that looks legit. Great looking truck

I ran the mamba monster v1 for quite awhile when my stock esc was sent back to traxxas. I was able to run taller gearing and run cooler with it. Having said that, I run the Max 6 now and have no...

Thanks! They are the Hot Racing springs.


I feel you on that but this build is more function than form. Believe me I like a proper MT look too!:

You are right on there. I guess owning an X-maxx is pretty cheap compared to how much it cost to be competitive and have spare everything for raceday to make sure nothing gets in the way of your...

I really haven't had any interest in driving it the last few months. I do have about 5-6 packs through it so far.



Thanks!

Nice vid! I can't tell you how many Tekins I've seen go up in flames on race day. I think it's time is limited in an X-Maxx but hopefully I'm wrong!

I have to admit, I haven't touched my X-Maxx in about 5 months. I did get a new body painted and got some new parts from Unlimited Engineering but havent installed them yet. I got their new design...

That's pretty cool. This is what I'm using from Home Depot and it's only $40. I need to add some wood to keep it steadier for when I'm working on it.

got any videos?

I know you said table stand but here is what I am using from Home Depot.

I'm running the hot racing steel 46t but with the max6 esc and love it. smaller spurs and larger pinion gears result in slightly less torque and more top speed. personally, i'm trying to get rid of...

unlimited engineering is no joke! forerunner for high end E/T Maxx parts. The components were designed for monster truck racing back in the days before truggies phased the class out. here are a...

Wow didn't expect to see you here Robin! I can't wait to see what you put out. I'm going to be first on the list for the center diff!

the HR steering setup is a big difference from the stock setup. It is much more precise. sounds like there is a bearing missing or one is shot. It could also be the plastic post that comes up through...

yes we need an adapter or an aluminum servo horn setup (like the hot racing one) in 25t. Plastic will not hold up to that kind of torque for very long. I havent received my servo or horn in the mail...

Well it turns out they were already sold out of those servos so i went with the next one down. Still respectable specs....

you should still make sure your gear mesh is good with some slight back and forth play between the two gears. For some reason, i have to use the next pin slot up in my truck to get a good mesh ie,...

its almost too good to be true right? We'll see how it holds up.



i noticed that when i was getting the link to post in here. You can always get it from overseas.



thanks. I'm running...

ordered this bad boy tonight! http://www.taildraggerrc.com/bluebird-bls-h50b-full-aluminum-helical-brushless-digital-servo/

i have the servo adapter but have not installed it yet. We need an adapter that goes from 24t or 25t spline on the servo to the traxxas style horn with bearing on the end. Of course getting an...

looking forward to see if that big servo fits in the adapter and also what servo horn you will use.

i stripped three gears before i realized my inner slipper bearing had exploded. With my new build for some reason i can't use the motor location indicated by the chart ie I'm running 20/46 but the...

no I'm having trouble with the stock servo.

it's not the lcg aspect of that chassis but the shoddy looking finish and questionable engineering behind it that is turning me away. I mean nuts capturing all the screws, and no top brace?? Plus the...
