also 30 pounds max? that eliminates a brushless losi 5ive. But not my losi 5ive buggy:-)

That's an apples to oranges comparison. The mamba max had components with voltage overhead.

In the XLX the components are optimized, and voltage over 6s will pretty much immediately blow the caps.

No over volting these guys.

8S.

Slightly off-topic here, but the new MMX might have some Voltage overhead, Lizard's MMX factory bench log on it showed it was tested up to 32V input; that was without throttle though (see below). My MMX FAT logs were just ~6S, so not sure what's the deal there. Does anyone happen to know the FET rating of the MMX?

I've heard people running the 1/10 Sidewinders on 4S too, which seemed to work if a UBEC was used. Would be nice if MMX could be run on 7S without too much added risk.
