Yes thank you! I missed it initially but then learned it while replacing the bearings on my bandit so I’ll need to go add them to the XMaxx. Thank you!
Building mine as we speak as I’m watching this. My setup is bigger, so I had to modify the chassis to bury the esc. Not big into having the esc sit high. Top heavy and susceptible to damage. GREAT VIDEO!
I mesh it as close as possible spinning full circle to make sure there is a very small amount of play on all teeth and check squareness that way. If you have a tight spot, need to check into it.
Dude this is a absolutely epic build brother. Not many ppl have a big block 800 kv castle coke can powering their Xmaxxs 😂. My brother done a upgrade like this to his Xmaxx but it's a 1100 kv castle and it's insane. I can only imagine what's it's like in person with the 800kv
@@GoKaioken This is what I use. It's amazing! And it can even run off lipo batteries when you are in the field and something comes unsoldered. I've done it many times! www.ebay.com/itm/184262012385
I run 30/35 with this system and I love it! I highly recommend you at least Velcro those batteries in too, those hinged battery holders will fail in a wreck due to chassis flex and batteries will go flying lol!
Oh crap lol okay I’ll look into strapping it down lol! My gearing was way too aggressive and I bent some driveshafts and snapped a diff cup in half so I’ve made some fixes, put some drive cup sleeves on and reduced to a 23/30 gear ratio.
Okay I was just looking for the default settings of this motor but I learned that you are a true EL-car owner. Nitro was 90% fixing and 10% driving... el is different but you're going 100% on the driving :S
You can just plug up the temp wire and coil it up in the rx box 🤔 no need for it with a sensored setup or a huge motor? Or just use a temp gun to monitor. Is that correct thinking?
Nice build. On my spur , the grubs didn’t hold and it spun on the shaft first try up the road. I used lock tite as well. I’m running 30/33 800kv max5. Same blue HD cover. M2C brace and esc holder. Do I need red lock tite? What did you use. My mesh sounded just like yours. Flawless and that little noise
Nice, but honestly I don't think I'll ever do this. If I'm messing up stuff in my drivetrain with just the stock motor and Max 6 esc, I can only imagine what I would do with all that extra power. I run my truck hard, jump on concrete, the skatepark, do backflips off fence and land on concrete, do big jumps off my ramps and other crazy stuff. 😂
Haha no worries! So far I’ve had to go into the app and reduce the power to 60%. I’m also getting a smaller pinion and doing 23/30 ratio instead of 30/30.
@@GoKaioken As you can see, I've changed my mind! But I do have a stock xmaxx if I feel like looking for insane jumps 🤣. I'm actually comparing my new stock xmaxx against the upgraded ones. It should be interesting.

Just double check the male/female. My shop did it for just $10. Good luck!
@@GoKaioken No prob. Yeah I do have a few around. I have the same charger so that's why I want to go that route if/when I decide to put that much power in my truck I want to use the OSE 8's instead of the TRX.
Pro tip my man, use a strip of paper and run it between the spur and pinion. That will set your mesh. You want it to make the paper nice and imprinted, but not puncture.

When you say the wiring you need, are you referring to the motor wires, ESC wires, wires for servo? If you have the Castle motor then maybe check their website. I’d be happy to help, I just need more specifics.

Are you in columbus also? I have a yeti xl with a tekin t8 2000kv and rx8 combo running on 6s. I've been looking at getting a t8 1350kv but can't find anywhere the reason why people run a lower kv rating on heavier trucks. I can wheelie and tip back when punching the throttle so I have torque.

I am not overheating or anything just trying to figure out why people run a lower kv on these 1/6th ish scales trucks. Thanks for your help.
I’m in WV but family from Ohio. You have the right idea in that the lower kv has more torque and runs cooler. But if you aren’t running into heat issues then I’d stick with what you have.
@@GoKaioken awesome thanks for the reply.. no heat issues and it's pretty quick.. I haven't clocked it but I feel like it can't handle much more then what I'm giving it.

I’ll throw the 35-35 in the xlx2 1100 . All wfo . I really appreciate all the help with it . I wish I could upload some pictures of it so you could see . It’s so pretty.
The whole reason why I watched this video was to see how your mounted the ESC because I want to get one of these and use the stock motor and you took it to a shop to be installed LOL
I used a 3D printed mount. The shop just soldered it up for me. Since then I’ve learned how to solder. I’m also using a different mount and an XLX2. Let me know if you have any questions.
Yes, if you are keeping the stock motor it will fit just fine in the stock location. This video is a full motor and ESC upgrade. If you’re looking for just the ESC upgrade you may want to look elsewhere. I got the XLX2 for more power and better heat management.
Yeah I didn’t have issues with the Max6 but it seemed really close to the stock ESC. And the castle motor and ESC is sensored which helps with cogging from low throttle inputs - just makes for a smoother ride
@@GoKaioken the connectors on esc are trx. Is there an adaptor for trx to xt 60 or xt90 to connect to lipo batteries which have xt60 or xt90 connectors?

Thanks man! I really like the sensored system though. Do you think the XLX2 might be better? Hobbywing isn’t sensored at the moment with the Max 5 right?
the only thing im hating in the rc cars is that if any car you buy example this xmaxx if you put a faster pinion you cant bash it they say cause it makes it each the pinions and spur gear and the electronics would over heat they say. isnt there a way to make the xmaxx faster example without making the electronics suffer when bashing? i wanna upgrade my max to run 50 mph when i get it BUT without the fear of ruining the electronics when bashing. i hate driving in a straight line
Here is what you do, you gear it for the speed you wanna hit, but then use a transmitter where you can dial back the throttle percentage. When you go for speed, turn it to 100%, if you’re bashing around, turn it to 70%. This is the only compromise UNLESS you gear down.
I'll never understand why you guys run 800kv Slow. Makes no sense that's just a big ass generator when you let off the throttle going back to the ESC for nothing have to run 12S and gear it 2 to 1 to get any power. Usable power use a big can at least 1700kv more like 2500kv to 3000

Thanks man! I really like the sensored system though. Do you think the XLX2 might be better? Hobbywing isn’t sensored at the moment with the Max 5 right?
U should get a good solder kit and teach urself it’s a great thing to no
I’ve tried and I do a decent job with smaller connectors. These 8mm ones kick my butt though lol
the only thing im hating in the rc cars is that if any car you buy example this xmaxx if you put a faster pinion you cant bash it they say cause it makes it each the pinions and spur gear and the electronics would over heat they say. isnt there a way to make the xmaxx faster example without making the electronics suffer when bashing? i wanna upgrade my max to run 50 mph when i get it BUT without the fear of ruining the electronics when bashing. i hate driving in a straight line
Here is what you do, you gear it for the speed you wanna hit, but then use a transmitter where you can dial back the throttle percentage. When you go for speed, turn it to 100%, if you’re bashing around, turn it to 70%. This is the only compromise UNLESS you gear down.
Hey how’s it running ? Any new news ?
Running really well, about to put an XLX2 in it though once it comes in the mail 😁
@@GoKaioken I have 2 with the mmx8s and 2 with the xlx2 . My xlx2’s are super fast .
Do you see a big difference?
@@GoKaioken wow !!!! 35/35 gears crazy dude .
@@GoKaioken did you see the green Xmaxx that I did a video on? I figured it out. But I was getting a binding.
1 to turn 2 to burn homie
those traxxas chargers suck i got rid of it right away
Has worked for me for over 2 years with no issues.
O-H
I-O!
I'll never understand why you guys run 800kv Slow. Makes no sense that's just a big ass generator when you let off the throttle going back to the ESC for nothing have to run 12S and gear it 2 to 1 to get any power. Usable power use a big can at least 1700kv more like 2500kv to 3000
Lol dude it’s got torque for days. To each their own.
Pull out some Teeth now....
