  • Here's a brutal test of the Sledge with the prototype reverse placement M2C Racing motor mount and huge Max6 Hobbywing combo. The truck feels like it's finally reached maximum potential with torque for days!!! Big thanks to Mitch and Avery for completely transforming this platform.

    In case anyone was curious, temps with the set-up were great 😍. I did get a 170F on the motor at one point, but I was hammering it in extreme heat and fine, slippery dust. Overall temps were 150F motor and around 125-130 tops ESC. Unfortunately, the rock jambs likely contributed to a damaged rear ring gear. I heard slipping and swapped in a machined input and ring between locations. Mesh is still 100% solid thanks to the M2C mount 😍. LOVE this Max6 combo!!!! Same setup as my Fireteam 6s. 🍻

      @@haroldrivera3640 my best guess is there's a crack somewhere in the diff case or bulkhead allowing the gears to push apart or get out of alignment. I'd also check your bearings in case one is starting to seize. Cracks can be difficult to see. You might have to flex the plastic in your hands to expose a fracture line. If this is a repeating theme I can guarantee it's either a bad bearing or a busted bit of plastic. 😎💪👊👊

      hey rich, if you fall into issues with the diff crown and pinion gears, i believe the bulkheads flex under load, afterall theyre very thin plastic. especially around the bearings. i went with some vitavon bulkheads and diff gears, havent stripped a gear since.

    • @richduperbash2966
      @richduperbash2966  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, I turned my punch up to max 5. Make sure to calibrate your controller to the ESC under throttle setup to assure you're getting full throttle, brake...etc. On that note, if reverse seems faster than expected, it's possible the motor direction is reversed. I've had that happen before where I had to reverse motor direction and reset the controller direction too. 😎💪👊👊

      In the stock position, I simply replaced the VXL for the Max6 with 30lb mounting tape and a zip tie (made a small cut in the bottom plastic to fit the tie under). For the reverse motor mount set-up, I bolted my Max6 onto this M2C ESC mount up front. m2cracing.net/shop/shop.php#!/M2C-1452-REVERSE-MOTOR-MOUNT-KIT-FOR-S-SERIES-TRUCKS/p/488858460/category=136127921

      The Kraton EXB is still my favorite when compared to the Sledge. The Sledge does handle differently, perform impressively, and take a great beatdown with the proper upgrades. The transmission feels slightly smoother in my opinion, but the added cost to buy and upgrade the Sledge over a K6s EXB is significant and it's debatable if there's any or enough reason to make that choice. 🍻😎💪👊👊

    • @richduperbash2966

      I've only been through a couple ring gears and it was because either the diff cover or bulkhead had cracked allowing the gear to shift under power. I replaced the diff cover with a Hot Racing one and also Hot Racing alloy hinge pin plate (below the plastic skid plate) front and rear. That helps strengthen the bulkhead from the bottom. 🍻

      @@timbootz8894 if you’re looking at a 2:1 ratio between spur and pinion, with a 50t spur, your pinion would be 25, which I think is quite large considering the available and adjustable space on the sliding motor mound.

      None of the electronics run cool when you run really hard. I've found the 4985 to be more efficient than my Hobbystar 4092's though, especially in hot weather. The Sledge drivetrain feels smoother than the EXB (in my opinion). Tough call on getting a Sledge 🤔. Definitely an expensive venture to make solid. It is a pretty tough truck, but an M2C chassis and mount is a must for harder bashing. 😎💪👊👊
