Unboxing and Driving/Bashing!
This is a really great looking truck, it drove great, handled the terrain great, goes pretty fast, is durable, easy to drive, I do think that oil filled shocks would be better yet, but it still did great.
It has plenty of power to spin all the tires, goes through grass and rocks no problem, high speed on the road you will want to dial down the dual rates, at full speed it will get loose if you saw on the wheel too much.
Throttle and steering and very well proportionate, so it has a great feel. With the standard battery connector you could easily get more batteries for it.
PRO:
– Big tires, goes over almost anything
– Long run time
– Steering dual rates on the TX
– 4WD
– Steel drivetrain parts
– Great range
– Proportionate feel on the TX
– Great looks
– Durable
– Easy to drive
– Fast
– Spare parts and tools
– Standard deans T plug
CON:
– It says they are oil filled shocks, but they are empty, and Im pretty
sure would leak if you put oil in them, there doesn’t appear to be
a seal at the bottom of the shocks to keep oil in

Great review! Looks & handles like my WLtoys A979 … may grab one
I have 9115 and 9116. It is very bad. It quickly deteriorated. It was broken immediately. Four batteries are dead. you can only play for 10 minutes already. Is there anything wrong with this Smaxx car? What are the disadvantages? Do you recommend this car?
it is so so cool
i am geting the same one
How much time did you run with this little baby ,it is pretty cool love this won
This is not a review.. then why its named review?????
Hey do you know what size the wheel hubs are I’m guessing they are 12mm but I don’t know for sure do you know?
Where can I boy an extra battery?
it has a bigger brother the x maxx the beast by traxxas
man, I wonder if both remo 1/16 and a979 parts compatible? so are both trucks the same sizes? please inform…
“looks great” yeah that original body is innovative!

the video is amazing – What is the range of this Truck – I want to try FPV on it by putting an FX787T and pairing with my eachine ev800 googles.
We are looking for another car for our 4 year old son. Would you recommend this one? Is it durable?
