CHeck it out in my gallery. We were jumping the maxx's over a skateboard ramp, lots of air but I learned that the stock plastic bits tend to break at these heights

thanks, I have been lurking in the background for a while doing research and bought a used T-maxx 2.5 off of ebay about 2-3 weeks ago.

I have had many electric r/c vehicles about 10-15 years ago and all I have to say about the t-maxx is 8-0 :breakdown :thumbup:

Welcome to RCNT, don't hesitate to ask any questions you might have while learning the "nitro curve"

Looks like you were getting some killer air of that jump!

thanks for the welcome. Is there anything I can do to stop braking rear body posts? I do have a roll bar (not cage) but on hard slams I tend to break the rear posts a lot. I am getting tired of replacing them.

Welcome to the site!

The best way to stop breaking rear posts is to land better. Thats about it.

Have you learned the fundamentals of breaking and giving it throttle in the air to control you landing? Braking will bring the nose down while giving it throttle will bring the nose up.

Hope this helps!

thanks, I have learned to control it in the air with the brakes/throttle......not perfectly of course :bling: I guess I will have to work on being more consistent in landing the right side up.

I did break the front bulk head and just ordered the CNC machining one.
