams 🤔
@@KingsRC hmmm that would be the only issue, foam naturally hold water….there’s a major flaw in my theory 😂😂😂😝
🤣, I guess thats the reason why traxxas dont vent there tires and allow you to plug from the rim so they can keep there cheap foams in it. 😅
Arrma forever!
Where was this? I want to go there hahah
Canterbury Drive reserve 😁
Fireteam is king
The bering on fire team is very comen broke on mines n just about every one i c same side to
Fire team r x maxx??
Oh yeah that would be interesting 🤔
TEAM ARRMA!! 😆🤙
How much scratch did Arrma pay you for this review?
