e-maxx with Mamba Max 5700

[mahazael]

Hey guys.. I'm stumped..

I have an e-maxx with a mamba 5700 and I guess the term is 'Cogs'.. it just cogs when I give it throttle and doesn't go anywhere.. but when I give it a little push it goes just fine.

I am aware this ESC and Motor are probably not enough for this heavy machine but wanted to give it a try.

I am running the stock spur with a 14 tooth pinion. I would give my final drive ratio but I can't find the emaxx's 2nd gear transmission ratio anywhere (not final drive ratio). I also have it locked into second gear.

I run it with single 7 cell 3300 Nimh's. Would going up to 12 cell packs make a difference ya think?

If anyone out there has this similar setup.. let me know how it worked for you.

parts in car:

Gorillamax chassis (non extended)
Gorillamax motor mount
Proline 40 series Crime fighters

those are the most significant changes..

Thanks in advance
