Esc burns up
My esc went bad recently after running proline badlands. For a 900 dollar rc the xmaxx is fragile. 6 months of owning and stock esc has burnt up, motor fans burnt up, all 4 stock tires have exploded,...
Seems like a pretty good deal for a complete kit, I might have to get one. Any idea what speed it would be capable? How hard is it to solder traxxas ends on esc?
Overpowerxmaxx thank you I will check the website out.
Gripdog7205 what brand gears do you run
Had the truck for a few months now and have ran it hard a lot and no problems till I installed badlands. Running truck for approx 10 mins in 60 degree weather and it stops running, now the lights on...
Stock tires are junk, pay all that money for the truck and run it on 8s and they explode.
My bad I should have worded that differently. I’m not selling them just saying there great batteries
Have you got it running yet? Interested in how you like it, I’m very interested in going this route with mine. I have the smc 4s lipos and they are very nice if your still looking for batteries
I ended up going with the proline badlands and I can say I really like them. Much much better then factory and I don’t see any issues with the stock servo so far. I will most likely end up upgrading...
Nice looking Dodge Charger. I have one myself also, raptor body matches my car color nicely
What kind of speed are you looking at with this set up? Is this a good deal hobbbywing sells esc and motor for 340. How hard is it to attach traxxas ends
Did the pinion gear come loose? I had an issue with mine coming loose and then eating through the spur gear. Loctite will fix that
Anyone own the badlands and duratrax? From what I’ve researched they both weigh 1 pound 11 ounce. And stocks weigh 1 pound 2 ounce. If this is the case I think I would rather have the badlands
Any reason you like to run stocks over the badlands? I thought the badlands offered better control
are they better then stock 8s? The ones you have are they street tires? I see there hard to find are they good? I would be leaning towards the hatchet x, lock up x, or six pack
I’m back and forth on these. I really don’t want to have to upgrade motor/esc because of how heavy they are. But I’m frustrated with the stock tires ballooning and tearing. Are there other options...
That’s disappointing they still balloon, from the videos I’ve watched they didn’t seem to and they are advertised not to balloon
So I’ve noticed a lot of ballooning from stock tires since I’ve upgraded to 4s and have blown 2 tires, was able to gorilla glue back and use. However I’m very interested in the proline badlands
I went with the hota d6 plus charger from smc-racing. Also picked up there 4s lipo 9400mah. Charger does good, 35 mins to charge both batteries and about 40-50 run time. Dust cover isn’t as good as I...
My fav upgrades so far are upgraded charger and 4s lipos. Just installed a dust cover and proline brute body, wish I would have had dust cover from start.
Would I be able to keep stock springs and do 50k weight all around? 30k all around is stock right?
Added 4s smc racing 9400 lipos, hota d6 plus charger, proline brute body, integy dust cover, and full cleaning. Next up changing oil in shocks and proline badlands
Looking to replace oil in my shocks. What weight oil is recommended and how much oil per shock? Team associated any good?
Would you recommend just drilling holes in stock tires over the badlands? I have been able to fix my stock tires with gorilla glue. 2nd one exploded today. Never had this issue on 3s lipos. This is...
Did any of you guys have issues with the esc after installing ? I read some reviews people left on them and a few said there esc started running hot with these because there heavier and a few said...
