Well after 3 hours and some minor tuning issues my Maxx is running great. It feels like it has 3 times the power compared to when the old Pro .15 was in it. I can barely go past half throttle because the Maxx is hard to control.
When I mash the throttle from a dead stop the rear end snap out (most of the time to the right) and the front wheels jump off the ground a little. I have tried using the trim adjustment for the steering but it still doesn't help. Of course I am using a chevron type tire on pavement. I would guess this has a little something to do with it.
However if you look at my tires they are not straight and I am not sure what adjustments I need to make to correct this.
Here are some pictures that I took. I think it is pretty noticeable. Each picture was taken after I drove the Maxx around for a mintue and stopped it. So how you see it in the picture is the way it was when it stopped.
I also have a quick question on tuning. Should there always be a light trail of blue smoke? From a dead stop take off I will have some and when I am mid to wide open throttle I will have some. My temps were right around 250. For the blue smoke I would have to richen the mix right?
Also for the creative minds of RCNT. Please take a look at my other post that is located here
