I didn't run my maxx since my summer vacations But I'm tuning it perfectly for the next session (I hope soon...).

- I replaced the Traxxas drive cups (not sturdy enough for my driving style + lipo setup) by HPI ones : http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...6276&search=Go (add this if you want to use them). Theoretically they are excellent !





- I dismantled all my wheels & tires to tape them and to balance them with the HPP wheel balancer. I've never used such a tool but I wanted to try.





Beautiful and top notch kit with all the info required, as usual with HPP

I noticed all my foams were worn down on the outer side :

(Left : used. Right : new).

The other side isn't as worn but it's not better. So I will tape my Masher tires to avoid that. I ordered new foams and next week if I can I will tape and balance my Mashers.

My maxx looks like this currently :







I weighed it, here are the results FYI :

- Body + Clips : 156g (0.34 lb)
- Protek Lipo : 310g*2 = 590g (1.30 lb)
- Mashers tires + Maximizer rims : 1385g (3.05 lb)
- E-Maxx chassis : 3785g (8.34 lb)

Total w/o lipo : 5326g (11.74 lb)
Total w/ lipo : 5916g (13.04 lb).


To be continued...

Here is my next upgrade :



It's the new HPP wheel hub, soon available. No more slope normally ! I will test it soon (I will post pics at least, my maxx hates winter...).

I'm not really worried by the slight axial slope (look at my driving style...) but I want the best for my maxx
