    What are your thoughts on older trucks? Speaking of older trucks, I have a new project on the way! Stay “tuned”! …literally!

    And the E-max is Still going!!! Won that round!!! 😜 Got to run the Emaxx on 6S, that’s when it starts leaving the rest in the dust!!! 65+ mph on the side of the box it comes in, I think the ERevo is the only other one, not sure if that’s considered a monster truck though. I own the original 2010 Emaxx Brushless 3908 (Silver). 1/10 scale with a Castle Creations Momba Monster ESC and NeuCastle 1515 1y 2200kv Motor!!! Scary Fast, Scary Fun!!! ☮️

      I think ERevo said 70+ on the box if I’m not mistaken! Of course the xo1 says 100+ but those cars aren’t easy to drive

      I have the 3908 e-maxx too built not bought, couldnt find one to buy so built one from new parts. All steel driveshafts and axles, Proline trenchers 3.8 wheels RPM arms bulkheads and true track for the rear. the usuall upgrades 150amp esc and 6s they are stupid fast not very durable though. Need the RPM arms and driveshafts straight of. Use mine as a gentle basher now had t-maxx also 2.5 and 2.5R

    The servo's could be fighting each other. They need to be sync'd?

    • @PigglyWigglyDeluxe
      @PigglyWigglyDeluxe  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yeah there is a turnbuckle that joins them together and sometimes I need to adjust it.

      On my E-MAXX, I replaced both servos with one powerful servo, it did the trick.

      Those are neat for sure! I prefer the simplicity of one motor myself though

      I still have mine, but the arms broke, but fortunately. ebay has replacements made by rpm. Rpm is a good choice for replacement parts.

    What does the longer bellcrank turnbuckle do?

    • @PigglyWigglyDeluxe
      @PigglyWigglyDeluxe  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Gives you more room to fit a larger turnbuckle instead of using the shorty tiny one

    Shame Traxxas did away with the agressive V treads of the original tmaxx, those were the best.

      @PigglyWigglyDeluxe  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      You can still buy them separately! Part number 5171 they are a standard 3.8” so any 3.8” rim will work! I have mine glued up to ERevo 2.0 rims but I do wish they came preglued on a 3.8” rim with 17mm hex.

    I think the E-maxx is cool, but the maxx is much more durable and you can easily get parts. but a second hand E-maxx can be had for a 1/3 of the maxx price

      Yep, and I bought a few for my 3 e-maxx and i had a friend do nice paint jobs on them.
