hi sleebus I am new to the forum too but not to brushless e-maxx, I would suggest dumping the e-maxx less you have 1500 to drop on it. I have built 4 brushless maxx and there are to manny week points, trans diffs are the hard ones to overcome. steel idlers in your trans does help for a few runs, but if you shim your diffs and pack your trans plum full of axle greese you can get about 10 runs on a good setup. stock up on diffs and trans gears, I use tcrc diffs with kyosho harden steel tcd gear set, and ultramaxx gears in trans, neither are in prodution any more so just to fore warn you. If you want a setup for brushless I suggest the twinforce, it is more suited for brushless and pretty cheap, new they are 210$
