TRAXXAS MAXX 4S GETS ALUMINIUM UPGRADES

[@rcworxshop]

Servo mod right here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIrccnh-qrKmd8U

[@thirdmonkey]

I put a lot of upgrades in my Maxx. Wide body, aluminum steering links, 40kg power HD servo, aluminum shock caps, aluminum front and rear bulkheads, aluminum front and rear carriers and castor blocks, hardened steel pin kit, light kit and proline trencher tires and reinforced body. It’s an absolute tank. My only regret was the front and rear bulkheads as it made it too heavy and its hard on the motor. It hugged the ground so well but after switching back to plastic bulkheads I like it better…and so does my motor lol

[@rcworxshop]

Awesome matey, thanks for the heads up the bulkheads where on my list I'll cross them off for now 👍🏻👍🏻 thanks for watching

[@Quints86]

Awesome video as always RCWORXSHOP !!

[@rcworxshop]

Thanks matey, how's tricks?

[@rachbuilds6301]

😮 Lookin good! So cool x 😎 👌

[@rcworxshop]

Thanks Rach 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I've fitted this. The wheels used to turn when stationary (no drive) now they don't . Is this normal ? I always thought the wheels were supposed to turn when stopped on carpet for example ? I also have vitavon servo horn and arm fitted, connected to a Traxxas 2255 high torque servo which all looks good and dead centre . Car fine when up in the air turning but when driving turning circle seems wide. Cheers

[@rcworxshop]

Sound like you need to tighten up the servo saver?

[@singledadof2]

@@rcworxshop it's tighter than a nuns 😂 really trying to figure it out . Very annoying that it all needs to go back together before I can test it haha. I'll keep trying different things but thanks for the reply mate 😊

Your welcome, let us know how you get on and thanks for watching 👍🏻

[@rudiperez5315]

Noticed you have a TRX to deans adapter, do you run that with a 4S deans battery ?

[@rcworxshop]

I used to up to a few months ago, but I've moved to xt90 and xt 60 on all my models "there was a lot to change over lol" 👍🏻 I've ran deans for years and never encountered any problems but since stepping in to the 6s 8s game I thought it best to make the switch 👍🏻

[@rudiperez5315]

@@rcworxshop Thanks for that. I’ve just got a Maxx and my 4S batts are all Deans, I have an adapter but people tell me of melting and blowing the esc if I use it, which worries me as a newbie. I’ve not used it yet as a result.

[@angryyank]

By the sounds of it a new cooling fan for the ESC

[@rcworxshop]

🤣🤣 yes your right it's just a spining disc in there 🤣🤣

[@flhandster4395]

So, what’s your thoughts on the real necessity of making this upgrade? Some say putting in aluminum parts often causes issues with other non aluminum parts. You’ve not changed your Toe Links to aluminum? What’s your thoughts? PLMK ASAP. Thank you for the great video.

[@rcworxshop]

Really it's probably more cosmetic than anything else, more like a treat to yourself and your truck 👍🏻

[@flhandster4395]

@@rcworxshop Oh OK. Thanks. Have you changed your toe links to aluminum as well?

[@rcworxshop]

No I wouldn't really recommend that, there has to be some flex somewhere, if it was only going to live on the shelf as a shelf queen maybe but again just cosmetic then

[@jaceSHO]

I tell you now this over the stock is such a difference maker especially with Talon 3.8s on the Maxx - Stock Bell and Saver would not let it turn and with the Hot Racing one I installed the truck turns like it should again. Its a must.

[@donald2818]

If you’re going to put a vitavon bell crank in there you should also change your servo horn to steel and get a pair of aluminum toe links. Only as good as the weakest link.

[@rcworxshop]

I like your thinking I've already done the servo horn and hubs in another video 👍🏻 thanks for watching matey

[@fluxcapacitor8416]

do i need to change spring mine came along with it.

[@rcworxshop]

If you where lucky enough to get a spring with yours then keep it on 👍🏻 thanks for watching matey 👌🏻

[@emmanuel_sotelo5414]

Where can I buy it?

[@rcworxshop]

Most good rc stores will be able to get hold of one, also try ebay, thanks for watching 👍🏻

[@rockrollarc9792]

I didn't know you could upgrade parts on a xmaxx/maxx as its already a awesome platform with very little flaws. Great video 👍

[@rcworxshop]

Too right matey, love the Maxx truck, there's pretty much everything available in alloy for um 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@ryanomolida9781]

You need to order the orange T cross member GPMTXMS048C-OR I odered a green servo saver and the T cross member for my green maxx. CHEERS TO YA.
