I am little confused the comment you may about to much power 800kv. Why because it Brakes to much? What is the different between stock motor? I am about to build my to 800kv with max five.
Really want to do the max six with an 800 KV motor so I can hit 50mph off road. Also, I’m in a wheelchair so I want to keep the ability to self right. Is there anyway to do that and still keep all the telemetry add-ons that I got for my X- Maxx? And do I need stronger diffs? Would love to see a full rebuild videoI actually took mine apart for the first time and can’t remember where all the bolts of wut sizes go lol. I don’t know if I want to do 1.5 gearing just because I’m not really sure what the benefits are. And they are pretty loud since they don’t fit underneath the gear cover. It would be cool to see a video on that as well. Love watching, new subscriber. Take care mate 🍻
Interested in the gearing and the motor mount.. hopefully one that still uses the pins for sitting gear mesh.. I say that cuz I feel theres not enuf room to slide it for manual gear mesh .. thanks
I no longer sell those parts anymore. Or use them. If you use mod 1.5 gears you need a bigger motor mount. Then you adjust up and down for the gear mesh
@@pnwRCMADNESS well im mainly interested in putting the 800kv motor in it and just using stock gears is that possible? Why are u no longer using them? Did u go back to stock?
I would love to see a rebuild 😃 i want to understand how i cant this thing to the beach and be able to not see rust aftwrwards. Would be pretty cool to see a full rebuild and washing procedure's of it!
Questions? I just got the Maxs 5 myself. Do you order yours stuff on WFO? What is the best 800kv or 1100kv for speed runs or bashing? And gears to? Thanks
Thanks for tuning in brother!! I do actually, their stuff is great! I’ve had both and like the 800kv. It doesn’t get hot and I can run the gearing really high or low. Appreciate you watching 100% tell wfo I sent ya please😊
Its crazy how much power goes into these motors/escs nowadays. I run the max6 on stock 8s motor and it feels plenty fast for me but more is always better in my book lol
Thank you!! Hope you subscribed too🤘🏼💯 you’ll love a bigger motor I just went back to stock though because of all the extra weight required to run mod motors
Hello I'm thinking about getting the max 5 with 800 KV I was thinking about gear ratio 3030 what do you think and loctite what do you use I was going to use the blue and do you use it to hold the motor down to thank you.
Hello!! That’s an excellent motor esc combo. And the 30/30 will be perfect as well. I use the brand “Locktite” blue. And I use a dab on both grubs screws and a small small dab on the motor shaft. You may have to use a puller to get the pinion off when you want to change it. But that’s better than it flying off and ruining other things in the truck. Keeps it super secure
Okay thank you yeah I actually do the same thing on my shaft too with my other RCS just want to make sure I want to get everything just right thank you
Hey Chris, I just installed mamba x , 800 kv. I had a vitavon 25/35 1.5 mod, and it wasn't fast at all , haha more for 1100 kv. So I ordered 30/30, plus I can mix n match 30/35 too. My question is will the mamba x handle 30/35? Or is 30/30 what I'm looking for?
Hi, and thanks for tuning in! 💯🤘🏼 to be honest I bought the spur gear and pinion together. The spur came on a new shaft. I’m not exactly sure the stock will work or not. Although I could check that out and get back to you
Those look like indestructible gears, where did you buy them from? Although I am currently not an X-Maxx owner, I am seriously thinking of buying one. It looks like a beast of a truck. I was disappointed by the Kraton 8S, that is why I am leaning tours an X-Maxx.
The gears I sold for awhile. Until I had customers break them and the manufacturer never provided any kind of warranty. The kraton 8 has its own special place and is kinda a snail. You can’t go wrong with the Xmaxx that’s for sure. Beat basher ive ever had💯👍
Hey I literally just bought the new x maxx today. I was thinking of installing the 8s castle creations xlx 2028 -800 kv combo . I just spent $1600.00 on the truck , 2 batteries and the live dual charger. I really don’t want to cut my top brace to do this . I squeezed the mmx 1515 -2200kv in my slash without cutting anything. Can you give me any ideas ? Thank you
Hello! And thank you for tuning in first of all💯🤘🏼 ? what is your plan with the truck? How do you intend on using it? Then I can recommend something. Cutting the brace isn’t a big deal. It’s what I did to put my max6 in. I’ll be making another video soon installing a new motor mount
pnw RC MADNESS I plan on just bashing with it . No speed run x maxx. I did look on the traxxas site and that top brace is a $8.00 part . But I also found an aftermarket aluminum top brace with an esc mounting plate . I just really want a badass X-Maxx that’s fast . Thank you for your reply. I honestly bought this thing because I wanted something big enough to the castle creations system in .
Ok, if you plan on just bashing it. Stick with the stock motor for now and buy a hobbywing max6. My stock Traxxas esc caught fire and was about $450 total in damage. Traxxas helped me tremendously. The bigger kv motors are fun and fast, but they come at a cost high dollars and added weight. The weight part is the one that slows the truck down. I once had a fully modded Xmaxx. Long story short I like it lighter with less aluminum parts way way more
You will like the castle 800 motor and esc. They are both very nice. Just in my opinion the motor add about a pound and for me it effects the performance ALOT. And going fast is only fun for me so much. But for speed runs definitely would buy a bigger motor
Big question. What was your top speed and could you still wheelie through the whole Power Band with 3030 gear. I think I'm 2330 and I can't keep the front end down and I top out at probably 50
Hi! And thanks for tuning in! Please consider subbing if you like ? I actually got rid of that setup and ow run the castle mmx8 and the 2028 800kv motor. I run 35t pinion and 25t spur. If you check out my other vids you’ll see my new Xmaxx build. It’s a sensored setup💯🤘🏼🚀 happy thanksgiving and happy bashing 😊
Lots of after market parts. I really enjoy the truck but its not as functional as before IMO. Thank you for tuning in, i appreciate it a lot. Please don't forget to subscribe.
I just installed my first 30 35 geras on my x max in right away in my first punch the both tooth on pin and spur broke is it just how it is with big gears 😒need help guys what did ido wrong should I go with a belt drive
Hi! Thank you for tuning in! The gears are awesome you just need to have the correct mesh is all and they should never break. Did you consider subscribing? Find me on Facebook and I can help you mesh your gears properly. Have a great day💯🤘🏼
Hi i wanted to ask what is the best setup for a bashable xmaxx that is very effecient and has enough power that you wouldnt hold full throttle every were. Thanks
Nice. I'm assuming that you don't put loctite on those bolts holding the motor to the motor mount? The adjustment bolts? I was curious since it's metal to metal. Thanks! I'm waiting for my gears /motor mount /ESC /radio /etc 👍
Hello, I have a x-max electronics or stock but I would like to get more performance out of the stock motor and change out the ESC to a hobby wing max 6 what gearing will be the best setup for that with no heating issues thank you?
@Robert Laura- hi, and thanks so much for tuning in!! That is a good move getting the max6 I would start with 20/50. That will be great gearing for bashing around and not overheating! Stay tuned for more Xmaxx vids in the near future
Yeah and you better go to that website soon as possible cuz they never have anything in stock think I'll start making this stuff for a living sell it it sells better than gasoline it looks like
@Ed Baroutijan- thank you for tuning in and the kind words! The gear cover was just a stock cover. I just cut it to fit around the gears. The plastic is soft enough, I used my exacto knife is all😊🤘🏼
Ah... that’s a Gpm cover if I remember correctly . Honestly I can’t remember exactly... but here is a gpm link. www.google.com/search?q=traxxas%20xmaxx%20gpm%20aluminum%20gear%20cover&tbm=shop
Hello! I have since sold this setup. But it was pretty good for about 65mph. And the 1100 kv motor got too hot running a max6 ive since swapped to a castle creations mmx8 and an 800 kv now hitting about 75
Do you actually run this or is it like one of those engines they use to teach mechanics...looks all nicr and shiny etc but never gets used in anger 🤣🤣 Thats a seriously great machine...and more than that, that's a brilliant tutorial vid. Having forked out on a 5iveT you've got me hankering on one of these too...hahahaha keep up the great work fella 👍🙏😎
Frikton Rc I do run this for sure!! Just haven’t really bashed it to hard like it was when it was stock form. Thank you so much for watching and your nice comment!🤙 I had a 5t for awhile and sold it off. Too big for me all round I guess. Please subscribe for more brother!! It helps me a lot to make more videos 💯🤜🏻🤛🏻
It is true that those gears are expensive but its even more expensive when you take into account an lack of the cush drive which does serve a purpose in protecting to an extent The 3 Differentials & then not forgetting, increased power? sure Xmaxx is a balancing act but always ALWAYS has to be repaired! #facepalm
The gears are very expensive! But if you want to keep the kush drive you can still do that as well and buy mod 1.5 gears. It’s really up to how you want to drive your truck. I have very good luck without the Cush drive. Never really have any problems to be honest
WFO gear company is pathetic. Small company in Washington state. They don’t respond to emails period. No phone number to call them. Spend your money somewhere else. Last 14 months completely out of stock for their gears. Their steel manufacturer shut them down.
Hello, those gears were alldayrc. They are out of the uk but ripped me off. I have gears and motor mounts coming soon to pnwrcmadness!! Thanks for tuning in😊

One more question who makes your motor mount and chassis brace is that n2c
Yes sir! Xmaxx time! This will definitely be pulled back up when I do my change in gearing. Perfect 👌
What’s been your luck with the steering servo? Still stock?
Good stuff. PROPS!
I am little confused the comment you may about to much power 800kv. Why because it Brakes to much? What is the different between stock motor? I am about to build my to 800kv with max five.
All I did was to remove the stock center brace to install my gears and set the mesh.
Really want to do the max six with an 800 KV motor so I can hit 50mph off road. Also, I’m in a wheelchair so I want to keep the ability to self right.

What is wfo? My original speed controller failed. Local hobby store recommended a max 6. Can you weigh on on this? My truck is stock besides tires
Hello, i will soon be carrying pnwrc xmaxx motor mounts and also mod1.5 gearing. Stay tuned!
??
Max6 will work perfect!!
Hi waiting on my hobbywing 1100kv do I need a different spur shaft or can I use the stock 1 I have
So you're running a 30 pinion and 30 spur? I want to do this upgrade and don't know what gears to get.
Its crazy how much power goes into these motors/escs nowadays. I run the max6 on stock 8s motor and it feels plenty fast for me but more is always better in my book lol
Honestly! I’ll probably sell this truck or keep it and get another stock truck. They are much better imo in stock form🤷♂️
Max6 is definitely more than good enough also💯💯
Keep it and get another. You got to much time, money, and passion into that one lol and yeah the max6 really woke it up with 20/50 mod 1 gearing
Hey I'm new to the hobby and trying to learn as much as I can. So I can change to a max 5 or 6 and keep my motor stock and it won't overheat?
Yeah just have to solder battery connectors on. Theres many videos of the install i think pnw has one as well
Where did you get the top Aluminum brace?
Very good video here!
I just put a 980KV motor in my X-Maxx.
Might need to swap to this gear ratio.
Thank you!! Hope you subscribed too🤘🏼💯 you’ll love a bigger motor I just went back to stock though because of all the extra weight required to run mod motors
Hey I’m bout to buy this motor combo in wfo, what gears ratio would you recommend on speeding bashing and jumping ? Thanks
I would go 25/30 or 30/30.
Thanks for tuning in brother 🤘🏼💯
Hello I'm thinking about getting the max 5 with 800 KV I was thinking about gear ratio 3030 what do you think and loctite what do you use I was going to use the blue and do you use it to hold the motor down to thank you.

Can you send me a link to those gears plz ?
Nice, you don't know how bad I want to put the max5 in my 8s kraton
Get er done son. I run max6 in my xmaxx on stock 8s motor. Runs great
Glenn!! The Max5/800kv combo is an absolute beast!! 💯 you won’t regret the decision at all🤜🏻🤛🏻 thank you for always tuning in, it means a bunch 💪
Hello, when I see this kind of assembly I wonder what the vehicle is for driving on what type of terrain?
Do u have to change the spur shaft as well when changing to MOD 1.5 gears or do u just keep the stock
Hi, and thanks for tuning in! 💯🤘🏼 to be honest I bought the spur gear and pinion together. The spur came on a new shaft. I’m not exactly sure the stock will work or not. Although I could check that out and get back to you
So I just found out you can modify the stock shaft. Just takes a bit of work. You’ll need to grind a flat spot

It is true that those gears are expensive but its even more expensive when you take into account an lack of the cush drive which does serve a purpose in protecting to an extent The 3 Differentials & then not forgetting, increased power? sure Xmaxx is a balancing act but always ALWAYS has to be repaired! #facepalm
