Nah batteries seem fine, no puffing or smoking there. I think the clutch pads are worn down too much and the spring was too loose, causing way too much friction. I have got some new pads and will try...

Well after throwing more money at my emaxx, it now launches off the line with 2 lipos, 5mm 4.5 novak, 40 series road rage, steel drive shafts and steel center drive shafts. But after taking it for a...

I checked that and is at 0%?

RPM's have good flex in them but not too much that they snap easily. I have had one on mine and it worked great until I went WOT and it collected the side of telegraph pole, but it broke the chassis...

I will be running 6400mah lipos so I hope to get some decent run times.

Do you guys know how many amps the Novak 4.5 needs? I got some TRC lipos comin and they make 96 amps and I would like to know if they will run well? I found out the hard way when finding which batts...

Thanks for the response guys, I am currently using a JR XS3 and have a swallow advance charger that only does 5amps.

I am getting ready to install some true rc 6400 7.4v 15 C lipos in my HV MAXX 4.5 soon and Just have a couple Q):

1) Does the lipo cut off take 2x 7.4v packs, the sticker says 2-cell?
2) Should...

Novak suggest to run either 12 or 13t. You should watch your temps though, it shouldn't get hotter than 170 F. I don't have any snow around here but I would try incasimg the bottom half with a ballon...

I kept blowing my 6 cells. I recomend buying a good set of lipos. Either SPC or true rc lipos around 5000 mah.

IMO 17/68 is way too much. Novaks are very sensitive to gearing and running it that high will cause it to get pretty hot. Novak suggest running 12/68 for the safest and you can also try 13/68 but...

I you want you could try taping the foam in the tires to help with the tires ballooning. Just put some duck tape around the foam once. It might help to keep it on the ground. Sounds like your having...

I have bought 2x 6400mah 15C lipos, so I will get 96 continuous amps.

Alright I get ya.

What do you mean, 8000mah 7.4v 15C supply a continuous discharge rate of exactly 120amps and a max burst of 160amps. Heres a links just scroll down to 8000mah 7.4v 15C and look at the stats on the...

So do you think I can get away with 4 big bores with hard springs and 4 stock big bores with all 50wt oil?

I was thinking of running 8 shocks with heavy springs by I thougt I might try 4 extra heavy and 4 stock. I know what you mean by the harder springs getting most of the work but I want to see if this...

The temps that you will get are determined by your discharge rate. The MMM motor that comes with the brushless e-revo is rated at 120 amps, so you will need to get some lipos that supply around that....

Just another quick question, is it much an advantage running a mamba max speedie instead of the one that comes with the HV system and just putting a y-harness in to use 2x lipos?

Alright I have ordered the big bores with 4 xxtra heavy springs. Does 40wt oil sound okay to run?

Thats true, I was pretty sure you will find an increase in torque aswell though.

Now don't quote me on this but I think that the voltage doesn't contribute so you would still get 96amps, but you should get more torque out of the motors from the higher voltage.

The C is the discharge rate of the battery. To calculate the amount of amps that the battery produces it can be calculated by C x amps. So the 7.4v 5200mah 24C=124.8amps. You need to get a high...

Now I am getting confused. I am hearing from a guy in Aus that said with the sallow chargers you just put 3.5-4amps through the lipo and it will automatically finish and not to do 5000 then 3000mah....

Should I just get 4 or 8 springs?
