It's a Traxxas TQ3 and everytime I go to switch the channels, it's wide open throttle and I can't turn the throttle trim down low enough.

Here's a new question to anyone following along. I took the Traxxas 3480 - Velineon VXL-6s Brushless Power System, 2200Kv Motor & ESC and installed all of it onto an aluminum base plates and now the forward and reverse are backwards. How do i take something from the plastic tub and put it into...

thanks to everyone who commented. Especially on the nitro's. I'm sure I'll be on here asking some questions. I have everything, I just have to assemble it all. I now own 3 nitro moster trucks, 5 electric monster trucks a Stampede and two rock crawlers. They didn't have this cool stuff when I was...

I'm still learning about all the different ESC's. I only got theVXL-6s, because that's what came with the 2200kv motor. I don't even know what the 4s or 6s means. But I just finished rebuilding the transmission. I only stripped out one idler gear, but I bought all steel gears and some bronze...

That's what I really wanted when they first came out. I ended up buying the SCX10. I've modified it with all metal tubed suspension, steel driveshafts and a host of other goodies. Basically I replaced most of the plastic stuff with metal stuff and of course went to a lot bigger tires. My son has...

Well in case anyone is interested in my progress, I ended up putting a Traxxas 2200kv motor with a VXL-6s in it. Well, for starters, y'all were right about it being faster. Jeez, I kicked it into 2nd gear and I ran out of property quick and I live in the country with 4 acres of mowed lawn. Now I...

whoever had the truck before me had done a lot of upgrades to the suspensions and drivelines. Pretty much everything has been upgraded and that was before i got ahold of it. It flat screams with freshly charged lipo batteries.

thanks for the input. I wasn't wanting to go to something that wouldn't turn it into a part snapper, just something that would duplicate the power it has now. I took it out last night now that I upgraded a bunch of stuff and I was quite pleased with it's peed and performance. So your input was...

yeah, 9x19 mentioned that earlier and it comes matched with a ESC. But I didn't want to do the exchange.I wanted to keep the motors it has for other things. So I just bought it outright for $260something thats funny as poop, lol

I'll have to look into the BEC thing. I went ahead and bought a Velineon VXL-6s Brushless Power System, 2200Kv Motor & ESC that'll get me started with a brushless motor. I still spend money like water on 4x4's, that's all I need is another hobby. lol but at least it's one hell of a lot cheaper...

lmao,,,yeah, i noticed after I uploaded the pic that my bong was on my desk. ooppsss, I'm legal for it though. lol that really helps explain it. I have my head still stuck with my 4x4's that the bigger the number, the lower the gear. I'm catching on slowly. lol I'm actually upgrading the...

First of all, I finally found someone else who says coo beans, lol yeah, I've got pics. I'm currently getting ready to upgrade all the steering on the Emaxx and I'm getting ready to go brushless on the Axial SMT10 I built. Just finished painting anew body for the E-Maxx. ok. I didn't know...

thank you for that in depth response. Having been building full size 4x4's and rock crawlers for the last 30 years, I know all about gearing and bigger tires. I have two mega$$$ rock crawlers at my shop. One has 4:56 gears and the other has 5:13 gears, running 42" Super Swampers. I don't really...

Does the Lower Kv rating make it faster? I also want to upgrade the Axial SMT10 monster truck and the Axial SCx10 to brushless. Money isn't really an issue, but I also don't feel like paying $400 for a motor and ESC I'm still figuring out how to reply to each posting. So thanks to everyone...

I recently got back into building RC's and I scored a Traxas E-Maxx and about a grand in parts for $300. It has two Titan 550 motors in it and has mostly all steel drivelines and shafts. I I bought the conversion plate to convert it to just one motor, but I don't have a clue on what I brushless...
