Traxxas Summit Review! 

Yep! Traxxas have done a great job of not really changing anything on this machine. It was brilliant from the start! I don't mind that mine needs a little work, as it came to me for £275 off Ebay fully working! I will replace all 4 wheels/tires very soon as they are all "distressed" in the sidewalls. Very happy with mine!

My Summit is a first gen with the old TQ transmitter. It works just fine so I won't (don't feel like it needs) put in a new style receiver or transmitter. I didn't drive it for about 6 months until a few days ago. I converted it to Castle Mamba Monster 2 six cell brushless power. I also installed some Rock Crusher 40 series tires on Dick Cepek wheels. The brushed motor struggled with the Rock Crushers so it wasn't until I installed the Castle system till I used them. I had the castle system for about two years as well as the tires but was waiting for the brushed system to die. I do like the Summit and does do really good in deep mud. I need a few micro servos as all but one has long since died. Still looks like new except with a brushless system instead.

Solid review very detailed and informative subed and liked!

Quality video man! Awesome review!

Nice Video, can‘t wait to get mine tomorrow 🤩 in purple.

I have an older Summit and use it for FPV. It's suspension is great for first person view, because it is so stable you don't need a gimble. I just wish there were other body choices available. Would like something with a open drivers cockpit so I could place my onboard camera inside without the dark wind shield. Thanks for the review...

Ive always wanted and still want one of these

Really have to congratulate you for this comprehensive review. Well done. Really wanted this vehicle for a very long time and I hope Traxxas continues to produce it in the future when I will finally be able to afford one.

Great review. I have one and I pretty much agree with your comments. Servos are definetly the worst part of the truck. Mine lasted only two runs. I drive it on a mountain area near Madrid and as you said it does a little bit of everything, bash, trail, crawl... I have two more trucks: a HPI flux 1/16 and an Arrma Granite both great Rcs but the Summit is the one that I drive most.

Great video and review!

Will this platform except 3s hard shell battery packs? Also, can the E-revo be lifted with the stock shocks/springs from the Summit? So I could have best of both worlds👍

Wow. GREAT review. Really good coverage. Thanks a lot!

One of the best extreme crawlers out there I sure do love the two I got 👍👍 Cheers mate

I get all my decals from MCI, only downside is if you live in the southern part of the US it takes almost a month for your decals to come in. I love my Summit, I was wanting a green one but ended up with the Orange as well. I haven't ran my stock body at all, the day I got it I ordered and airbrushed the Pro-Line Bronco body which unfortunately was discontinued not long after I airbrushed it so I don't use it either lol. I'm currently running the Pro-Line Dodge Ram body with Pro-Line Super Swamper tires.

Great review.

Great review man! Thorough. I'm going to try to get an orange Summit. I wanted green, but.. they don't sell them anymore.

But the amount of grab on those tires is amazing.

People think that the shifters and 5 channel receiver came along with the TRX4

Nice review. I want one. Trying not to buy, though...😬

Great review! Thinking of buying a revo, but I like the two gear set up, and the 775 motor on the Summit. So my idea is to make it more like a revo, but still have the 2 speed tranny and diff lock. Probably even slap a set of truggy wheels on it and take it to the track.

Summit is the Summit of monster trucks! For like 15 years now. People just don't know. I don't know why they don't get it.

I don't think any RTR brands have waterproof receivers. HPI used to.

cool channel thinking about buying a summit

Did the Fox sticker come with the Summit?

Good video and that's a cool Summit body.Can you tell me where you got it, or even a link thanks
