Did Traxxas update the Xmaxx to V3?

Just bought a new Xmaxx from Amain Hobbies. I bought one a couple years ago and bought the RPM hub carriers with oversized bearing to go along with it. I went ahead and did that with this Xmaxx as well... front casters and rear axle carriers. Low and behold... The bearings that were included with the stock Xmaxx were the same size as the RPM ones. Not to mention, the front RPM casters fit way too tight and I feel like ALL the stock stuff is better. Did I end up with a V3 Xmaxx??? If so, that is awesome that Traxxas fixed some of the issues.

No. Just a few upgrades that customers requested. They were all to make a better product.

So far, I have noticed larger bearings in the front and rear axle carriers (which seems to make the RPM parts unnecessary) and the included body savers and tailgate protector that I don't remember coming with the body. Anything else? I love to see a manufacturer making upgrades.
 
First thing to change as I just found out was the lousy plastic steering link off the servo folds over on itself and reduces turning to one side.

I too have the "updated" one
 
6s? :LOL:

I'm just going to leave this thing completely stock (besides the drywall tape and shoe goo I just put on the body) and see how it goes... going to try out the BMX park Saturday. I'm sure I'll break something... If not, then yay!
