Looks good Matt, glad you got all of the kinks worked out!

Ah! That picture really messed with my eyes. I cant wait to see video of it in action! Do you have any preorder openings or did you sell out? This really makes me want to see the nitro crap out of my t-maxx.

Sweet, I have a pair of built maxx front and rear assemblies with lst diffs in them. Nothing exotic but would be a nice stock based setup to evaluate. Diffs are strong enough to handle power (1521 1y on 6s or the plett big maxx on 5s?) and still make a light truck. Much better chassis than the stock 3905 chassis I was going to use!!!

That is a stunner for sure- shame Mike doesnt pick up the rights to the design and sell it as the RC-Monster Emaxx chassis conversion, or sumat like that...

I still think you should of redesigned it so the motor and diff would be up front. The way I see it the maxxler is going to be a wheely king. Even with a extended g-maxx chassis with set backs I have a hard time keeping the front down with the motor in the middle and the design of that chassis is definatly not going to help. Even with a center diff the front is still going to unload and cause excessive wheel spin. . It is definatly a nice looking chassis and a but the design is wrong imho. I say you should take video of it on a track and prove the design before taking these guys money. I am sure people would be pissed if it didnt work right and I know from previouse transactions with you you wont give them a refund. So instead of tarnishing your reputation more than it allready is do the right thing and test it before you sell it.

I did consider that point.....But,milloions and millions of r/c monster trucks have been produced with the POWER PLANT in the rear(tmaxx,savage,lst,etc) and they have all turned out FINE!! If you cant drive it and keep the wheels on the groung one can install a wheelie bar!....SIMPLE FIX!

This truck is more of a COLLECTORS ITEM than a RACE RIG. It is not an ASSOCIATED rc8t with a million dollars worth of R&D that has been tested by Pro r/c racers.....R/C is just a hobby for me.....I do it for fun!!!!!

People seem to LOVE the design!!
Go to Hobby Town if you want to be a sheep!!You will not find this at any local hobby shop!!

The overall theme in great and looks bitchen. But its function will be minimal at best. So its really design to not run and be a shelf queen is what your saying. Other than great machine work there is no testing or r&d on the design. Sheep! if I remember correctly Sheep like grass and it wasnt to long ago you were sporting your lhs integy clad t-maxx trucks. What fun is it sitting on a shelf LOL! You need to let people know before they buy it is was designed to be a shelf queen. That way there is no disapointments.
