5 Best Upgrades for the Traxxas Maxx

[@maherkahala5269]

[@V8chump]

Let’s see some bashing with a variety of cars! I haven’t seen you bash in a while, always nice to see some bashing on your older RCs

[@BlakeBeardsley]

Thanks for the video! Just got the Maxx a couple weeks ago. First rc car I've had in 30 years. It's awesome! I broke a couple parts within the first 20 minutes and had to wait for replacement parts. But since then I've been much harder on it and had nothing break. Got the wide kit on it. Been hopping between your site and my local hobby shop for parts. Getting new proline tires and gear delivered from you guys later today. Thank you again for all your great videos! I've learned all sorts of ways to dump $ into this new hobby. 🤣 Quit nicotine recently and this has been a great distraction. Granted, when I broke it within 20 minutes I almost lost my mind, but again, much better since then.

[@AMain_Hobbies]

Heck yeah man! Quit some bad habits, pick up some good ones. Happy to hear you're back in r/c and driving; good for you Blake! -Brett

[@RCWithAaron]

Great video and explanation of upgrades & noting that you don't HAVE to upgrade! I see SO MANY new people buy a brand new car and the first thing they do is ask what do they upgrade, never have driven the car...

[@Ryan96se]

I have performed all of these upgrades to my Maxx. I would like to add that the control arm hinge pin kit using hex screw is also a nice upgrade as the stock pins tend to back out when bashing. I have not broken anything on my Maxx. It is a tank and holds up better mechanically than my X-Maxx. The only thing that went out on mine was the ESC. But thanks to Traxxas' excellent customer service, I sent in the motor and ESC after a year of ownership and they replaced both free of charge! Traxxas may cost more than other RC's but my experience has been that you are part of the family with plenty of support.

How do you use the UDR wheels if you have the CVD driveshafts? I purchased the UDR wheels for my Maxx but have the CVD driveshafts and they don’t fit. Please help me if you can. Thanx.

Sadly, that mod doesn't work if you upgrade to the metal driveshafts. -Brett

[@oshow1147]

I have probably sent my Maxx about 50 feet in the air to flat and have not experienced any troubles with breaking fans not even a blade breaking off.

Bought one just to jib around the back yard. A ramp a table a rail and my shed roof and the maxx is sick

[@pgrcplus]

Thanks for the top tip re servo saver (6.07-6.43) what a difference 👍 I remembered this from watching this vid first time around, so just circling back for a big thanks and shout out as 6 months on, I finally changed that part and the difference is amazing, it’s really solidified the steering and removed most of the steering play I’d been living with 👍👍😊 Thank you sir 🤟

[@AMain_Hobbies]

Great! Over time it's easy to forget how the steering used to feel until you refresh the parts. Happy to hear that helped and thanks for coming back to let us know. -Brett

[@olibobs1411]

i got a maxx about 2 years ago and within a month of running it on a football pitch the stock servo broke twice so i decided to get a metal servo for the same price as a traxxas one and its not even scratched.

[@saltyOG]

Brett, can you please give a link to the UDR tires? Would the ones you like be good all around and bashing? Are there any down sides to using them on a MAXX? You mentioned the size loses top speed but adds torque, would I need to change gearing at all? If I upgrade to MMX with 1515 motor would I need to change gears? And finally, If I run these with MMX 1515 would it make the esc and motor run hotter or cooler? I know it’s alt of questions but you’re the man to ask. Congratulations on the the event’s you won.

[@AMain_Hobbies]

The UDR wheels only fit the Maxx with the stock driveshafts; if you add the upgraded steel Maxx driveshafts they do not fit the wheels. But here are the tires: www.amainhobbies.com/proline-unlimited-desert-racer-udr-hyrax-tires-w-inserts-2-z4-pro10163-00/p-qqqrtawqlc2xqctz?v=997147 They mount up on any UDR wheel and require no gearing changes. If you change motors you may need to change your gearing, but you'll just have to try it and experiment. -Brett

[@gcmfskg]

I love my Maxx but I've burned up the 4s VXL and now the VXL 6s. I think it's my belted Badlands but my Maxx bashes so good with them so I'm converting everything to 6s.

[@ChicagoBears2121]

Hmmm, maybe gear down? Sounds like overheating,maybe.

[@andyb9994]

Love your vids, always so much info you never leave anything out like needing the wheel hex's and hex nuts for the steel driveshafts..great job, but that's the difference from people who know and love the hobby to people who don't....👍👍

Considering buying a Maxx to compliment my newly purchased XMaxx. This was quite helpful!

[@mellowpunk85]

I have both and I drive the maxx more with all these upgrades and it’s the best car (you can find better in different categories of course) but if your looking for a little of everything from being built like a tank to functionality like flipping and bashing this thing is amazing! It may not maneuver like the revo but will definitely take more of a beating

[@gasolinediesel972]

@@mellowpunk85 The revo is still a pretty tough machine while driving much better. I'd take a revo over a maxx. Yeah, the maxx is stronger, but the revo is better in every other way. It's faster, it's bigger, it has more torque, it's more stable, it handles better, it has more power, it's more controllable in the air, it jumps much nicer, it just goes on and on.

[@brettradecki]

@@gasolinediesel972 I’d say the exact opposite. I have both and the Maxx is by far the better built truck and is much more fun to drive. EREVO is poorly engineered, it’s slower and is fragile and it cannot handle jumps.

I'm getting my boyfriend the Maxx for Christmas (he has no idea!) and this is what I've put on the list of other items to get with it right away.

I want him to be a happy camper on Christmas day!

[@AMain_Hobbies]

Wow, impressive list that covers about everything! Just tell him to keep in mind the larger 3.8 tires act like gearing up the vehicle, so he may need to gear down to keep the electronics from overheating. But, it depends on how hot/cold your environment is, and where he drives (mud or sand are much harder on the vehicle than pavement or smooth dirt). Hope you have an r/c too! -Brett

Couple things I'd point out as a maxx v1 owner and having done all these upgrades.... Fuel line on the dog bones, 4s 6700 or better will waller out the cutouts in the drive cups. Aluminum bell crank, aluminum servo horn and aluminum/titanium toe links. The plastic won't hold up to decent bashing. Keeps the steering tight and right, just need to keep clean. Hinge pins back out. I captured mine with hardware I had at home but they do sell kits. Shocks...outta the box they're not great. At least up the shock weight but I found a big difference going to a full aluminum progressive shock.

[@angpar8449]

Hello Brett. Excellent no BS video as usual. Thanks for pro tips ! I just tried your recommendation of the UDR wheels with the Hyrax tires on the maxx and I am having some issues. I have a widemaxx and the wheels appear to fit but I noticed that the wheel hex doesn't go in all the way into the wheel and that about 2mm of hex is exposed. That little nipple that's part of the hex is whats preventing the wheel to be fully inserted. Further, the stub axle on the widemaxx appears to be a smaller width versus the thicker stub axle on the UDR wheel so there is a little bit of play. When I fully tightened the flanged nylon nut, the wheel appears to be tight and stable but not sure how this will hold up in a bash session. It appears your setup is working great with the UDR wheels. Have you had any issues with your setup and have experienced a similar issue? Will keeping these UDR wheels on the widemaxx be reliable setup? Thanks in Advance! Keep up the good videos! You sound like an announcer.

One of the main reasons that I like ordering from you guys! AMain Hobbies, goes the extra mile on showing us what is great to upgrade, how to fix stuff, what not to do and on top of all that. You guys have great customer support and really good prices. The only complaint I personally have is, it would be nice to see you guys try some of the more affordable parts and electronics. I have been trying some of the cheaper servos and tires and they are holding up just as good, Like the Hobbystar steering servo and the Duratrax tires and wheels. They have been a great way to save money with the gas prices being so high now days. I love your videos and as always, Thank you for all your help.

[@ryan6575]

Would there be a downside to leaving the tire holes covered always?

[@AMain_Hobbies]

Slightly reduced performance from your tire insert. The foam works best when they can breath but they'll still function sealed up. I'd recommend to rest your car elevated on a car stand or something similar when you're not using it. This will help prevent flat spots on the tires and foam inserts, and help them last longer. -Brett

Hi are the fans 35x35x10

[@CoryDorningMaker]

If the ESC goes bad (after 35 days) is it worth doing the ESC upgrade to 6s? Curious what you recommend.

[@AMain_Hobbies]

If the ESC dies after 35 days we recommend you contact Traxxas for a warranty replacement. Theoretically, you could upgrade the ESC to something 6S but just use the vehicle on 4S instead, with that option to use a 6S for special occasions. But we don't recommend a 6S Maxx for normal use; it's near undriveable. -Brett

Does it weigh the truck down when you get all metal parts
