Brushless E-maxx vs. brushless Aftershock? - 09.28.2008, 10:35 AM

I am having these 2 cars in my garage, and I have one issue.

The E-maxx is hopped up on nearly any part of the truck, and is running af HV6,5 and 2 x 7,4 maxamps 6000 mah. lipo.

The Aftershock have the Finedesign conversion with an XLT1 motor and Castle Hydra 120 esc.

The Aftershock launches reaaly powerfull and have a high topspeed, but is quite easy to keep on all 4 wheels.

The E-maxx also lauches real powerfull, but wheely at half throttle or so. I have tried to loosen the slipper, but then it just spins around, and launches quite slow.

Do you guys know what could be the problem, cause it is rather anoying riding on 2 wheels all the time. I guess another slipper could help, but another thing I have thought about is the tires. I am runnning stock on the Aftershock, but on the E-maxx I run Proline 40 series mashers. Could that be it?

You can see the trucks here:

Its the finger! I dont think you necessarily have a problem. Its just an inherent side effect of brushless in an older EMaxx. The wheelbase is fairly short, and the power wants to lift the front end off the ground.
Get a wheelie bar for it. The Traxxas one for the E-Maxx works pretty nice for me.
Or try getting a little more precise with your slipper adjustment.


Losi 8T 1.0, Savage Flux - XL style, LST XXL, Muggy, 3.3 E-Revo Conversion and sitting outside 425hp, 831 Tq Dodge Ram Turbo Diesel. It SMOKES

Ofcourse the short wheelbase is one issue, I hadn´t thought of that. I am running the old G-maxx chassis without the extension. Maybe the extension would help a bit. Otherwise I´ll try the whelliebar.

Thanks for the reply.
