@@RCKnockout oh that’s nice, I want to buy it for my xmaxx, but my friends keep telling me that i shouldn’t because it’s gonna burn esc, and I’m not decided yet. So you think that motor is worth it ?
@@paweszarzec7228 yeah it’s a good motor…a Max 5 Esc would definitely be a better ESC to use with this motor though…It could handle the power a bit better
I was wondering about getting this combo. But many are saying the 1650kv is too much for the xmaxx! What is your opinion and how have your temps been? I want to get the g2 version with this kv for my xmaxx and other rigs!
@@familyrc777 it’s an awesome amount of power…combined with the Max 6 it would get hot though…it’s actually only a 6s rated motor but I’ve run 8s most of the time
@@onemansvideos2134 yeah with the sliding tabs….it’s important to point out it didn’t work correct with the 4985 1650kv motor….. none of the holes on the tabs lined up so I had to drill my own
@@SYST3M_OVERIDE yeah no issue…..I’ve been running it for probably 3 years now…..obviously I don’t run it on the daily or even weekly but I’ve gotten quite a few bashes under my belt with this setup and I can confidently say there’s no issues running it on 8s
@@SYST3M_OVERIDE I don’t remember the brand, it was off of eBay….it didn’t work perfectly though….I had to drill my own holes in the sliding inserts to get it to line up with the motor
Cool X-Maxx video, I miss my old one but plan to get another one after i build my XO-1 and that Hobbywing combo is fast in that truck. It's sad i can't use that combo in my XO-1 and i have to buy that expensive castle combo but that's just what you get owning an XO-1. And i love how you mentioned the honey badger don't care term i used to love that video.
@@RCKnockout It is a really old video but it's super funny, I did fit that Hobbywing combo in my XO-1 and it fit like it was made for it and i might pull it out to see if it fits in my new to me X-Maxx i got a few months ago although i need a new servo and a new motor mount. And if the Max 6\4985 1,650KV works well enough and stays cool enough and doesn't overheat i might not have to go a Max 5 G2\1,250KV combo unless i want to.
I would think you should be able to get to some really cool spots off the beaten path with that Jeep of yours to get some cool bashing / crawling footage. I have a Jeep and am always looking for awesome spots. Just a thought.
That’s true…..but where I live in Iowa…almost everything is farm land and is privately owned so I can’t really go anywhere off the beaten path and explore…basically just state and county parks is where I can go….if I lived out West there would be a ton of places I would be ably to explore
@@RCKnockout I think I broke the servo. I already bought a new metal gear one. Just need to get the time to swap it out then back on the track with it.
Is the max6 holing up with this motor ?
@@paweszarzec7228 yeah it’s still holding up…it does occasionally cut the power on full throttle though

Love the x maxx videos. I have a xmaxx myself. let’s see some more slash 4x4 vids!
Awesome man! I’ll have more Slash 4x4 content coming soon!
what mount you use
eBay special one…cost about $60
@@RCKnockout the one with all the holes on top?

I've got that one I'm just missing the lil tabs that go to it for the motor
@@onemansvideos2134 did you buy it secondhand?
Them tires seam like they work awesome
They do work well for grip….they’re not the best for jumping though
How's the motor temps? Trying to decide if I want to upgrade my 1200kv to the Hobbywing 4985 or 5687.
Yeah temps and everything have been good with this system overall
@@RCKnockout Great to hear the motor can actually do 8s.

You should try a slow motion on a fly by
Slow mo I prefer using for jumps and landings, occasionally I’ll do a slow mo on a flyby though
@@RCKnockout well it would of showed the ballooning of the tires you were talking about
@@daltonboucher8162 that’s true
I’m looking at this motor and the rated lipo cell count is only 3 - 6
Yeah….I run this motor on 8s all the time….haven’t had any issues with mine
Awesome RC done subscribes
Appreciate it!
Oh yes and a thumbs up
Appreciate it bud!
This makes me want to cry. I miss my xmaxx. Mine broke. I'm waiting to fix mine.
Well at least you still got one, just gotta get it fixed….what did you break?
