Hey everyone…..new here, but not super new to rc……
I have 1/10 and 1/7 electric rc already, looking at large scale next…..
This is and should remain a friendly conversation …..looking for constructive input on the Traxxas XMaxx….
pleas relate your experience, good, bad or otherwise…..
so far I am aware of the rear bearing situation, stock arms may need the heavy duty or rpm arms, and the esc may well need replacing with HW max6, even though one source is very strong for Max5. And yes, the servo will be replaced if/ when needed
I would run the stock setup from the box and replace as needed, whatever and whenever that would be.
lastly, my driving style….would be doing a lot of trail/track, grass/gravel, odd terrain, some ramps and jumps, but one thing I just can’t bring myself around to doing is going to the skate park and seeing how high it will go into the sky or bashing on concrete/asphalt. If that is your thing…..good for you…..but not for me…..as I get more accustomed to whatever large scale rig I buy, I will push its limits, so I will need a rig that takes a beating, as well.
This is one of 3 rigs I am considering, so, now, the rest is up to you….what has been your experience??
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!
All constructive honest feedback appreciated
