You really don’t understand how helpful these videos really are 😅
Thank you for that little trick with the locknut. Finally had to upgrade the servo and saw your truck to keeping it tight. Thx from the future. Lol
I had a heck of a time getting that steering linkage in at the last step!!
love these old videos the format was completely different so calm
My stock servo stripped out on the 4th drive!!!! New 2085x comes on Monday..thanks for the tutorial!!
Thanks Kevin 👍 I used this video today. I guess they don’t know how to center a servo at the factory while building.
Great heads up on that steering mod, keep em' comin'!
Great tip on that magnet trip man..... We have that trick in the construction trade also ....sometimes darn screws jus keep falling off.. Cheers
Hey Kev I'm just catching up on older videos man love to start up on this for fun
Got one in my Maxx v1. Incredible
Still a rock solid truck
Kevin, Ive been wanting to do a servo swap of some kind for a while. Now, thanks to this video, youve made it much easier. Im looking forward very much to your next video to see if there is an improvement over the 2085 servo. I cant find any specs. on the 2085X, just that its 23% stronger.
23% of shit is still shit! Have you found an answer yet? Im about to have my servo fail and am in need of a proper replacement
Old vid but very helpful, I just got a XMAXX so helps a bunch. 👍
Kevin, your right on the cutting edge. You keep bringing Cool stuff to my attention and then I want to do it to mine as well
Cool to get back to older servos.
i just changed my 2085 to 2085x servo because my 2085 died after having my xmaxx for 2 years, i had to use a washer because the spring pushed the screw head through the plastic, found a longer screw but it was to long had to dremel off a few centimeters, as for the nut on the end option, my rc parts box from my first hobby grade RC (2002), HPI rs4 electric had a nut that worked. man that was a pain, now my xmaxx is back in action just in time for the company cookout at a park.
Thanks for the vid,,just finished the servo swap and did the mod ,,thanks again for the info.!! 👍🇺🇲
Thanks for the walk through! Made my morning repair easier.
Thanks again for the great video Kevin.
Lol thanks for the magnet tip! I have about 10 magnets stuck on my door because my door is metal😂
Excellent video. Helped me a ton with my servo upgrade. 🔥👍👍🔥💯
Love the upgraded servo much better than stock.
Thank u for steering mod I got mine apart now
I put the 2085x servo in mine and I really like it my truck turn in tall grass so much better but i would not use the linkage that came with it . I broke 2 of them i ended up ordering a aluminum one from CrazyRacer on Amazon. I am still waiting on it to get here guess its coming from china. I put the stock one back in and it held up last time i ran the truck. I just thought i would give you the heads up. I really like these videos of you working on your XMaxx i do almost everything you show us so thanks.
Ahh the videos have so much fun and energy now kev 👍👍
I am a big fan!!! I am just getting back in to the RC cars I watch a lot of the videos u make some awesome videos. Keep up the good work 😎👍👍
Another brilliant video Kevin, I loved it like always! Keep em coming 👍
Around 7:20 I knew you saved my brain from hours of torture. You deserve a medal. thank you. My steering was all crappy since my servo upgrade and i couldn't figure out why. Nylon nut upgrade, 16mm bolt, here i come.
Is this due to general wear and tear
What thread size is the bolt?
cheers kev, baught a hoby wing quick run 1060 brushed esc from your shop great!
Whats the speed on these? Traxxas never show that, but all we know that its 450oz, should look into the savox 1230 which is 500oz, and .16sec which is faster than the 2085x i believe and cheaper than the traxxas
I screw up mine I replace my servo but wen I insert the screw in the plastic just give up the screw went true I see your video but it was I little to late for lol I'm ordering the new parts now thanks Kevin for show in us all the important stuff bro thanks.
Thanks for the videos bro
I put the 2085X in my Xmaxx a few months ago and it went unexpectedly. No crash, water etc... bummer!
Kev..what’s your opinion on the 2085X and how well has it held up so far? I just ordered one after stripping out 2 stock servos.
Such a young Kev!!!!
Are you still running this servo Kevin? How is it going mate.
I am new with my xmaxx. What was the advantage to changing the spring. Amd what srip is it? Thanks for your time
Hey Kev, I replaced mine from 2085 to 2085X and i got a problem now the steering/servo is stuck on the right hand side and its my 2nd 2085x that i replaced its getting expensive😔 what do you think is the issue? Thanks in advance
Is ether a part number for the longer screw and nut - or a screw type etc?
Hey do you know if you can replace or upgrade the gears to metal gears I have a Traxxas 2080 servo and wondered if I can upgrade the gears on the inside from plastic to metal gears thanks man I love your video
Buy a better servo. You can get a metal gear servo better than the traxxas 2080 for like 30 bucks
What is that model screw gun? Can't find any like it. Thanks Kevin for all the how to videos!
My X max Doesn’t make the beeping sound anymore do you know what could be wrong Kev thanks for the videos
Had our 8s for a month now, took it out and had our servo burn out, while it was sitting still, weird since a few of the other trucks in country have had the same issue.. Weird
Caused by wheels not being straight when you turn the vehicle on when it is on a surface like carpet. Wheels try to straighten but there is to much resistance.
That is exactly what happened to me too. I made it stay still for 3 min, and plastic gear of servo was smashed. I'm wondering if it goes into "micro" oscillations "left-right" if you leave it still, enough to strip one tooth of the gear, and from there on, it's a spiral of teeth knocking off one after the other...
@@jeanfoutre3620 this just happened to me sitting dtill in the grass for a couple of mins, will open it later and see what broke , did you fix yours by replacing what part?
For a traxxas servo how was that i heard some say it burnt out fast spme liked it. Savox makes good servos. Besides these questions whats the best one for it thats out there. Hope ypu answer all my questions thanks kev.
You need some blue locktite :)
Isnt the green one bearing fit? 🤔
Loctite softens plastic, but you can use super glue/CA, I've been told , and I have with good results.
I do that as well. Works great but does not make the screws impossible to remove.
It an old trick I learned years ago. Thanks for commenting.👍👍
why no locktight on plastic? nice video though. enjoyed your xmaxx series
it can ruin the plastic
Loctite breaks down many plastics, it will ruin that part
Can u do a review on the hobby wing max 8 v3
Im told a bit of nail polish on plastic works as lock tight.
How long did it actually take you to do this repair? Thanks
ALUMINUM CRUSHER not sure, I didn’t time myself. There are a lot of washers you have to be careful of when taking it apart and reassembling it. For me about 90 minutes because I didn’t know what I was doing. Lol.
Great vid kev ,thanks
Nice vid. Good music and not too intrusive. You should become an Amazon affiliate to get a few % on all the sales... cheers
Is the bolt you use kev is m4x16mm or m6x16mm???
yeah im trying to work that out as well? He does say m6 nylon I think.....I picked up an m6 nylon and 16mm screw too fit it but looks alot thicker than the original?
It's a m3x16mm and a m3 nut.
7:00 Steering mods
What is the big advantage of this vs the stock one is it just less likely to wear out or doesn't the stock one have enough power and torque
Honestly 3M heavy duty outdoor 2 sided tape is better then hot glueing and gunning up your rig...... Try it and let me know what you think....
This is off topic of the video but what charger do you use for your lipos?
Great videos!
Hey bud, my servos knackered already, only had xmaxx for bout 2 weeks. Do I have to take the whole front off just to check if the screw had come loose or just take the small light grey bit off to check?
3:37 nice catch!
Whats up with the white zip ties? Im pickin up my xmaxx this weekend so all lil tips of makin it stronger id like to know.
I keep stripping out servo horns with the new servo. Any suggestions ?
I ame about to get a metal servo fore my Xmaxs
Bro how did you take the front end off like that mines don’t do that
are you sure about the size of the M6 nylon nut???? seems to big no?
awsome mate!!!
How does the stock plastic servo horn hold up with the extra torque of the new servo?
it doesn't do well I had to upgrade to a metal servo horn from hot racing
A lot of work just for the servo
Kevin. What adapter do you use for your electric drill/impact to hold the small hex bits?
Ryan Gratland by the looks of it they go straight in. The driver he uses is 1/4 inch drive. So it could be 1/4 inch. That’s my guess
Hi where did you get your hex wrench’s that fit in the dewalt?
Thanks i know what to do know
Hi, I have this same servo and today when I turned on my x maxx, my wheels went hard right instead of center? Any suggestions on why it that?
Watch the video again then
did ya set your end points?
He is so different from now
That was my only let down after spending 1,000 dollars on an rc car. The steering servo on the x-maxx can barely steer on flat ground under it's own weight. It's disappointing really.
What batteries you run in your Xmaxx mate?
New subscriber, love your videos! :).
Mr4 th-cam.com/video/rB7K3H1N0BY/w-d-xo.html
Where did you get the hex bits? I e looked at menards and Lowes
Off Amazon or Ebay duh
What voltage are you running your ESC at to your Servo
This is all I want to know and I can't find the voltage range anywhere.
I would assume its designed to be run at the stock ESC's 6v
IN THE BEGINNING.....
Savox 2290
How old is he ?
are your bits the arrowmax ?
Don Winn his scerwdrivers are arrowmax but his powertooltips are from absima
anyone know where i can purchase motor mount for xmaxx 8s to cater a 2028 motor ? i heard Kerhsaw Designs has closed up shop and i need a mount for a 2028 :S
D Nnyed check out B&M Racing on Facebook, they make some great mounts
1:30 story of my life
When I turn
it on
I prefer the old studio
Maybe it is just me
👌
Can I please have one of your 6s xmaxx or 8s xmaxx please.
Like ur videos but that servo sucks it’s still stock get a reefs or savox
Mine will not come apart 😡
got 1 and lasted 2 months
The 2085x only lasted 2 months?
@@LeftyRC yep
@@LeftyRC got a savox 46 kg now.
@@diesel66pe32 what servo is it? what model
@@jaseduar SW1212SG Savox
Lol can I put this in my 1/10 scale rc car ?
The Traxxas aftermarket servos are just a load of overpriced rubbish. Put in a standard servo.
They could have made the servo swap easier. I’m going to hate the day I have to change it out.
