About the Quantum2 Flux
Chassis & Suspension
The main chassis of the Quantum2 uses an internal honeycomb pattern to increase chassis rigidity. An aluminum center chassis brace further stiffens the chassis to ensure maximum durability. The control arms, turnbuckles, and steering components are all made from an extremely durable plastic. This plastic is extremely flexible allowing the components to absorb any hard impacts. The chassis features a 11.22in (285mm) wheelbase with a 13.97in (355mm) width! This incredibly wide stance keeps the truck from traction rolling while the short wheelbase keeps the truck feeling extremely responsive on throttle.
Electronics
Powering this brute is a 3500kV brushless motor paired with an 80-amp waterproof ESC. This 2-3S combo ensures insane acceleration and endless wheelies. Equipped with an MTX-400 Transmitter that gives you full control of the LED lighting, adjust trims, adjust dual-rates, and more.
Drivetrain & Tires
This 4WD chassis uses front/rear CVD driveshafts, oversized wheel nuts, metal gear differentials, adjustable slipper clutch, and a metal center dog bone to deliver the power from the motor to the ground. The rugged drivetrain floats on ball bearings to ensure extremely efficient power transfer. The Linebacker Tires are made by Tredz. These low-profile tires are non-directional and are perfect for gravel, mud, dirt, on-road, off-road, and anywhere your RC adventure takes you.

Truck is faster than i thought on 2s. Very durable and has power. Can't wait to put a 11.1v lipo in this thing. HPI has done phenomenal with this truck and at a great price also compared to Traxxas. A+
This truck is a lot of fun, definitely built for bashing! It has a lot of wheelie power and handles pretty good. I absolutely recommend this truck.
The Bad : Front differential broken after 2 packs on 2s in the grass. Pretty unhappy with the purchase and the time I’m having to waste fixing a brand new truck. Unless HPI ships these with better diffs and quality control I’d feel ambivalent about recommending. Daughter is extremely disappointed, widespread problem apparently as AMain perpetually lists the part as ‘out of stock’. The Good: Awesome truck when it’s working! Almost too fast on 2s, smooth suspension, fast steering servo, super light weight, easy to work on. AMain allowed me to return the original and I grabbed a new one. Will make sure all transmission components are adequately snug before first run. The section of the drive shaft that is between the front drive cup and pinion seems to be the culprit but time will tell!
New to the RC world and this is my first monster truck! It's a blast! Well built, fast, and fun!
very happy with purchase and Corresponding with Amain on their expertise and recommendations. happy to know they will stand behind this product with updates , parts, accessories. this truck .... I had no idea how these machines have changed technologically and performance for the past 10 years. loads of fun for $275 !
Reviewers generally rate the Maverick Quantum2 Flux (Red) highly, describing it as fast, durable, fun for bashing, and good value for the price, with some noting it runs well on 2S and 3S packs. One 3/5 review reports the front differential breaking after two packs on 2S in grass, and the reviewer says the replacement part was listed as out of stock; the same reviewer says the seller accepted a return and a replacement truck was received. Other reviews do not mention drivetrain failures, so the reported durability problem appears limited to a single reviewer's experience.
- + Fast on 2S and 3S
- + Durable under bashing
- + Good value for the price
- + Fun for bashing and wheelies
- − Front differential failure reported
- − Replacement diff reportedly out of stock
