Nice Project you have going here. E-Maxxes are so fun....:027: SO many options. Its almost limitless.

Couldn't agree more on this one Squee. Bent a few before I learned.

I have a questions concerning the Hardened steel idler gear I've been reading about it and I see you can buy a pair. Should I do that?(buy a pair that is) I haven't really pried open the transmission since I put the FFRC bearings in there.
2 things...

Skip the RRP Slipper. Spend the few extra and get the strobe (http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail...per-Kit&cat=40) and the plastic mod1 spur (http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail.php?prod=ofn30110) Much better.

If you get the single speed conversion then you only need one steel idler. ;) Even if you dont do the single speed conversion, you will likely only be driving in second gear any way so you could just replace the 2nd gear idler.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...
