Upgrade Maxx V2 with Hobbywing, 24/46 gearing and Louise MT Pioneer tires - Dutch RC Adventures #25

In this building video the Traxxas Maxx V2 gets upgrades.
Stock VXL-4S ESC with 2400kv Velineon motor had already been swapped for a Hobbywing MAX8 V2 with a 2250kv 4278 sensored motor. Sensored, so very smooth throttle, and FUTURE 6S PROOF.
The stock plastic gearing will be changed to a high speed 24/46 hardned steel gearing.
And the Louise MT Pioneer tyres replaced the stock Sledgehammer tyres. These MFT tyres are more stable and doesn’t balloon as much as the stock tyres does.
A quick speedrun at the end to see the top speed. 46MPH, pretty decent. For now….

Nice you need to change that front and back defferential with thicker oil to avoid that skid

[@dragongamer8253]

i got a Maxx V2 as well but with the E Revo 2.0 Tieres and geting the Max8 G2 Kombo this Week you think that the Stock Gearing will Work?

[@Dutch-RC-Adventures]

It depends on the size of the Revo tires. Just try this at first, you can always gear up later. Just keep an eye on the temperatures

[@carloleoni4843]

How did u fix the ESC to the car!? Did you use the kit biadhesive inside the box?

[@Dutch-RC-Adventures]

the esc comes with a mounting plate. I have drilled one extra hole in this plate and used it to mount the esc to the maxx frame. no adhesive, mate!

[@10krms54]

Hows temps with those gears n did u notice a big difference with new system

[@Dutch-RC-Adventures]

didn’t measure temps when I was out. good idea for next speedrun, thanks!

[@jaceSHO]

what was your top speed before you did the upgrades ??

[@Dutch-RC-Adventures]

When it was stock it was hitting 80km/h, so approx 50mph. So for now not a huge difference in top speed tbh

[@stingerranger4942]

​​@@Dutch-RC-Adventuresget pigger battery over 6200mah. 3.8 wheels You can go higher speed the chart has the gear acceleration number that gear you put in accelerate 1.92 sec The stock 23/50 is 2.17 sec has high torque for bashing My maxx go 50 mph with 7200 mah

How did you Mount The motor?

[@davidmorrison5186]

Those tires look way more aggressive.

[@Dutch-RC-Adventures]

not only the looks, but also way better in handling.

[@dragongamer8253]

You know what the Stock Gearing is? i know that the Maingear is a 50T. Gear but i dont know the Stock Pinon Gear

[@mikegent2676]

Pinion is 23 stock

[@Dutch-RC-Adventures]

Yes, 23/50 is stock gearing on the Maxx V2. The V1 has 24/50 gearing as the tires are slight smaller.

[@carloleoni4843]

This combo work from 3s up to 6s im i right?

[@Dutch-RC-Adventures]

Yes, that is right. all tough 6s is al little overkill. couldn’t keep de Maxx straight

[@RcRelated]

A little dialog would really help Good video though

[@Dutch-RC-Adventures]
