My kliiMaxx
 

Hi all!

I have put some parts in my maxx..

-3.3 conversion
-FLM diff cups
-FLM bulkheads
-FLM skidplates(f/c/r)
-Traxxas big bore aluminium shocks
-Integy's aluminium shock tower's
-MGM 16018 esc with fans
-BK wanderer 20XL06 motor :rofl:
-Maxamps 2s 8000mah lipos ( 2pcs )

So this is my setup now..i will buy gorillamaxx set someday..

I have ordered Lehner 1940/6 motor to my maxx...cause bk will heat up too much even i have short gearing.What should run be with setup i use now?in series?I wonder if i order 3s lipos(8000mah) and run them in parallel connection...probably enough speed but longer run time :neutral:

pic's coming ...:yes:

Welcome to the forum Hotti;
Your setup is very hot! that 6XL motor will get hot rather soon; use a tempgun to know what temperature it's running at, the 7XL is hot on 4S, so the 6XL will be even hotter.

I ran my 7XL on 3S and it was great fun for bashing. (and the temps where fine too)

This might be an interesting read;

Sweet!!!!!!! Those are some mad driving skills. What settings are you using on the speed controller?

I am seriously impressed by that truck. When you are doing speed runs like that I would say lower the suspension as much as possible, should help with stability and cut down on the wheelies a tiny bit. You are going to need a bigger wheelie bar though, that is some crazy power....

Thx mates..more power to come with lehner 1940/7 :whip:

Esc setting:

Car mode <->
light brake
auto timing
reduce rpm
4s li-xx
free wheel
no brake at neutral
no auto correction

Like that...Yesterday with 20XL07 feigao the temps where about 50'c...:diablo:

50*c, thats cool as a cucumber. You've had no issue with setting up the MGM correctly or cogging etc I take it?

Ömm?Could tell it "easier" cause my bad english skill?:oops:

:lol: I mean, you had no problems programming the speed control or anything like that?

Hehe...ok neil..now even I get it :yipi:

But but..

I had some major problems with esc at the beginning..

First it worked ok(the very first run).Then i tryed to programmed it to use with nimh cells.When i put nimh's on and turn the power on esc starts to beep beep beep....beep all the time.Even i put the default setting in it still beeped.

But when i had put default in about ten time in row it started to workin :yipi:..Now if i have run with lipos,i programmed it with lipos to use nimhs.then when i have drived with nimhs and want to use lipos i program it with nimhs.This way it works perfectly.Love the esc.

First i programmed it with transmitter, but now i have usbcom+ and CC02 cable so I can do it now with pc :whip:Much easier and safer.


So..

I have had problems with rear driveshaft's..they wont hold on..wonder why :whistle: :rofl: :whip:..Well..i had revo some time ago and had some parts left on it.So i modded revos drive shaft to fit my kliimaxx on the rear..Revos are much stronger,hope that will hold.

Pics with mod maybe tomorrow.

It seems alot of people are having issues programming the MGM esc, so you are not alone. As for driveshafts, the stock emaxx ones dont last very long as you discovered- tmaxx 3.3 shafts, knuckles and turn buckles should be fine though.
