Thanks for the well wishes, sitting around does suck a lot.. been 4 months and i am still kinda in pain and discomfort.. but this is my 6th surgery on my knee and the most in depth so.. i guess it is to be expected. Awesome.. let me know how the widekit works.. I am severely interested.

Good evening, I know I am resurrecting my thread, but I just found something that i think is awesome for the X-maxx. I just stumbled onto the WideMaxx kit for the X-Maxx, it looks SICK!! I haven't pulled the trigger on the X-maxx yet, since I am still away from work due to my knee surgery in...

Thanks for the recommendation.. I am leaning toward the Xmaxx at the moment anyway.. Just waiting for the Rock and Roll one to come back in stock.

btw, just out of curiousity, how long of runtime would i get from 1 set of 6900 135c lipos? Debating if I need to buy 4 off the top or will be fine with 2.

If i got those batteries for the xmaxx. I just need to make sure to pick the traxxas connector?

That is great to hear.. It is a complete toss up for me between Kraton 8s or Xmaxx.. There is a local hobby shop that has the kraton 8s in stock.. It looks sick.. I am just kinda leaning more towards the monster truck style vehicle. Which would be used for bashing and fun, flying thru the air...

Yeah, as i stated in the earlier thread it has probably been close to 30 years since I have had a remote and it was nothing like the new systems. I do know that the truck is about a grand and contains the truck, the remote, and a couple other thing such as maintenance tools (I have read these...

Thank u so much for the quick response. I am looking for a brand new xmaxx. So everything will be brand new. When it comes to price, i want to keep it relatively reasonable since i am buying 4 batteries. I want something decent but 150 + per battery is kind of expensive. If they had a...

Good evening Everyone!! So.. knee is healing well and is time to start looking again. That Race Day Quads(RDQ) charger looks super nice. So far I have The rock n roll Xmaxx picked out, blue loctite, and an 18t mod 1 pinnion...

So far, yeah, still thinking about the xmaxx 😀 the only real difference is that locally from what i can see, i can only get the kraton 8s, no one carries the xmaxx.

Np, you can utilize and hijack the thread :) i had to put the purchase on hold for a couple months since i just had knee surgery. I am still very much interested in the xmaxx and the kraton 8s. Once i start getting the ok from the doctor so i can lift weight again, i will start looking again.

Just out of curiosity, would it be worth it to pick up a used xmaxx from the facebook xmaxx group? Or better to buy a brand new one?

Thank you so much for the responses. So far have not pulled the trigger since the blue xmaxx, all xmaxxs for that matter, are on backorder. I keep checking to see if anyone has the blue rock and roll xmaxx for cheaper, but so far the cheapest i have seen is 899, but i missed the sale ;-(...

so which spur would i be looking for? And the first thing I would do when i get it is to locktite every single screw?

Does that come with the spur? or is that a different piece? sorry for all the questions, this will be my first RC in a long time and the first one to ever be able to upgrade.

Do you have a link for one? I found one on AMain Hobbies it is pinion (8)/spur(32). does that mean it is 8t?

What size pinion should i upgrade to?

Have to change leads depending on the charger? Doesn't the charger come with all different connections? Or do i have to get the charger dependent on the batteries? Also which are the better batteries to get for the xmaxx?? Been reading the xmaxx batteries are not all that good.

So after much deliberation and chatting with the Wifey, since I could not really decide since I really liked them all. ;-) I think I have decided to go for the X-Maxx with the Rock and Roll Body color. I was curious what batteries I should go with.. Is Smart batteries worth it? One of the...

I have continued to research the X-maxx, DBXL-e, and the Kraton 8s to see what some of the known issues are and it seems the big one that stands out on the Kraton is that even though it has a metal chasis, it bends super easy. I do understand things are going to break when i start jumping and...
