If ya have problems with the gears as I did with mine (even the hardened hot racing ones) you can get a set of 1.5 mod Gears from GPM and they are outstanding. GPM Pins are the way to go 👍👌It’s way more fun to drive with the non belted tires for sure. Keep Bashin’ Bro✊
Hello, if you put heavy shock oil and spring then it will eventually break the arm.. that is a known problem for Xmaxx and Maxx.. Also this gearing is a much needed upgrade for Xmaxx if you want it to backflip !
AWESOME! Question: that long screw that goes into the suspension arm keeps coming out of the max the front and the back and I have to keep screwing them back in is there anything you recommend? The guy said thread Lock Works for metal but I think it's plastic
Yeah don’t use thread lock on plastic, it eats it away. I’ve seen guys install captured hinges pins. I would remove one of the threaded pin and measure it then see if you can match one up with RPM or GPM.
Was really curious how it would do on 20 46 gearing since I'm planning to get one soon and you just solved my answers 😂 How were the run times on the 5000mAh compared to the 6700mAh? Great video dude 😎🤘
Thank you for watching we appreciate it. A lot of guys will run the high speed gears that come extra with the XMAXX. I did a lot of research to make sure those gears wouldn’t overheat the motor. I heard the 20/46 is good also, and apparently 20/50 is another great option. The 5000 mah LiPos lasted a good 20 of constant runs. Keep in mind they don’t fit very well cause they are not designed for the XMAXX add foam padding.
I spray truck bed Rhino liner on the ramp to give it some grip. Both of the Maxx’s we have still haven’t broken any control arms. Maybe they don’t see a need to make them.
With belted tires you don’t need to vent, you can actually tape up those vent holes on the inside of the wheel. Since the tires don’t expand you don’t need the vent holes.
Get 2 rocket 30 mm fans for the motor, stock fans are trash. Very easy install, you don’t even have to open the receiver box. I know you were trying to keep the weight down but I would definitely invest in aluminum diff covers
@@redbanditracing I have GPM bulkheads front and rear. They are expensive. Amazon has no name brand for 1/2 the price, they say they are 7075, but who knows. I also think the stock esc fan should be 30mm as well not to sure. I ran RPM arm before and had issues bending the CVDS, they have way to much flex esp on hot days. I would go with Traxxas HD arms at least for the lower.
Just a curious question but has your XMaxx had any issues with breaking the center driveshaft I’ve been having issues with mine like crazy and it keeps breaking. I can’t figure out the problem. I was wondering if you were also having any of the same issue ?
@@redbanditracing it’s not grabbing on one side it works for a few take it off a jump it’s only in 2WD it’s almost seems like the drive shaft is 2 short
There are great bash vids out there with bad edits. Vids with great edits but not bashing. You get both here stop finding shit wrong with everything. 😂 great vid love the music
X-Maxx is the original KING. THANK you SO much for this information.
What a beast. Keep sending it.
Looks Great!
Excellent video guys! 👏🏻 keep up the good work

good job bro!
X-Maxx is great basher.

I’ll check those gears out, thank you.

Awesome video once again! Congrats. Quick question. I noticed you use a Thumb adapter on your transmitter. Where did you get those? Thank you

Nice upgrades. What weight oil do u have in ur shocks
70W, doesn’t chassis slap.
@@redbanditracing thank you. Have a nice day 👍
Subscribed 👍👍👍

@redbanditracing Alrighty sounds good, thanks for the info 👌 Will take note of that. Keep on bashing brotha 😎
I wonder why RPM makes arms for the X-Maxx and not for the Maxx. What lining material do you use for your ramp?
I spray truck bed Rhino liner on the ramp to give it some grip. Both of the Maxx’s we have still haven’t broken any control arms. Maybe they don’t see a need to make them.
@@redbanditracing thanks for the info. Can you do standard venting on belted tires particularly the Sledgehammers?
With belted tires you don’t need to vent, you can actually tape up those vent holes on the inside of the wheel. Since the tires don’t expand you don’t need the vent holes.
take your stock esc out and put a max 6 in and you will get back flips all day on 24 pinion and 46 spur gear ..make sure to glue your tires
Nah man there isn't anything wrong with stock, how much more power yall need😅 Then thi gs to breaking and the upgrades will be never ending
Did it ever overheat? Great Vid
Towards the end yes, but it was also high 90’s out.

I’ll check those fans out, send us some numbers for them. I was thinking replacing both upper bulkheads with aluminum next time they break.

What scale is this truck
1/5th
Unbelted tires and high speed gear but that might not work bc it is hot where you live

How is the center driveshaft breaking? Is it bending?
@@redbanditracing it’s not grabbing on one side it works for a few take it off a jump it’s only in 2WD it’s almost seems like the drive shaft is 2 short
It does seem to short but it’s not. Your drive shaft maybe stripped at 1 end.
I’ve had them break a lot at the spindle (breaks inside plastic) and keeps spinning.
Brother: The video might be better with no loud and distracting music.
Could u not watch because of the music 😂
I think this is one of the better audio/music combos tbh… 🤷🏼♀️
Yeah guys great video put i couldn't focus on the moving car with all that music🤣🤣. When i listen to music it needs to be dark so i can focus haha
There are great bash vids out there with bad edits. Vids with great edits but not bashing. You get both here stop finding shit wrong with everything. 😂 great vid love the music
Thank you for the suggestion, already took a poll on this.
