Thanks guys, looks like I'm buying myself a Christmas present! haha.
Ive had my 6S X-Maxx since launch, and I replaced the ESC wire with the fuseable link.
I havent had time to drive it much since then, and the other day I was out driving it and the fuseable link...
Hey man! I just finished my conversion, and id definitely recommend getting the forward only, and single speed conversion kits. Its like $16 for both and you have a stronger transmission.
Im...
You could try running some caps on the receiver. That will help keep the voltage up when the servo is being used. The BEC should also solve this.
I cant speak for these fans specifically, but I've run mine with a generic fan and had it PACKED with snow. Still runs perfect months later.
Depends on capacity and C rating, also depends on what your driving through. Yesterday I drained some 5500mah 30C cells in 20 minutes trudging through wet snow. On flat solid ground without pegging...

There are alot of misconceptions around LiPo batteries. As long as you treat them with respect, you'll get alot of use out of them. Some packs I've been using for 4 years. Just make sure of a few...
Hey man! Welcome! Your gonna enjoy it.
As far as lube and oils go, I've had alot of luck with CowRC's MooSlick. It dries and lubricates so its great for exposed components. You can basically coat...
Yeah i tightend the slipper according to the manual, and I just checked the pinion and everything is tight from what i can see. Ill give it another go tomorrow and see whats up.
Haha just posted it. Its when its accelerating away from the camera.
Hey everyone! I was out driving today, and my xmaxx started making weird noises when I would apply full throttle. It didnt happen every time, and it would clear up if I released the throttle, and...
Thanks guys! The pictures were taken by my sister.
I did manage to get it back on four wheels again with some CA glue and steel putty stuff.

Do it! Ill live vicariously through you after mine didnt make it today :(
Shock cap, bearing carrier, and it seems the sharp plastic of the bearing carrier cut a slice on the inside of the tire :(
It is also about 15*F over here... so I don't really blame it for...
So today I was doing this...

Your gonna love it! Mine has been an absolute blast.
Do not order the 6400mah 3s lipos from that certain online retailer. Ran mine once and it puffed one of the cells on the one pack. Looking to get some 8400mah 3s's.
I would cut the zip ties holing the wiring together and check the fan wire. It may have gotten pinched or disconnected.
Nice man! Welcome to the family! haha im jealous of your batteries. I got mine from a certain online retailer that shouldn't be named apparently. and one of the cells swelled after 1 run.
No problem! Just make sure they are mod 1 with a 5mm shaft and you should be good :)
I just ordered one of these,

I personally have experience with Robinson Racing pinions, and they are very good. I figured id try this brand out and...
Just pulled mine, its a 15t! I just ordered a 16t on ebay for $5.
Hey man! welcome to the forum! A 14t - 18t 5mm shaft, 1.0 mod pitch pinion should work with the stock motor. The spur gears from the XO-1 ive heard will fit the xmaxx. Id suggest starting with...
