    My Traxxas XO-1 V1 Build Thread

    Nice try kudos to you, I looked into Typhons for off road basher but i'm not really an 1\8 buggy guy. I'm leaning towards the Limitless since i love the F1 car style and how's it one of the fastest rc cars you can buy\build. Although mine will be setup for mostly bashing\course racing but also...

    My Traxxas XO-1 V1 Build Thread

    Bingo you are correct! Even though i have thought of a Felony or an Infraction but i have thought of trying to adjust a limitless to be both a street and speed basher like my XO-1 currently is setup for. I'm in the debate if i should do a trick i learned from rattlecanonlexan on youtube with an...

    How's it going everyone? I know it's been awhile since i did something RC related but my last outing with my XO-1 Called Serena broke her front bulkhead from a small crash and it took a month to figure out what i wanted to do. All the sudden the Castle MMX8s\1717 1,650kv combo went on sale on...

    My Traxxas XO-1 V1 Build Thread

    Hi everyone, How's it going? Last night i started thinking about buying a brand new V2 XO-1 and either selling or stripping my old XO-1 for parts since it would cost quite a bit to make my XO-1 a solid speedrunner in the setup it currently has. My car currently has the Generation 1 Hobbywing Max...

    My Traxxas XO-1 V1 Build Thread

    I agree even though the stock XO-1 comes with a Castle Mamba Monster 2 but it has an extra cap bank soldered on it, Traxxas connectors that in my opinion aren't rated for high current draw runs and special firmware designed specially for the stock TQI radio which comes with the bluetooth module...

    I've been running mine on 4s these past few months since i accidentally killed my 2 3s batteries by running them too low and only running them on storage charge but i quit doing that for the most part for all my batteries. The one i have has a Hobbywing Max 6 G1\1,650kv 4985 combo i put in early...

    That's what i love about cars like the XO-1, the Arrma 1\7 on roads, the Hobao VTE2 and the Rlaarlo AK-917 or 787 they are so crazy fast and you can mod them to go extremely fast. But currently i'm looking at doing more off road vehicles i can run at my grandparents since they have a wide open...
