In this video we have the unboxing of the hobywing ezrun max 8 esc, what you get in the box, a quick installation guide and a test run of the new esc in the car!! And what a beast it is!! Deffo worth doing this upgrade.
I have a new combo just sitting around waiting for the right car. I’m putting this on in for sure! Thanks buddy!! That’s a cat pack, it stores voltage for hard trigger pulls. Dumps extra burst of power, definitely install it. 👍
My ESC from my Maxx took a dump. Will the Max8 be a good replacement? I'm not planning to run a bigger motor, just run the stock motor and keep using the 3s lipo. Not planning to go big in cell. Thanks for your help!
Haha! Its evil with that gear ratio, it gets hot a little too hot for my liking, 80 degrees +... recentyl changed gears to tame it a little as i couldnt squeeze throttle above halfway
And except the receiver and transmitter, those are decent. I wish I knew this before I bought mine, I wouldn't have bought the LED kit and the link module and with that money I would have paid for the Max8+motor combo!
I don't think you can... Same thing happened to me, I bought the LED kit along with the MAXX, 6 weeks later the ESC died, so I got the Max8 with the 2200KV motor combo. Luckily Traxxas replaced the ESC under warranty so they sent me a new one! But now I have the Traxxas ESC stored in a bag along with the motor and the LED kit as spares.
@@thisIsRC yep I am going the same route. I may buy a 2nd maxx one day and between the two esc s and Traxxas warranty be able to keep one running stock lol
The black thing is a capacitor pack mate. Use batteries with a decent C rating and you don't need the pack. Bastards gave you a free fan. Gave me nothing with my max6 mate and my fan broke first use lol. You Maxx has just woken up I'd say, awesome throttle response 🙂
Jitter finger!! Try pulling trigger steady and hold in one spot and stop pumping it so much. You’ll get much better results and you won’t look like an idiot!
Dude took the time to make a video and is recording himself having fun with his RC vehicle and you tell him he looks like an idiot, because he is getting used to the new power? People like you are what drives people away from the hobby, and it's sad. Don't be mad. Life is short. Take your insecure self, elsewhere or make a tutorial on how we can all be miserable fat assed pro's, like you.
