HPI-Killers Axial Exo Build & Showcase

A Mamba Max Pro with a Neu-Castle 1415-2400kv motor is what I have sitting on top of my EXO box waiting to go in when I get around to building it.

The lower the kv the more punch it has? DOnt want too much, only have 2 options that the company carries, they were back ordered on the 4700 kv combo.

Also, are these setups sensored, I want a nice easy trigger pull.

Both of your choices are sensorless.

I love the look of the EXO, LUCKY!

Imo, I would go with a SCT combo. 3800-3900kv seems like a perfect balance between torque and speed. Buttt, I have also heard that a 550 can is really reccomended for the exo....you could really go either way

I cancelled the esc combo with the company and am looking at a sensored Novak havok SC 3300 13.5t combo.

I have about $550-600 I can drop into this rig

Okay guys I need help picking a BL combo. I am looking for a setup that has a crawler style low torque that responds to the slightest trigger pull all the way up to WOT. I am going to take this on some very light scale trails and need the realism of throttle.

Any ideas would be GREAT & preferably around or under $270.

Bump TTT, looking to buy this combo within the next 24 hours.

^^Any help on this? ^^
-------------------------

Its funny, I ordered this stuff from CKRCC like 6-7 days ago, and they are located in Reno Nevade (right next door to Utah) and am still waiting on the delivery....

If they didnt have such awesome deals on stuff I wouldnt even shop with them...


I SWEAR TO GOOD GOLLY IF ITS NOT HERE TODAY, I WILL, WILL, I dont know wait another day........

Since you want sensored, take a look at one of the Novak Havoc setups.

Can I get the same trigger pull on sensorless? When I had the CC SCT combo in my XXX, it jolted and was not a smooth takeoff.

To be safe for what you are looking for, I would get a sensored setup.

I use Novak sensored setups in my touring cars and they are smooth during takeoff.

I decided to go with the Velineon combo, only good setup my lhs had, then came home to find something

I thought this a build thread? The only thing I've seen built yet is suspense.

Yeah, where's the "build" part of the thread?

Wait I'm doing a build? I thought was just the Axial Terra teaser thread? Oh yeah it has been lol BUT NO LONGER!!

HERE SHE IS!! Well, the box shes in, I had to show you before I open it this time instead of open and start building then take pics...

ALRIGHT! Here is my progress thus far. As sopon as I opened the box I went to town and will do until its done tonight!

Diffs, the E clips were a friggin joke..


Drivetrain, was very simple and was shocked to see steel shafts all around.


Chassis, the plastic sides of it seem a tad flimsy, I hope it gets stronger.


Dt bolted up to chassis very nice



More to come soon!

Okay, I couldnt keep my eyes open last night but I am good and going again this morning and have this:


YES SHE HAS MUSCLE NOW!


Go to tighten her down and.................crack, crack.
