LRP engine in tmaxx 3.3

[Ochana25]

Kk I just ordered the. 28 spec 3 lrp

 

[hulkmaxx]

OK lol guess that's the one then ordering it now

Not sure why everyone says the .28 is easier on fuel than the bigger .32. From my experience the .32 is about the same. Either way you will have more power than you will know what to do with LOL!

Losi 5ive-T - Rc Acres 4wd Moto 1 & Moto 2 Oct. 1…:

Nice man I love those Losi's. I had a HPI Baja 5b loved it other than the pricey parts and not enough room here where I currently live to run it. The only track that supported nitro racing has closed down which sucks. My buddies and I have been working on a track but a lot of guys here have switched to electric short coarse racing. Nitro has really taken a big hit here. Very few of us guys left in my area, run nitro at all. Wish there were an rc club local like you are a part of. I remember back in the day there were so many showing up for the monster truck class at the club events they were not getting everyone a chance to run.

I do the crawler side of the hobby so I embrace electrics there but that's about as far as it goes for me.

For the driveshaft will the tmaxx one be good like a new one or is there aftermarket ones that are stronger

If you bought the RD Logics conversion it will come with a set of extended drive shafts. The BB conversions are extended chassis so you will need different drive shafts than the factory. Plus any decent BB mill would twist off those stocker drive shafts like a tooth pick especially an LRP.28.

Steel gears for Trans?

Need to verify what model the maxx you have is then yes I would recommend some steel RRP gears. Hope you have the newest #4907 model they are the easiest to come by in the RRP steel gear sets.

 

[Ochana25]

How. Do I know which one.

 

[hulkmaxx]

How. Do I know which one.

Is it a grey trans case and does it have reverse?

Traxxas made several versions of the maxx. A #4910 it had a black case trans, #4909 had the same short chassis but had the grey trans with a revo style slipper clutch, #4908 grey trans case with reverse, #4907 the newest style came without reverse. The #4909, is different from the rest as far as I remember. The #4908 and #4907 us the same gear sets I think. I am sure when Snook reads this he will have a better Idea than I. Also the #4908 and the #4907 both use the 6mm main input shaft I think. I know the #4907 does that is the trans I am running in the truck in the vid.

 

[Ochana25]

It doesn't have reverse here's a pic might give you an idea

[hulkmaxx]

Looks to be a #4907 model.

 

[Ochana25]

Is that a good thing lol

 

[hotrodrob]

The 4907 is the newest version of the maxx platform, most of the parts are much stronger than the old original style stuff, chassis is also stretched "mostly in the front" factory foc was a nice touch on this model

 

[Ochana25]

So will I still have to upgrade the Trans internals

 

[hotrodrob]

Ya, that lrp will eat up the plastic gears and ask for more
