My firs brushless monster truck - 06.25.2005, 10:52 AM

Mike, I would like to have an E-maxx with all hop-ups possible, Basic XL 2100( if there is one), 9920, 18 cells pack and all the things that can make the truck work properly. How much will it cost me?:)

Nice to meet you!

Mike, feel like quoting me with a price for an emaxx with only the necessary hop-ups to handle a Lehner Basic XL equivalent of the 10L on 12 cells. Thanks for all your help, you run a truly amazing business.

You can spend $5000 (if not more) if you get the best of the best, no way you mean this, right?

Captain and remix: email me at mike@rc-monster.com and we can discuss some options, pros and cons of each option and settle on the setup that is right for each of you. I do custom packages/truck all the time, so we should be able to work out the details quite quickly. Of course, there are many options to choose from, so some discussion is appropriate.

Captain:
If you have a good radio system/batteries/servo, you could build a rock solid maxx with all the trimmings for quite a bit less than $5000(probably half).

Remix:
The xl2400(10L equivilent) on 12 cells could get by with the stock setup(just add some real wheels and tires). Aluminum bulks would be the first thing I would upgrade, though. the plastic fails pretty quickly if you don't land on the wheels. A good servo and servo saver are also a worthwhile investments(actuially, these would come before the bulks!).

I look forward to the e-mails from both of you!

Well I did calculate all the hop-ups including the Lehner 2240/9 motor and the schulze 40.160 esc and guess what? the price is beyond my meaning. Absolutelt toooooo much for me, but I thought it could be possible to get a good hopped up E-maxx with a 7XL and a 30120 esc from here for a more reasonable price. And mike I truly want to get one, but not pretty soon. I'm only trying to get an Idea about the whole thing and I will surely e-mail you when the time comes.

You don't need anywhere near the 22 series motor. A nice 1930 or 1940 motor will be more than enough, along with a micro 18120 controller or the -soon to be available- MGM controller or Castle controller. I am ready whenevr you are. If you would like, I can put together some sample packages in the meantime.

That is a 16 cell controller right?

@ harlock;

You are planning on making it lightweight and tough?

I believe the MGM will be a 16 cell controller.

If I were to have a large amount of money any time soo then I would really like too make it super tough, super fast, super heavy and all aluminum and titanium, but I guess I should be thankful to make it tough and light for the time being.

Tough and light it the way to go. Lighter weight automatically makes it tougher, too(less inertia when you crash!). My weekly racer is just under 9 pounds RTR and is nearly bulletproof.
