Excellent video! I have changed quite a few spur and pinion gears in my day but never on the Maxx. Many times it can be tough to find good "how to" vechiles online howver this one was perfect. It was straightforward and right to the point. I am now running a metal 46mm Spur gear with a 25 tooth pinion on the v2. I think the v1 comes with a stock 25 tooth and v2 comes with a 24 stock. Also have a set of Arrma Talion Katar tires on it and it turns into something even better than it already is. The handling is phenomonal and speed is ferocious. These are definitely the tires this should have come with.

Traxxas was my introduction to the hobby (Rustler 4x4) and I'm planning on getting a Maxx V2. Their stuff is just too awesome, I don't care what anyone says. Funny thing is that all the other major players are going proprietary as well, with all the smart batteries and smart chargers. At the end of the day you can still choose your batteries, but man using Traxxas stuff is great. I love not having to mess with my charger every damn time like with all my other batteries on my Losis, Axials, etc.

@outsourcedrc
2 жыл бұрын
Yes, it is slower, but you need the torque to turn the drive train. It will cog if it is geared too high. I actually ended up going 20/54. So it's geared even lower than 20/54. That seems to be as high as I can go and not have it cog when I get on the throttle.
@hsu4260

@@outsourcedrc Thank you for your reply. I understand why the gear change is necessary. I guess my question is, is it really worth slowing the truck down that much just to have bigger, heavier tires? Why not just go with something like the Trenchers LP 3.8 and keep some of the speed?

Those look like they are for the E Revo. They are probably pretty heavy. Is it cogging? If it does, then try a 20t pinion. If it still cogs, then bump your Spur up to a 54t. If it's still cogging, then you want to go down on your pinion some more. 16t is a low as it goes.

What would be the best tooth count for getting more speed from the Maxx
@Krapper515
5 ай бұрын
For any RC, close to a 1:1 ratio. Bigger pinion, smaller spur. In this case, probably the 26 pinion and the 46 spur. That would definitely heat the motor up though. For general knowledge: 50t pinion and 50t spur is a 1:1 ratio (same as say 46 pinion, 46 spur. 58 pinion, 58 spur. These are 1:1 ratios). This is what some 200+ mph guys use. Though terribly unreasonable and too hurtful for the motor for a normal RC. Hope this helps (over a year later lol)
