I personally run a small RX pack...that powers my steering servo,shifter servo and a small fan above my ESC.....I've ran this for a few years...no problems to date....

Do you go on traxxas forums a lot? I used to until here!

I did along time ago. then I got fed up with the bs over there...and now I frequent here and UE.....

UE has one too? that might be worth checking out. I like the guys here though vs traxxas....much more helpful and much more willing to help!

PS, i bought that ubec....

good...then your in business then...

here's the UE site...

Thanks, i'll check it out tonight!

the pics work here coolhand http://emaxx.livedigital.com/

I have one of them ubec's, seems to work nice, although the plug going to the reciever split into 2 when I tried to pull it out my rx (airtronics mx-3 combo reciever).

How did you do the ESC mount? I would like to do that to my Emaxx, I have a spare bodypost thingy but I don't recognise the other bit.

Don't laugh..LOL, i used the front body mount, the other part came from my HV to cover the other hole from the stock motor. I cut a hole into it to insert the body part and used a criss cross servo saver and mounted with a screw from the other side...make sense?

But hey, it's light and durable!

I gotthe pics to work. It looks pretty good so far. I see you have your batteries done in a series and not parrelal.

Would you do me a favor and use the edit button neweuser. PLEASE!!

For some reason i thought i had them in parralel? hmmmmm...are you sure? I'm probably wrong. But from the diagram in thread how to wire it up, the first is not correct of course, but i was shooting for parralel when i did it, bit if it's in series, i'm gonna leave. can you confirm? thanks, and yes...edit button, got it!

Well I can confirm it yes. Unless you have changed it sincethe pics. You have the red wire to one deans and the black wire to the other with a jumper wire inbetween. I don't think you would have been happy in parrellal form. It would run about half the speed. If you happy run it. :D
