My Emaxx Brushless build!!

Alright guys. I was going to build a ERBE, but then I decided I wanted to build a EMBE. I'm starting from scratch, so it is going to take a while and i'm not the richest person in the world. So far I got a brand new chassis, proline trencher x tires on 1/2 offset desperado rims, a thunder ac6 charger, and a traxxas 2.4GHz transmitter and reciever.

Do i recognize that controller??????haha. can't wait to see your progress. (also change your signature) lol. Check out my build.

Got aluminum bulk heads and screw/tool kit.

I guess I should be more specific. ACNCM aluminum bulks $50 shipped.

Does anyone know if this will work in the emaxx?

Alright over the past week I got my bulks and screw kit in. I would upload pictures but photobucket won't let me so maybe later. Any suggestions on what to order next?

Get the brushless emaxx spec diffs f/r. Dont be fooled, all diffs are alittle different on all the different models, even if they look identical. You want the ones w the hd diff cup and x bracing w the side metal inserts. Also, aluinum skids to mount to aluminum bulks. That way you should be ok w stock chassis braces. Makes that weak link where chassis mounts to bulks stronger. Flm towers gives u some shock mounting options. Speaking of shocks, get some real good ones, its a very heavy truck, and most of us w them weigh them down w 2 big heavy batteries and most shocks cant handle it, not even bigbores. Id like 8 rear losi ten-t shocks myself. Check ebay. That should be enough for now!

How would it do with 4 ten t shocks?

Are you just talking about brushless e maxx diffs?

yea he is. The nitro truck diffs may look the same but they are not as durable as the brushles power. They just can't handle it. So buy e-maxx brushless diffs.

as far as shocks go, I'd recommend a set of 4 [URL="http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-OFNA-ULTRA-LX2-REAR-16MM-THREADED-SHOCKS-ALUMINUM-T-MAXX-/130751549311?pt=Radio_Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1e71664f7f"]ofna LX2 rear buggy shocks.[/URL] They are way larger than stock and offer excellent damping with only 4 shocks required.

I think u would need 8, unless ur not jumping, but itd be hard to find stiff enough springs

Okay. Thanks. I guess i will just get big bores when i upgrade

Got photobucket to work so here is how she stands

Lol. I think we all know I would win without any contest

yeah you would since i'm so slow to get started

Got the rc screwz kit today. Still doesn't look like it has all the screws. I guess I will find out when I actually open it up. For example I was looking for the servo mounting screws but couldn't find them.

I know certain screws only are not included but i think the servo screws should be included. I think motor screws are not included which i just used my nitro engine mount screws and worked good. I checked mine today before running since i was taking vid didnt want something flying off lol.

Their slash 4x4 kit didn't have the servo screws with it

Ya I found out that mine didn't come with them either....good thing there is all 8 with the other screw kit I ordered.
