Double SCT Emaxx - 12.15.2010, 04:38 PM

Double SCT Emaxx
In my defense I never tried the double VXL's back when allot of guys were making those. I thought I would try it with some new technology. It took off 4oz by swapping out the stock brushed motors,esc and radio box. RTR now it's around 10.5lbs.

Looks clean :-) how's it run? Startup smooth?


If I could only draw what I see in my head, then afford to build it, and finaly get to play with it...

Peace!

Symmetry? More bec amps, less wires and anymore one of these rx are cheaper than buying two y cables.
It runs good, turns like crap. 18/62 on 3s.

Yeah, I can do some video.

Any update? How are the temps? I know the motors are incredible but the escs may get a bit warm in that setup. I love my sct combo in my SC10

Yes, I was waiting for the weekend to shoot some vids.
After 10+ minutes and 3s 6ah I got the motors up to 115-118*F, and the escs were 125-130*F ambient was 40*F. 21/63 on savage X stock tires, Decent speeds, and lots of drifting type wheel spin. Second trip I took the camera, ran it for awhile in the grass got some video, then I made the stupid decision to jump a stock EMAXX. Testing ended quickly after that.



In conclusion Don't jump a stock EMAXX.

Could have told you that. You'll snap the rear tower everytime. RPM tower will take care of that, temps look good though.

LoL, Bent the little crappy rustler shock shafts on it also. It was collecting dust after the last tower repair like two years ago. I never considered rpm towers thanks! It was fun to drive a MT again.

I've had three E-maxxs, two bought new. I got about three runs out of the stock tower, with the stock brushed motors before it snapped. I have put the RPM one on all of them and never had another problem. MTs are fun to drive, I just got a Savage Flux about a month ago and have been having a blast with it in the snow
