Mine has run great. I had no problems with the stock setup and I recently went with a 10XL with a mamba max esc on 14 cells with a 24/58 gearing. Wheelies non stop and tops out around 36 or 37 I'd say. Have lipos on the way and plan on running 5s2p through it. Probably going to drop down to a 22 pinion. It warms up a bit if running in the grass.

so far so good I only broke 2 shocks on a misplaced parking curb I thought I had the corner but cliped the curb and im very lucky that it missed my van when the truck went air borne...Im running twin VXLs on 7cell eg4600 packs with 22t pinions it has loads of power and does great wheelies I almost want to put the wheelie bar in the front and do a reverse cat walk on video

compared to my old maxx its far better you dont have to spend money on upgrading to handle the power its all done and when I bash .........I bash the piss out of the truck

hi

my experience so far from several packs with stock electronics and very moderate bashing. broke the two rear bulks at the screws that hold the shock tower. it seems a very very weak spot due to the screws there. the shock tower is a way to rigid (compared e.g. to savage towers).
one shock bend.
performance with 14 good nimh cells is ok. with 4s trakpower ok (good runtime).
not sure what BL set i am going to put in... if at all. but my plan for now is to go with a moderate powerful set because the truck is quite lightweight.

bye
