steephill Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 (edited) Go on then, I'll confess. I got one. The body has popped off a few times. Been repaired with shoe goo and dry wall tape. I'm not really impressed with the stock ESC, it's bit rubbish. So I've ordered a Hobbywing max 6. But i got to admit, it's a cool truck. Handles the rough moorland terrain i sometimes bash on better than anything I have used. Edited September 10, 2018 by steephill 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomzac66 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 The TB centre diff of the XMaxx takes 20 million what do you use I’ve heard [emoji101]ear plugs ??? I think I’d sooner use fluid but???So what would you use and where to get it from.I also need some 1 million so if I could get it from the same place and save on the postage that would be great.[emoji41][emoji1303]Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomzac66 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Crash them. New lower front bulkhead needed. I’ve a new one on order, with this one I’m going to epoxy weld it back together then keep it in stock, all I can say is that the [emoji269] was lucky. New front upper bulkhead need now[emoji12] Still, managed to clean and oil the bearings for the steering I was going to do the servo saver mod with a screw and nylon, but noticed the screw already in can not back out because it’s held down by a moulded piece which locks it in.

willb Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Question for anyone running the 'almost' indestructible shell. Has anyone found a sticker kit for it? Or, made some stickers for it? Windows are easy to take care of. Toying with the idea of getting one but the plain shell is a bit too dull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomzac66 Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 All back together New front lower New front upper Serviced the steering bearings servo saver and it’s made a real difference the steering is more precise it’s worth stripping down and doing, maybe my lad can now avoid the [emoji268] [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
