Sup bro subbed and likes. Where did you get that wheelie bar from?

[@CommanderAstigRC]

That's some Powerhouse combo Bro.

Man! Love it!💯

[@rcmt2965]

Nice man that thing runs really cool. Looks like a blast to drive.

[@GoKaioken]

Heck yeah and it was set to just 80% power or 85% I don’t remember which one

[@rcmt2965]

Bent driveshafts if you don’t have the punch control turned up lol

@@GoKaioken My Goodness. Well glad you were able to just fit that esc.

[@hotknifehowie2670]

Tell us about the motor mount and fan setup

[@edgargomez2207]

NICE! I see you didn't waste anytime and picked up the XLX2 800kv combo before it was to late.

[@GoKaioken]

Lol you got that right!

[@countryacademy9053]

Planning on buying a castle setup " just incase" I fry the stock setup. What gears and mounts are you running?

[@Dagotown]

Wheres the motor mount from?

[@anrcrown]

Looking to get the new xmcxx what do you think about trying to put in this engine with xlx2? Keep those videos coming very helpful!

[@GoKaioken]

I’m not sure I understand

[@RobertNES816]

Way too much power lol. Man that's nuts.

[@onemansvideos2134]

You got a sick property there by the way

[@fourwheelatv]

So I have an XLX2 esc and 1100kv motor in my xmaxx, and the other day I noticed that my esc falls into the batch of potentially bad ESCs. However I've been using mine since mid December and have had no issues. Should I still contact castle or since its working do I not need to do anything?

[@GoKaioken]

I would contact them and let them know your situation and have them advise you.

[@fourwheelatv]

@@GoKaioken thanks for the advice!

[@onemansvideos2134]

You shouldn't have to snip the on/off you should be able to pull from the xlx2 harness..just gotta pull them out and put back in

[@GoKaioken]

Ah man I didn’t even think about that. Good to know for the future, thanks!

[@onemansvideos2134]

@@GoKaioken I was going to remove my power switch and make a jumper so I didn't have to use it but I gave this power switch a chance 😅

[@ccas5047]

Sup bro, that Xmaxx is nice. Are your motor wires A-A, B-B, C-C? Or did you do A-C, B-B, C-A? Thanks

[@GoKaioken]

No problem

[@nathanpatrick7094]

What gear you run ?

[@Playstation5-d9u]

Do you have to tune the xlx2? Or i can run like that ?

[@GoKaioken]

You can run it like it is just be sure to calibrate it to your remote

[@Playstation5-d9u]

@@GoKaioken ohh ok soo most of the tune i can programing whit my radiolink v3 right?

[@Dos_Rc]

Noice! I have the xlx2 1100 on my kraton 8s Also own the 1717 1260kv MMx8s which I run on my Mojave So far so good 😊 Love the content bro 👍 Keep em coming I want to buy another xlx2 combo thinking of going with the 800kv for my outcast 8s

[@GoKaioken]

I want to run that in a kraton 8S but I’m really hoping they make a few more rollers. I hate the idea of buying an RC just to swap the electronics to castle lol

[@Dos_Rc]

@@GoKaioken I hear you bro I put the stock K8S electronics in my kraton exb currently running 23t pinion on 8s it’s wild man can’t hit full throttle to much powa lol

[@GoKaioken]

Daaang yeah I have the castle 1717 and mmx8s in my Kraton EXB and it’s freakin insane!

[@mattgibbons4021]

Hey Josh where did you find that gear cover?

[@GoKaioken]

I have another video on my channel where I explain that if you do a quick scroll through you should find it

[@jamesrobinson4950]

Gonna give castle a little bit of time to make sure they've got the issue under control but I'm definitely getting one. Nice! Please keep us up-to-date if any problems 👍🏽

[@GoKaioken]

Will do brother!

[@Jstall7543]

Not a bad way to spend $500!

[@dubstepismtlife]

Aye you pulled the trigger! Xlx2 is definitely a tight squeeze but it's well worth it. That 800kv is finally getting the amps it deserves! Check out the 9700 mah smcs. They fit perfectly and will give you a ton of run time on the xlx2.

[@GoKaioken]

Those are the exact batteries I started with when I first switched to SMC and yes they are a PERFECT fit

[@Bro_wdf_you_doing]

I'm debating going with xlx2 on my Kraton 800kv that has monster mamba x 8s... or put it in my next xmaxx 🤔 🧐 🧐 love ya builds man big supporter here 🔥 keep us informed about this if you run into any issues

[@GoKaioken]

I’d say XLX2 all day, and will do brother! Much appreciated!

[@Niobium23]

That is an excellent build! All looks quality, very solid. She seems to be running incredibly strong. Wheelies downhill and stuff. Just a monster. What gearing are you running? Are you happy with that gearing? Just curious. I’m gonna rebuild my Xmaxx with a motor / esc combo at some point this year, just trying to decide on which setup to go with.

[@GoKaioken]

Running mod 1.5 gears, 23t pinion and 30t spur. In my opinion if you have a transmitter that can reduce power to about 80%, then is males are really nice combo!

[@TheSphongleface]

Wheelies downhill? You don't even own an RC car. These things do standing 10x backflips if you let them. How much did you get paid for your comment?

[@JonJonsOutdoors]

That 800 kv is Huuuugggggeeee! 😂 Are u going to switch to the mod 1.5 gears? They add a lot!! WFO and ARC both do great options. It def adds some muscle!

[@GoKaioken]

I’m already there 💪🏻

[@JonJonsOutdoors]

@@GoKaioken I see it now, under the cover!😂😂

[@Todd_G_FPV]

I want to see this esc on the stock motor lol

[@GoKaioken]

Lol

[@Todd_G_FPV]

@@GoKaioken u say lol but I really want to see how it does lol from my understanding the motor will only pull what it needs from the esc but honestly I think it may burn it up under hard driving

[@GoKaioken]

Oh dang you’re serious! Well I can’t advise of doing that but let me know if you do and make a video I would love to watch it!

[@Bawla187]

The Mamba Monster X 8s works perfect on stock motor. It's more responsive 👍🏾

[@Bawla187]

Not sure about this one yet.

[@hussainalmomen5495]

What’s the remote brand?

[@GoKaioken]

Radio link

[@djcrank4life]

Get the esc mount on eBay!

[@slatebmatthew]

link?

[@Bro_wdf_you_doing]

what gearing u running?

[@GoKaioken]

Mid 1.5 gears. 23T Pinion, 30T Spur.

[@anrcrown]

forgot to put the engine description

[@GoKaioken]

I said what the engine was...

[@Todd_G_FPV]

Because there isn't a engine just a electric motor

[@SIRICKO]

12s setup i see.

[@GoKaioken]

No

[@thegooserider7245]

Castle STILL not using a power button on the ESC to prevent unwanted wires. Stupid..

[@TheSphongleface]

Hmmmmph. Not good.

[@1521joe]

Excellent.
