My Maxx Kicks Your Maxx's Ass Build

Wow nice truck! What motor are you using?

[Quattro 83]

I had a Feagio and modded MM in it when it was built (well before the Monster Max was out!), but replaced them ages ago with a Neu 1515 1Y, and an MGM 16018, but they're both in my 8T now.

The Emaxx has been relegated to the cupboard!

As I said, pretty ordinary build, Jordan's and George's and countless others are more bling, and would truely kick it's ass!!!!

Very nice^^.

Thread hijack?

Quattro 83, the title was meant to be a joke. I have seen many of the Maxx's on this site, and I am well aware of the fact that they are amazing trucks and I highly doubt my Maxx could kick the ass of most of the Maxx's on this site.



Anyway, new update, going to mess with some more settings for this 2nd run and see if it helps any.

All connectors will spark- its charging the caps in the Speed control- My ec5's spark just the same as deans but they have a shroud so its not as loud or bright. just try and swap another set of deans in for the ones you have

nope, I meant the current flowing from your battery to your speed control. once you turn on your MM the loadof the switch doesnt change. Like BB16 above stated, all connectors will spark. I guess one should consider connectors "wear item" and replace as needed. Your deans need replacing. Damn I'm good.

And what will you say when I replace them with new connectors and it doesn't help anything?

I really hope that it does fix this problem though. My next order to A-Main will be a bunch of EC5's or Traxxas connectors.

Oh ok. I still prefer the look of the EC5's no that you showed me some pics of them on your truggy. They have a very clean look. And I like the fact that they are bullet connectors in a plastic case, easy to solder.

I would get Traxxas connectors. They are a lot more comfortable, than the EC5's.

And alot less expensive than EC5's too.

Yea and that. The EC5's are only 3.5mm bullets too.

you could always get 6.5 bullet connectors. they will spark just like any others, but they will probably have the least amount of resistance compared to any other connector.

Problem with that is I have no plastic case to put them in to keep them from touching and shorting.
