Teyssere Photo I have a leopard 4282 1650kv however I’m going to upgrade it to a leopard 5882 1350kv as I like more power and it should fit right in with the stock motor mount

@@scott1171 what ESC?

but u can get bored..im bored of mine now

Yeah I put a hobbywing 2200 kv in mine. It's not much faster than the stock motor but the torque is insane.

Does anyone know what's the most powerful motor to use with The original Esc? 🤔

Not against a modded erevo. Erevo on 8s is the most overpowered car in the world

Lol why over mod a erevo when u can have a ready to run basher already lol

@@Ispeakthetruth535 because it makes the performance better to mod?

I understand bro

Yes it is my favourite

It's definitely a looker!

I sold the erevo2, kept the maxx

Lucky! I got rustler and slash

But that’s a Maxx and you have a X-Maxx. Two different cars completely

I did the same basically. Bought a Hoss 3S and broke several parts replacing them with upgraded parts until I broke something I had to wait for a few days into owning it. Went to the Hobby store and came home with the X-MAXX and Dual Live 28 charger with 2 4S batteries totaling $1500. Destroyed the X-MAXX plastic servo within 2 hours of owning it. Couldn’t get an immediate replacement plastic one nor could I get any upgraded servo in town. So I ordered a ProModeler 930 kit with 2S LiPo battery and horn, now waiting for the stupid mounting bracket for it, so I ordered a 1 day shipping plastic gear servo to get it back in service. First day out with the replacement servo in the X-MAXX and I broke a rear shock mount. Purchased the upgraded aluminum shock mounts but having to wait a week to get them delivered. So I went and purchased 2 x E-REVO 6S (one for my dad) Broke the plastic gear in the motor second day owning it, purchased metal gear. Nothing else broken on the E-REVO yet but I went ahead and ordered 2 x 400 High Torque servos for my E-REVO and then bought a Savox or however you spell it high torque servo for $70 open box MSRP at $150. Got the HOSS back running with all upgraded parts in suspension and body mounting. Waiting on X-MAXX shock mounts and servo adapter. And E-REVO is about to have all of its upgrades installed tonight.

Me too…and the Typhon, Kaiju, Vortek

Definition of “go big or go home!” 😂

Is the wide kit only available thru traxxas? Or does RPM have a kit?

Don't need wide kit if you are on dirt

what are best batteries for widemaxx ? Is it 6700 traxxas or compatible team orion ?

@@marryalen6286 6700s technically don't fit but I modded my battery tray to make it longer and I use velcro straps going through plastic to hold the battery in there. The 5000 battery is the largest battery for the MAXX and fits with no modifications.

What one is more durable

Which one do you like better?

I'm assuming you have a Maxx. Do you think 80 weight would bend the shock shafts, or cause other parts to break? Thanks

@@cameroneshleman4833 I don't actually have a Maxx but I think 70 or 80 weight would not bend the shock shafts as the shocks are very large and strong. 👍

@@innovativerc7155I appreciate the response man. Have a good one👍🏻

I want a Maxx SOOOO bad

@@zekehembree7447 me too dude

@@LIFEOFSTUFFEDANIMALS get the kraton 6s its 50 dollars more and the upgrades are 1/8th scale metal driveshafts metal chassis 6s power metal shocktowers and more its a no brainer to buy the kraton 6s only a idiot would buy the maxx

@@skyshade9106 I don’t own either, but I have watched a lot of video reviews and read a ton of stuff about them both. From what I’ve gathered, he Kraton 6S is slower, but it is built better. The problem though is many people have broken a lot of things on the Kraton 6S despite it having metal driveshafts and such, compared to nobody ever having to replace things on the Maxx despite its plastic components. People love how indestructible the Maxx is, but they live the steering and ergonomics of the Kraton 6S better. Really just depends on what you want out of the car. For me, I would like the Kraton 6S for its agility. Apparently the Maxx rolls over way too much on pavement and dirt, which would be super annoying. I’ll take agility over durability, hence why I even choose to buy European cars over Japanese...

@@JacesOwnWorld people think metal part are better..in some cases only as they expose less durable plastic parts to break that might not normally. Whats needed is a more durable plastic made from longer chain molecule plastics which flex and not break as they're not as brittle.. the caveat is it's more expensive and will stretch in areas ie shock ends and steering arm end holes. Partly why this hobby is so expensive

Thanks!

Where did you get your E revo 2.0 every where around here is sold out I found one place online has 1 in stock

Man....I got both recently....The Maxx can take a beating....The E revo can 2...all I had to do was swap out the push rods....part number 8619 was a game changer

Joshua yup, the erevo can be lifted or further lowered, it has tons of suspension travel and ridiculously endless adjustments, it only has a few weak points in the servos and rear droop travel, and has superior electronics. . What makes the erevo so fun is hucking it into a power slide at 30mph and just watching huge plumes of dirt rise out of the ground as it drifts for 100 feet.

You are welcome and thanks!

Agreed, me too

If money doesn’t matter to buy one of them what should I get xmaxx, revo 2.0 or maxx?

The fun factor matters the most to me!

😂

🤣 Same. Revo for all that it is and Maxx for when the Revo breaks and I still want to play.

I took a break also at one point. You are going to love that E Revo!

Thank you! Thats awesome. I'm glad you like the videos.

Outsourced RC yes always enjoy and you have an excellent driveway and grass area to run! I often have to take mine out to run but luckily I have some nice spots just 5-10 minute drives from my house at least! I really should scoop up a erevo 2.0 they are out of stock everywhere near by. I’ll wait a bit for some to come back into the hobby shop

Thats a lot of work, but sounds like a pretty good deal

@@outsourcedrc It's my favorite part of the hobby 👍😁

Awesome!

Thanks. The tie rods are the same. Thanks for reminding me about that zip tie. I always mean to put it on there and I forget.

I bought a Maxx two weeks ago and 100% am happy with the choice. The wide kit for the Maxx is a must. You can also adjust the sprint rate and it really helps to reduce the wheelies.

Thank you!

@@outsourcedrc ûf guy 6

Thats awesome!

That thing is tough. Maybe you should get a Slash Ultimate. That thing is really good from what I hear. i want one.

She finally broke something 2 days ago... snapped axle

@@alienfrmearth It was going to happen at some point.

Thank you so much!

Thanks!

I agree the e revo is a cool car but it’s proved that even once upgraded, it’s still not super durable compared to arrma 1/8 cars

Thanks! I do enjoy them both. My friend was over the other day and he broke his V1 E Revo so I let him drive the Maxx. He was smashing the Maxx into the ground and it was taking it, while I had to keep making adjustments on the E Revo. Pivot balls backing out and all that.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Where do you put the Duct tape?

@@kevinsinger7941 I duct taped the entire body like a vinyl wrap on a car.....with a cool design duct tape and it looks insanely good!!! I have buddy's that want me to do it to there cars and trucks and I did the outside of the body because it was already graphic so I covered that up but if you have a clear body duct the inside and make sure you follow the graphic on the duct tape because it starts over after so much so I liked to keep the theme lined up 👍

Yeah the Maxx is a tough one. I'll have a new video with it soon.

I have a GoPro that is ether strapped to my head or attached to the controller.

I think I’m done with the e revo chassis so I’m going with the maxx

Xmaxx might be but not the Maxx with proper setup.

I swap the whole drive shaft from one side to the other. It does reverse the twist.

I'm going to do that and make a video on it and see what happens

I use the stock tires. They hold up well for me. I know some people have a driving style that does not suit them, but they work for me. I have a video on my channel showing what servos I use. They are Savox. I think they are 1256.

You can fit other brands, but they never fit right.

you are welcome!

Get an x maxx for sure if you can my buddy has the revo i have the x maxx its worth the money. Mine was stolen and ill be building a new one on my channel soon with all the upgrades to make it so strong.

I have both and I can say that the XMAXX is just overall better. E Revo out of the Box needs Limiting Straps and New servos (not really if you set up end points correctly and turn off tsm.)

They are both fun and you cant go wrong with either, but I like the E Revo most of all.

I would choose the erevo myself. More cost efficient and I feel it's more fun to drive. The xmaxx will ride willys all day if that's what you like though. I myself have yet to run a car I enjoy better than my erevo honestly.

I have the Maxx, but if I had the money, I would get the XMAXX, My friend has one, and it's just a lot beefier than than E Revo. The E Revo is more like the Maxx, so the XMAXX is a big step above the E Revo.

I believe it.

With the 8700 ID this thing Flflys and it is way faster than the revo with it installed.
