Traxxas E-Maxx – All UE, Fastlane & ACNCM
Feigao 12XL/6S1P A123 &(or) PQ3700mAh/BK Warrior 9920/HXT ESC
+ / Super Strong, no plastic parts, Drop in and roll. Stock is an excellent starter truck.
- / Spent way too much cash to get it here
Savage(-X)
Feigao 7XL/4S1P TrueRC 6400mAh/Schulze 18.129F/HXT ESC
+ / Probably the toughest truck I’ve ever had. Perfect Basher!!
- / It’s really not that great for racing. Hard to make a motor mount for this conversion with a Lower CG.
Overall: Great basher truck, after the shimming method used by Serum, this conversion was just bullet proof. One of my favourite conversions as well.
AE MGT
KB45 11XL/8-12S1P A123 &(or) PQ3700mAh/OEMRC ESC/Lipo w/ HXT BEC
+ / Easy conversion, perfect weight distribution, lots of room for batteries, parts are readily available
- / Plastic Diff case sucks/slipper system on transmission is not the greatest/Stock A-Arms are weak.
Overall: After a few RPM Upgrades, it was tough. Again one of my favourite conversions.
Losi LST
Feigao 8XL/6S1P 4400mAh HXT Lipo and(or) 18Cell IB3800 NiMh/Warrior 9920/HXT BEC
+ / Easy conversions, Well balance, pretty tough after upgrades, has high and low gear option.
- / Plastic diff case sucks, and Stock A-Arms are wimpy.
Overall: After another RPM A-Arm upgrade and Aluminum diff case, this truck was tough. This also was one of my favourite conversions.
CEN GST 7.7
LMT 2280/5 Hi-Amp/8S1P PQ5000mAh/MGM 24.160/TrueRC BEC
+ / Like the Savage, a basher truck. Very strong driveline.
- / Heavy, Plastic diff case sucks, hard to convert, hard to find battery placement, Not the best racer.
Overall: NEED to upgrade the diff case to aluminum. Pain in the *ss to convert, but after all and said, this was my favourite conversion and truck.
