niallrbroome Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Hi Guys i am looking at converting a tmaxx roller that i have to an emaxx. my question is, what would it take? I have the standard tmaxx chassis, can i use this and just drop the emaxx gearbox in? will the standard diffs (tmaxx 2.5) handle the brushless power? im sure i have missed a lot but any help would be great cheers niall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kpowell911 Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Basically, lots, sell it and buy an Emax 3905, it will work out cheaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sphinx Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Basically, lots, sell it and buy an Emax 3905, it will work out cheaper I just changed the engine mount to a motor mount and kept the same gearbox and it worked fine. No problems with the diffs either Gav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Werent you the guy who converted to a Brushed one though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sphinx Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Werent you the guy who converted to a Brushed one though? I stuck a BL one in it see if it would work and it did, then stuck the Sirio back in the T Maxx and sold it Gav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 fair enough, there is that way. IF you want to run your Tmaxx on electric, there is that option which is the cheapest. To convert it to a TRUE emaxx spec, You need so many parts its untrue, and considering you can pick up 3905 rollers for around a tonne, not worth it really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niallrbroome Posted November 27, 2010 Author Share Posted November 27, 2010 thanks for the replies guys, i might look at doing the cheap option first, if that doesnt work then just sell it and buy an Emaxx, if all goes to plan i will put a thread up on my progress. i need something to sink my teeth into so this could be a good project as i love my maxx cheers for all the help guys sphinx i will be droppin you a PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louder Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Ahhh welcome! to a rather large undertaking. The only benefit of converting is you can throw in hops ups that you want from that start. If you just want a stock E-Maxx just sell the T and get a roller. Constalation on this forum has a roller for sale at around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
