Heavily upgraded Traxxas X-maxx 8S RC truck - India's open forum for RC flying, aeromodelling, cars and hobby stores

Hello
Up for sale is the following RC truck : Traxxas x-maxx 8S

Condition :: It's in very good shape, used a very few times, and many upgrades on it are brand new, not a single run on them. Minimal signs of usage on the truck itself, looks brand new

Reason for sale :: I'm in college and don't have the space to store my RC trucks where I'm staying

Following is the list of upgrades :

Motor - Leopard 1340kv.............................. 160$
ESC Hobbywing max5................................. 200$
Upgrade 46kg metal gear servo, mount..... 100$
Carbon fibre trays.......................................... 70$
Carbon fibre ESC mount................................ 70$
Motor mount Aluminium............................... 80$
Unbreakable body........................................ 140$
Proline badlands...........................................200$
HR aluminium steering bellcrank support.... 55$

Kill mode RC Cap pack.................................. 50$
HR diff housing cover front/ rear................ 100$
HR front/ rear diff housing............................ 70$
HR aluminium cush drive cover.................... 30$

Total cost in INR, calculated as per Paypal rate as of 2nd Feb 2021 (77 INR / $)

1,395$ in upgrades alone = 1,07,000/- INR
930$ truck = 71,600/- INR
Total 2,325$ = 1,78,600/- INR

These are US prices. On top there is a 60% customs duty (tripled last year, from 20% in the past) + international shipping cost. Truck alone without any of the upgrades is sold for approx 1L by local Traxxas dealer (zeallhobbies), and currently out of stock. At similar conversion with upgrades, my truck with custom duties and international shipping would cost approx 2.5 L

Selling price :: Am selling the following rig for 1.50 L + local shipping from Kolkata.

What's included : Truck, tqi radio controller, bunch of extra parts.
All you need to add are your own batteries

Why upgrades are necessary :: A stock Traxxas X-maxx 8S has many issues -
1. Crappy/ weak Traxxas servo
2. Bad quality Traxxas ESC - prone to failure/ catching fire
3. Weak lexan body for such a heavy truck

My truck won't have any of the above issues as it comes with all weak points fixed with an upgraded ESC and servo, and UNBREAKABLE body.
