#02 Traxxas X-MAXX 8S - Updating with the Traxxas Link Wireless Module!

[@beefwellington2298]

Love your new intro

[@iftibashir]

Thanks!

[@melv889]

Is it right that the x-Maxx 8s V2 has already the sensors installed so that I only have to get the Link Module itself?

[@iftibashir]

Yes thats correct.

[@melv889]

Thanks for the answer. Just installed it and it works out with no issues. Did you know why the voltage indicator is always showing about 6V on the dashboard? Seems like it's not the voltage of the vehicle but the voltage of the remote

[@Nerf-Or-Nothing-z9o]

I noticed the voltage reading in your video was 5.9 V. Is there any fix for that? I just bought a XMAXX with bluetooth module and is always showing 6.0V. Appreciate any input in this regard.

[@grnsgottaM]

Did you ever find out your 6 volts telemetry issue? As far as I can remember, mine has been stuck at 6 volts, since the 8S upgrade.

[@Nerf-Or-Nothing-z9o]

@@grnsgottaM yes. You need to choose the voltage to be the one from the ESC. When showing 6v the voltage that is showing is the one from the RC transmitter (4 AA batteries = 6v)

[@ukkospallo]

If I got another esc does this works a well

[@marcoscimbom]

No

[@beefwellington2298]

Yes brand new video

[@iftibashir]

Next Traxxas video coming soon - the first upgrade!

[@InvisiMan2006]

It should be noted that if you have any custom settings in your controller the app will override them without warning! I had servo end points set for my truck through my controller and nearly busted the axle when the Link app reset them - I only caught it because my truck was being worked on and I could visibly see and hear the servo links making contact with the axle.

Thanks for the tip!

So after ur last video of this xmaxx made me need a xmaxx in my life, so I went n bought one from my hobbyshop it’s still in the box on my workbench lol! Batteries just came in for it now it’s time to open this bad boy up. I need the module for mine

[@iftibashir]

Yes - definitely update the vehicle straight away. Ive read the ESC is a little buggy otherwise! First upgrade coming shortly!!
