Evan, I was not able to pull full throttle due to lack of traction. I was over half throttle, though and had to let off in an attempt to keep it fairly straight.
Norbert,
I was using a Lehner basicxl 2400 motor and 18.5 volt (5s) LiPo batteries. What driveshaft are you breaking? A wheel shaft (diff to wheel)? I was actually using the stock plastic sliders on the e-maxx we are speaking of. My truck is just under 8 pounds RTR, though.

I am constantly breaking the MIP front drive shaft from the transmission to the front diff. I tried using the plastic ones and I snapped them on the first run. Start to twist a little but snapped and the base where it connects to the yoke.

[RC-Monster Mike]

I use steel dogbones in the center. For the front, the Monster Pirate front center dogbone works.

[rc4x4nut]

Thanks Mike. I have to keep an eye out on ebay. My LHS hates ofna therefore they dont order or stock ofna.

[RC-Monster Mike]

Probably any front 1/8 buggy center bone would be a close enough size to make it work. The Monster Pirate is a reworked 1/8 buggy from years ago.

hey Lou has the track running counter-clockwise now.
If the double on the straight is still in the same place you'll have 2/3 of the straight to build up steam. I wonder where it will touch down now?:-)

[RC-Monster Mike]

It tends to drop fast after it hits the ceiling!

[auto2]

well maybe with 40MPH of forward momentum it won't go up twards the roof so soon.LOL!
I just may have to get one...Hummm:-)

[RC-Monster Mike]

If there is less pitch on the jump, I am quite sure I can land in the pits!

I accidentally took out a lightbulb tonight with the gmaxx. HotnCold and I both put on a little show with brushless LiPo power and we have a little video as well. It should show up in the video vault in the next day or so.

what lipos do you run on what chassis (guess gorilla carbon)

[RC-Monster Mike]

The truck I ran is a generation 1 purple G-maxx chassis with a Lehner basic xl 2400 motor and 5s Kokam 3200 LiPos.

[HotnCold]

Alum Gmaxx chassis, 10L, 5s 3200's, busted a$$ revo rims.... Man those revo rims looked nice but didnt hold up very well....
