Fly In My Soup Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 NEW TRAXXAS STAMPEDE KIT COMING SOON! Is there a monster truck build you have been looking to do, but you don’t want to pick up a some trashed/used Stampede off Craigslist? Maybe You already own a few trashed Stampede’s (looking around, I can see at least 3 here in the office) and you want to transfer the working electronics on over? Well have we got the kit for you! Traxxas will soon be announcing a new Stampede 4×4 Kit! We should have all the details any day now, but we did manage to scrape together a few shots of what is coming. It looks like you will get everything you need except for electronics in the box. A nice clear body to paint up anyway you like, and plenty of Traxxas stickers for decoration. I think a lot of people have been asking for a 4×4 Kit for a while, and it’s cool to see Traxxas giving their fans what they are looking for!

Bajadre Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 mmm Good ideal from traxxas that was interested in one of these on release but the vxl system puts me off after owning one before so a win win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCbutcher Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Traxxas because less costs more. Lol its cool i suppose but i bet the price will be minus motor. Is it the VXL? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydoddy69 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Sorry but what a load of crap ! Basic crappy brushed version minus electrics and clear shell isn’t a kit ! That’s ludicrous to say the least poor show Traxxas ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumper Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Is it an actual kit as in you build it yourself or is it just a roller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 The perfect base for a custom build and no crappy Traxxas electronics to worry about ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must admit Ive always wanted one, and this is the best opportunity, I saw it on Reddit other day, its $199 on AMain though, which I thought was pricey?

Nitroholic Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 now....lets see how they price it .... probbly £250 or so, I reckon Unless it's cheaper than buying a pre-built brushed Stampede and selling on the electrics...and I doubt it's really a 'kit' either, Just a roller with a clear shell.... then what's the point. Stampede 4x4 was always overpriced for what it was, and I don;t see this being any different. It's not even coming with the excuse of providing everything in the box for the novice to buy.

Kpowell911 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 On second thoughts, looks like its based off the `BRUSHED’ version, which I believe means bushings not bearings and those tyres? Also, its unclear if its a true kit or a pre built roller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathanio Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 I'm going against the grain and saying that I love fixed linkages on a basher. No faffing and the flex for maximum runtime. I had them on my sparrowhawk and they just worked How often do you change the cambe settings on a basher? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candyman Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I guess they're not selling too well, this is a good way to get rid of the parts. Same truck, different box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same truck, different box. i wonder if they are selling off parts to make space for a stampede 2.0 like they have done with the revo, because of competition from other brands, that they cant win by suing this time 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
