I ran a super lightweight emaxx 2wd. I used the stock plastic chassis and a feigao 15l/9920 combo on 5s lipo. Great truck, geared for about 50mh it was a blast. Liked to do wheelies, but that is half the fun. I had a single speed gmaxx tranny, no front diff, driveshafts or front center driveshaft. It never broke either...
cool! I'll give it a try and see how light I can bring it... do you think i could get away with a S can motor?
Nah, L can is about the minimum. I would almost say that you may want to go to 5s lipo... But depending on the gearing the 10l on 4s should be fine. At 35mph it will do fine, not sure over that. Feigaos are not that effecient...
