Clean the hull with Windex and paper towels, or you can also use a thin wet micro-fiber rag. To lube the bearings in your motor use a few drops of High Speed Bearing Oil on each bearing. For your...
Yes, some guys do install water pumps, but they're not needed. The only time you don't have cool water running though the boat's cooling system is when the boat is sitting still...who does that? If...
Not to say that the string trick doesn't work really good, and not to say that you didn't do a nice neat job with your tires. It does and you did, but, I personally never cared for the look. It is a...
I found that first post on how to make your own bushings. You have to go down a ways, because that's back when we all got screwed over by Photobucket (pictures start at post 18). Also, it has that...
That's what I understand. From what the guys told me back in that one post (several years ago), they said that link went sugar-lumps up. I had it in my "favorites" for future use, but dumped it when...
Wow! That's a big difference from when I got mine. I'm glad I bought a bunch of them when I had the chance. There must be a difference between them shipping to the U.S. and them shipping to Canada....
I still have and use my original 6s Traxxas tires (when I use (54/29 gearing). I use my Proline's when I use 54/26 gearing. The big thing with the stock Xmaxx tires (6s or 8s rated) is to take them...
Good for you! I hope you like it.
I'd order replacement parts, and keep them on hand. It won't last forever. If it breaks before your done for the season, you won't be down while you wait for parts. If it makes it to the end of your...
The only time I run my Xmaxx at the beach or in lots of mud is at the end of the season, because I know I'm going to completely break it down anyway getting it ready for the next season. Other than...
A lot happened from post 26 to post 52. Originally, I made my bushings, and posted how I made them out of Traxxas parts in another post. In that post, one of the guys found that you could get them...
You did a really nice job on your body...really nice!

That's funny, but in Maryland that guy would get pulled over in about 5 minutes.
Someday when my non-sensored MM2 motor and ESC fail, I'll definitely go sensored. Until then though, I'm to much of a cheapskate to just do it for the heck of it. (lol)
I don't know if COVID19 has anything to do with it now, but back when I got mine, I got 20 bushings shipped to me for a total price of just under 30 bucks. It took just under a month to get them, and...
I needed longer than they sell leads too, so I made all mine. Plus, I made my discharge leads too. You can get all that stuff (battery plugs, balance boards, and silicon wire) on Amazon.
Remember to re-read post #37 before you do. Good luck!
Yep, I second that emotion.
Man, 30 bucks just for shipping a hand full of bushings. Yeah, you'd almost have to get a personal loan out to pay for that. (lol) That's crazy!
Thanks, but no. I cut what I needed from this sheet of carbon fiber looking vinyl that has adhesive on the back. I got the vinyl from Pep Boys, and it came in a 3" x 2" sheet for 10 bucks. It even...
Is ZM 612-04 the part number?
Very cool, I know where you are coming from. Also, I got back into RC again with my Emaxx back in 2009 too. I've had a ball ever since.
It can't hurt to try it. You can always take it off, if your electronics gets to hot. As far as what happened to you, (IMO) you had a scoash of bad luck. I've never had that happen to me with any of...
I understand what you're saying, and thanks. I now you only used it as part of your explanation, but if I had a full sensored system, I'd use it. I got to believe that a sensored system would be...
No word yet from LT-Xmaxx on who makes that motor mount pictured in Reply-1968. Rats, I'd really like to know.
