velineon E-Maxx

I don't think it would work, the esc is rated for 3s or 10 cells (RC Car Action says it will handle a max of 12.6volts, max charge of 3s pack). You would need a high kv motor to make it possible, 6 or 7xl or possibly 8l, to get the kv you need on 3s. It won't be efficient either, all these motors run extremely hot in a Maxx. The only possible option for any efficiency is a 2600 kv approxament Neu motor, we are not sure if the velineon can do a Neu because they are different from other multi-poles

patrick you've hit the nail with the hammer. What you said makes sense the voltage wont be high enough.... unless they make a totally different system for an e-maxx (i highly doubt this but they did make it for rustler/pedes) ill probably try a 8xl according to what you said gives me a choice with a little gearing to speed up or torque up right now the torque is just too much ill probalbly go flm chassis too to tone done the wheelies. My maxx spends alot of time on its back.....but that also brings up another question. Whats the weight of the stock plastic chassis,braces and rear center shaft compared to the Flm chassis kit together (replacing the same parts as the kit).....
The only thing stopping me now is an update on the e-maxx from traxxas!!! or better yet A E-Revo ( but for some odd reason i think they have something up their sleeve just dont know if it will be brushless at this point)the velenion system is just not capable... maybe a 12 turn dual titan setup? so now we all wait....or BUild our own :027:
