In this video I show you how to swap out the servo in the Traxxas Maxx for a better servo.
Servo I used: traxxas.com/products/parts/se...

Interesting that you went for a Traxxas servo. It's a popular truck, that is great for newbies. Those new to the hobby that get the courage to change a servo don't want to struggle making things fit that don't perfectly line up. Even with a little know-how I may choose do go traxxas if updating the Erevo servos to avoid the hassle. It's hard ponying up for traxxas electronics at my experience level though.

I've had pretty good luck with most of my Traxxas electronics. If this doesn't work, I'll get a Savox.

@thisIsRC 2 жыл бұрын

I'm surprised you hadn't stripped the plastic gears on the stock servo. Now that you have a bit more torque you'll find the servo saver is probably the upgrade that follows. The stock plastic one wears out fairly quickly. I went with an aluminium GPM one.

yeah I'm waiting to see how this servo works out before upgrading my servo saver.

You should get a better bell crank that’s what will fix the bad turning

Any other brands servo work in the Maxx? If so please advise. Looking for more torque than the stock or even the upgraded Traxxas one.

@thisIsRC 2 жыл бұрын

Yes any standard size servo will work, you just need an adapter. Traxxas sells a plastic one that is very inexpensive, there also aftermarket aluminium ones. Promodeler servos would be my pick.

How did the savox work out did it fit? Almost seems like overkill for the maxx

Intresting choice buying a servo with only a 2 star rating on Amain, hopefully it works better for you than it did for everyone else.

@outsourcedrc 2 жыл бұрын

I don't really care about the 14 reviews on that site. All but 4 of them are from over a year ago. Several are two years old. It has a 4.3 star rating on Amazon out of 435 reviews.

I think you servo saver is loose or worn, could se the wheels not getting anywhere near the end point of what it should. I had the same issue and fixed it with a new servo saver and a nut and bolt mod through the whole assembly :)

2085X is also junk. Crapped out after like 25 light runs on our XMAXX. I’m absolutely done with any and all Traxxas servos because they are all garbage. I’m going with the Reefs RAW500 for our XMAXX.
