Fact- novak hvmaxx is not hv, its only 4s.
Fact- its old as the emaxx 3906 almost- past its prime and should have been replaced years ago; castle and tekin are way ahead of the game, as are losi and hobby city etc.
Fact- $270 is too much for what you get compared to the MMM systems (power and versatility).
Fact - novak rely on the myth that sensored is best, when it clearly isnt anymore. If only Aveox were still into R/C then they would kick both novak and castles ass's (think sensored neus....).
Fact- I've had both, and I prefer the MMM to the Novak- you just cant run a hvmaxx in anything heavier than a stock emaxx or erevo and expect decent topspeed or power. Wheelies are good upto about half throttle (if that), but I could only manage 20-25mph with sensible gearing to keep the temps in check. Its about time novak pulled their finger out and released a true 1/8 scale system.

I guess it could be considered HV compared to the rest of their systems.

The above statements were 90% opinion. Not saying the opinion is right or wrong, just that it was not all facts.
