emaxx tranny idea - RC-Monster Forums

so today i was looking at my twin force and emaxx, and i thought, why dosent somone put the twin tranny in the emaxx? its nearly bullet proof, and its really durable. all that would be needed is a chassis that could accept a dirrect bolt in for the twin tranny and that would be it. measure it correctly so dog bones would be a dirrect drop in. i think i may try it some time.

That sounds like a good idea for durability especially with some of the brushless setupsthat people are using.

The emaxx transmission can be made tough too, with the steel idlers and a strobe slipper.

I know, but the dual force tranny is lighter and lower profile. might be a nice addition to a G-MAXX conversion

yes, but it will be lighter, and there wont be many worries of a geat breaking/slipping.

crazyjr, that is a good idea. i might get a g-maxx chassis and make a conversion for myself, to use.

What worries are there with a strobe slipper and a steel idler combined with the g-maxx 1 speed conversion..? tell me?

And as far as i know the twinforce parts are obselete/discontinued?

My BL, strobe slipper, G-Maxx single speed conversion w/ TI UE dog bones are SOLID!

Not to mention the G-Maxx CF X- tended Chassis and G-maxx suspension.....

well what ever, i know its a stupid idea. i just like the thought of having a chain driven emaxx. maybe ill do it just for the heck of it.

It's all good, just adding to the convo.

Try it out, maybe you'll have the next generation of E-maxx parts in your hands.... Interested to see how it comes out.

You're right, i forgot that it was discontinued, I was just looking at the origionality of the idea. also if you already got it, it looks like it has a better slipper without an upgrade. besides it's different

Someone on this forum used a chaindrive on his savage, from a twinforce..

here it is..

Isllamamon · 07.23.2005, 07:08 PM
