  we need more !! 

 

Nothing I haven't done with my X Maxx so if  they want to sell it to folks there going to need to think of something different ! 

 

Takes a hit well though  

 

This is a Maxx Beating ! 

 

 

 

That sure looks like fun!! Shows what a pita the Xmaxx shell is though on hard bashing.

So with the All new 8s X Maxx hitting the shelves with a super upgraded drivetrain this is now not looking like a X Maxx killer I thought ! 

 

 

Oooooo...

Truck body. Check.
Truck wheels. Check.
No stupid wing. Check.

OMG has someone actually managed to produce a Monster Truck that looks like a Monster Truck, and doesnt have any stupid gimmicks? And actually decent specced out of the box??!?!?!

Sent from my Galaxy S5 Neo

Raptor-like bodyshell would be nice without paint.

 

Wheels - still only one manufacturer making PROPER MT wheels / tyres - Losi for the MT.

 

These are a 'good race / bash option' but aren't realistic - no good for a replicate Monster Jam model.

 

Nice truck.

 

Al.

If this is a decent price and is good out of the box I might have one instead of an outcast 

I think from past experience, the running gear will be very solid, truck quite reliable, but spare parts hard to locate.

Agreed, I like it too.

Wonder if the diffs could be used 'elsewhere'????

Can't think what else you'd want to use the diffs in.

Looks great but so did the colossus truck and I've not seen any on here. I think it even came with savox 1256 servos. 

 

I can't remember pricing but think it was 500 ish and nitro. 

 

Cen can't ask premium prices and offer the bargain bin service. I bet most hobbyking rcs are easier to support than CEN. 

 

Which is crazy wasn't CEN a top brand in racing? 

 

My 2nd nitro rc was a cen 2speed Tc forget it's name but it had green plastic spurs. It needs a 1st gear putting on. I think it's still at my dad's house somewhere. 

 

If this is a cen reboot and parts and upgrades are easily available I will consider it. 

 

But then I saw an xmaxx great condition sell for £440 used so that might pull me in. 

 

There's a new 8s factory built xmaxx?

looks like a chunkier stretched savage

I like the chunky arms and turnbuckles.

Gives a bit of adjustability.

 

Al.

I'm liking this a lot!

150a ESC. Beefy enough?

I thought that, but although it looks chunky it doesn't 'look' heavy? what's a Hobbywing max6 in amps?

Fo sho.

The esc looks to be a Hobbywing quicrun to me i think the motor is a 4082 1450kv i read somewhere but dont quote me as i may have misread it if i find where i read it ill post it up 

So are there any UK / Euro suppliers for CEN or is it USA only?
