Good first run with the Max 6. Chipped a few teeth on the pinion, so the run was cut short. But another run is coming. Just need to put it together.

My GLRC parts are on the way I got wing mount,battery trays,his max6 esc mount. Can’t wait 👊

🤭😆😆😆 "BULL$HIT" Love it!! To True with "I Never have Broken a wing mount" I have seen pretty much EVERYONE change to a MAX6 ESC on this rig. The Copperheads look Great on it!! This rig Lands like a bucket of bolts, no lie. Maybe with some shock tuning, Maybe.... M2C is coming out with a chassis brace so that should help. I have seen a post for RC Dude81 installing a M2C motor mount with different gearing. That will be a "Test" to watch. I like your XRT & your upgrades so far. Traxxas ISN'T cheap $$$$ Stay safe and Bash on from Colorado!!!

I bought my x-maxx used with a max 6 in it and the thing has run great the whole time. This is my first jump back into RC's in about 8 to 10 years. My last batch was nitro's and I'm loving the x-maxx just bought my son a brushed e-revo with intentions of it being able to grow with him and upgrade it to brushless eventually.

It's really weird how we keep trying the same stuff back to back. I swear I just put the copperhead tires on my xrt yesterday and recorded a short test drive. Great minds think alike 🤣 I really liked them on there tho backflips might be even better. Keep up the stellar content brother. 😎 👍

@JasonPerrinRCVlogs Жыл бұрын

Yeah I have considered giving the Backflip's a try next. But, I was very happy with the Copperhead's. I almost wish I had picked up a second set of those instead of the Duratrax.

I just installed my my MAX6 last night using Basherqueen’s carbon fiber ESC mount. It has a really nice fit & finish and it’s not rough/cheap looking like some of these 3D printed ones. It’s the best one on the market IMO. I will prolly ended up getting those battery trays though.

Might as well order a new pinion and spur gear. Those have been known to fail due to poor metal quality. I also have heard of the gearing inside the diffs are losing teeth.

Just installed HW Max5 g2. Very excited. I feel like I will eventually want to upgrade the motor but if not I’ll pull out the new max5 throw in a max6 and upgrade the motor just a bit. Not sure. I thought I’d have a little more power but I was taking it easy.

I really appreciate the video Jason! However, I don't know man..This is my frustration with Traxxas. If you keep it factory..good or decent right? Let me ask u this..When was the last time you've suggested using Xmaxx tires on a new rig? Bro you've replaced the esc, battery tray, a lot in YT with cracked bulk heads..That makes this a truck over $1,500 dollars! But it's only to run it at a nominal level. Traxxas should make a roller.

Super late on watching these videos but I’m curious if some of the esc/ radio problems were from any overvoltage since you’re running lihv packs. At the end of the day that esc would need upgrading just curious if it would’ve lasted longer on standard lipos

@proto12qs Жыл бұрын

Are you having any problems with overheating? I am stock geared with the stock motor (with Max6) and no drivetrain binding. It would shut down and flash/blink green which i think is thermal/overheat protection. Any suggestions?
