I’ve been working on tuning it. If I turn the end points down, it slows the top speed which isn’t the problem. Gearing it down would only compound the problem. The reason it can’t take full throttle is because of the aggressive wheelies. If anything, it needs to be geared up to smooth out the...

Well it runs, but I’m having a issue keeping the rear ring and pinion alive. I’m thinking I’m going to have to find an alternative. Honestly the HW5687 is a little too much for the truck anyways. You can never use full throttle and it takes some of the fun away from driving it.

Well due to some supply chain issues, but mostly the non existent customer service from WFO (do not buy from them), this truck IAH just now coming together. I think I about have it finished up. Just need to solder the leads onto the ESC.

Can anyone give me a recommendation of what Mod 1.5 ring and pinion to get for this HW5687 1100Kv motor, for just an all around basher, and where to get them? I’d like to stay a little conservative for overheating as I do have a wide open grassy area I drive at my house. Does the mod 1.5 ring...

I’m okay with it. I have Other Xmaxx’s and Maxx’s, so this one is just a project. I just need it to work, and haven’t figured out the best route yet. WFO seems to be lacking in the CS department.

This has always been my understanding, which is why I was asking.

What are the downsides to running “too much” ESC? How does it affect the truck?

So the mount is just thick enough that it places the motor back far enough to just hit the “brace” where the front of the stock ESC mounts, not letting it drop low enough for the gears to mesh. I don’t feel real good about grinding that part of the chassis off, due to the structural nature of...

Hello all, new guy on this forum, but I’ve been around the hobby and forums for a while. The forums have slowed down, due to Facebook, which I don’t have, so I’m struggling finding some information. I’ve decided to mod one of my XMaxx’s with a WFO recover box, ESC mounting plate, and a Max 5...
