The Sledge is already a beast on wheels, now it turns like one! The Traxxas #2280 is a very powerful servo, and the steering difference is night and day. Soon we will test the steering capability off road, and on the track. The MAXX and E-Revo will also be getting new servos very soon. Below you will find a link to where you can purchase, and get all the info on this servo.
Traxxas #2280 Servo: $159.95

Great video! That High Torque 600 servo is incredible. The stock Sledge servo in a Maxx is extremely slow. I went back to the stock Maxx servo shortly after trying the Sledge servo.

You’re exactly right, which is odd.

I had to replace the servo in my Maax right at the 30 day mark! To many skatepark chassis slaps! They sent me a new one, YES, after I paid to ship the broken one back, but still not to bad. I never even put it in, I bought the 2085x?? (X-Maax servo) and it was light years better than the factory junk. Customer service is hit and miss! We really beat on our trucks, break them often, their phone diagnosis is off more often than not. Granted, they are not present to see or hear what is going on! I had motor bearing in a Rustler go bad in 5 months and they swore it was the slipper clutch!😂😂 it’s all good though, at least they answer the phone. As far as after-market parts, the Traxxas fans for Rustlers are junk. We’ve broke multiple! We run yeah racing fans, housing is metal not plastic. ESC on one of the Rustlers went out in 4 months, running a Hobby Wing Max 6 with a 4S battery! The Rustler hauls the mail! Super fast!

I’ll half to try another servo in the Maxx. Traxxas support can be a hit or miss, but they answer the phone pretty fast. I’ve seen those fans, they are very nice.

Hello, I have a question: how to change the voltage on the servo to a higher 7.4v?

@redbanditracing Ай бұрын

You must buy a ESC that’s rated for 7.4V. Almost all Traxxas ESC are 6.0v There’s a lot of aftermarket ESC that have BEC of 7.4v like Hobbywing.

@user-xr9kg1jv7i Ай бұрын

Thank you for your answer, that's what I thought, it's a pity that the TRAXXAS esc can't change the voltage, I'll have to think about changing it to the HOBBYWING esc. Regards

@Daytona89 14 күн бұрын

@@user-xr9kg1jv7i you don't have to change the ESC. You need the BEC from Traxxas. Part 2260

Could we get more 4x4 slash videos?

We got one coming out this Saturday!

@Daytona89 15 күн бұрын

But you know, that the Traxxas ESC only suport 6.0V. You need the BEC Upgrade to use the full power of this servo

@redbanditracing 15 күн бұрын

The only way to run 7.4v to the ESC is upgrading the ESC to like a Hobbywing.

@Daytona89 14 күн бұрын

I'm not sure but i think you are wrong. Your new servo can run 7.4. you can use it with the stock ESC also with 7.4. but you need the BEC from traxxas. The part number on the traxxas website is 2262.

@Daytona89 14 күн бұрын

Or 2260. I'm 100% you need this. Then your New servo runs with 7.4v also with the stock ESC. Search on KZfaq and you will find the answer

What motor mount are you running? Do you think it works well?

@redbanditracing 15 күн бұрын

M2C Motor Mount, best setup for the Sledge. Check out the install video

Traxxas warranty is actually not the best, 30 days is not enough time cover it, in addition, after the warranty window has ended, it is a matter of whether they like you or not if they will give you a complimentary exchange, but the majority of time they will charge you 50% to get it replaced. I understand having to pay for parts that are deliberately broken, but I have had multiple servos, ESE and motors that have stopped working.

@redbanditracing Ай бұрын

I’ve talked to a few other companies, and so far Traxxas is still the best in my opinion for warranty. This hobby isn’t like other hobbies, they don’t know how the part broke they can only assume it was from bashing, landing hard, water, etc. It also depends on how you handle the situation on the phone. The one thing I do not like, if the part is under warranty you still need to pay to have the part shipped to Traxxas. Most other companies give you a prepaid shipping label.
