My emaxx is too heavy, 12 lbs. I run 5S in the sand, and race. One day it stopped, the issue was that the motor was cooked. I didn't know this, and kept trying things with the ESC. Once I figured out it was the motor, I put a new one on, 10xl. That one ran great, until it started to smoke one day, and when I put the temp gun on it, it was 300 degrees.

I put an 8xl in, but ran a low gear, and set my radio EPA to 65%. That setup ran fine for a while. While I was running in the sand racing it stopped. From that point on, the ESC would not turn any motor. To test that, I got a motor that another ESC could turn, but the MGM would not, and no beeping. So I'm not sure if it was my killing the motors or what.
