I've added the latest pics of the E-Maxx. Not that its really all that different, it just works now. Unfortunately more snow tonight, sigh.

That looks good. Waiting on show to melt must be even tougher than waiting for a package to arrive.

Here's where I mounted my ESC.

It's a snug fit back there, but the shock tower and the bumper bracket protects it well.

Does your E maxx weigh much more with the Aluminum upgrades? What tires/wheels are those?

Your Maxx needs a bath Sike!

The motor looks so lonely, no rat's nest of wires around it!

are those stock plastic diff housings in all that aluminum?

ilpufxit · **Yup, its plastic -** 12.08.2007, 12:42 PM

Very little runtime so far, they're holding together. I know it won't be long before I'm replacing them. Everything else in the driveline is metal.

I finally got some actual bashing time in on the E-Maxx. I have to say I'm really impressed with the outrunner system. I was jumping some 3 ft snow drifts at the edge of a parking lot. Worked great, very controllable.

I came in to do some waterproofing before it was too late. Unfortunately, as I was bagging the esc, I noticed that my upper chassis cracked right at the bellcrank mount. I know exactly which hard landing was to blame too!

Any thoughts on a good replacement?
