If you're looking for an easy mounting solution for the x-maxx. WFO's esc mounting plate and rx box for max5 works perfectly with xlx2. Bolts on esc plate line up perfectly and mounts the xlx2 as low as possible in the chassis.

And if you have a mounting plate for the hobbywing max 5 esc, the holes on the bottom of the XLX2 are the same so that's a win right there. I'm going to use the max 5 mounting plate from smc for the Outcast 8s. It fits the XLX2 perfectly for example. It's been done already 👍

@JonJonsOutdoors 3 жыл бұрын

Question, with Hobbywing and Castle what are average motor temps? What is considered to hot that it would cause damage? Putting in larger spur gears does cause my motor to heat up more than the original setup. Thanks for what you do bro!! You’ve helped me to open my eyes to upgrading my motors and esc’s. Almost finished w my Mojave upgrades, m2c, Max 6 w/1600kv and 20 T pinion. Can’t wait to get it out and raise Cain! Bought it a month ago and man I wish I’d know they were doing the EXB roller!!!! Would’ve saved me a ton of coin!!!

@ExocagedRC 3 жыл бұрын

Most I've seen on one of these big motors is about 150 degrees or so. They are so big they just move things easily. Now gearing up insanely for super speed can heat them up.

Nice info man, I haven't use a Castle esc for a few years now ,because when I needed to change settings at the track I could not do that, so I bought a hobby wing with a program box, that what Castle needs for there esc a program box so guys can change setting at the track, I love this new XLX2 but why just 8s what about 8s 10s or 12s this esc would be a bit more user friendly .

What gear pitch you running on your pin/spur? I keep destroying mod 1.5 from a b&m and fastlane. The weight of them, spinning at high speed makes them come apart. It seems like most people end up ditching the belt drive eventually so I don’t think that an option.

From what I've heard, the ec5 connectors are only 120 amp, it needs 150 amp connectors and recommend 200 amp connectors. Pay attention on the videos where the xlx2 catches fire and see if you can see what connectors are being used.

@NepDouble07 3 жыл бұрын

I'm currently having an issue with my xlx2, and I know you're pretty familiar with the xlx2 from using it so much. To put it as short as possible, when my vehicle is at a standstill and I give it throttle to accelerate, it accelerates normally, but as soon as I let off, let it roll for a few seconds then get back on the throttle, it'll brake. It will roll completely freely, until I apply throttle again... I have no drag brake enabled by the way. I apologize for the long comment on an old video, but I just wanted to see if you had any insight on this issue.

So when it comes to castle link, you basically have nothing plugged into it other than the castle link and the USB cable? So no external battery power or anything? I've never used castle link before, I've never actually even had castle electronics and I just ordered a 1650kv 1520 motor and the mamba monster x 6s esc. I wanted to calibrate the ESC using the software because it looks really clean and simple.
