targetingxmod Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 So...since it came out..i know i had to have one. Got one from Germany cheap enough...as a 8s?? roller...so i bought it! And here it is... -I had put my Merv next to it to see sizes... First thing i made to it...as put a "women" behind the wheel...and a 1/5 wing on the body! I think i will stick to a stock motor...since this motors are 50mm diamenter and 110mm long. It's a TPPOWER motor already. I don't think i will be using a 1/5 motor on it.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tug Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Didn't come with a servo? Gonna use the pins for setting the mesh or do it manually? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.K Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 One of the few cars I truly regret parting with - my v1 was a dog but the newer 8s version seems a bit of a beast, enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought it second hand and as a "roller", no eletrics! Next i installed the ESC... (and gear mesh for now is used with the pin's system, yes!)

mydoddy69 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Welcome to the club 👍. Love my X Maxx has to be the best basher out there imo 👍👍 If you Haven't already have a look into GDS spur and pinions there much better than the stock rubbish 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(YET) -4s is not that slow or bad...it's still fun! -Don't have two 4s lipos equal! lol -Still learning how to drive it and feel! -Used 6s one time and guess what!! (spur gear imploded, think mostly because it had a bad bearing on the transmission!!) Ahahah! I have a 7s lipo...that will put it in and i wish i had a Castle ESC...cause of the LVC thing...but the HW esc still will work on a 7s lipo but with LVC off... a buzzer take care of that! And sure will use 8s in a near future...but for now i just use what i have! Also don't think this is a 8s capable rig! It will once upgraded! lol More videos...

Time kills the fun! And to sand it goes again! 4s to know if spur handles it! BUT 6s is coming! lol Edited November 7, 2019 by targetingxmod 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
