Update for Functional Telemetry
An update is now available to keep you working with telemetry! Without sensor installation, you can now measure controller temperature, battery voltage, engine speed, and model speed. For more information, see the X-Maxx 8S Telemetry Upgrade
Design time
The Traxxas X-Maxx RC Car Chassis is a solid, compact design that is both rigid and light thanks to its spatial concept. As with other RC cars, Traxxas is a modular chassis, that is, it consists of a central part, a front part and a rear part. The modularity of the car chassis simplifies maintenance, it is easy to get to the differential and so on. In addition, in very severe accidents you do not need to change the entire chassis of the model, but only the damaged part.
Engine mounting
All propulsion parts are under the cover, new is the engine mounting system. The motor has enough torque to have 4 screws attached to the chassis. In order to change the gear ratio, there are a number of holes in the chassis so that you can screw the motor into the correct holes. For quiet and smooth operation, 20 ° inclined toothing was chosen, which is very unconventional for RC car models.
Body
The revolutionary novelty is the new X-Maxx car body fastening system. The body is not secured with staples but with a special clip. This eliminates unsightly bodywork holders, and the body removal is now a matter of seconds.
Dampers
The X-Maxx GTX massive dampers have 5.2 mm diameter piston rods made of high-strength steel. Attaching the shock absorbers to the shoulders and the tower is dual. All pins are made of 4 mm steel! Wheels over 20 cm in diameter are on solid aluminum shaft. The well-dimensioned spatial tower of the shock absorbers will allow driving even in very difficult terrain.
RC Car Drive Traxxas X-Maxx
Of course there is equipment X-Maxx with parallel (CV) half-axles, which are made of hardened steel. The wheel carriers are 24 mm hexagonal, the wheels are secured against clipping. Differentials have four planetary gears, are sealed and filled with silicone oil. By changing the viscosity of the oil in the differentials, their alignment and the driving characteristics of the X-Maxx model can be altered in the field. Basically, the differential is filled with oil with a viscosity of 60000 cPs. The wheel shafts are made of aluminum. The X-Maxx 8S is equipped with a central differential and a flexible shock limiting member.
Velineon 1600XL engine and VXL-6S controller
The Traxxas X-Maxx RC model is powered by the giant Velineon 1600XL brushless motor and the VXL-6S AC controller. The controller is equipped with an integrated fan, the engine is fitted with a giant passive cooler with a detachable fan that cools it down effectively.
Controller programming
The controller is programmed just like other Traxxas controllers. The controller status indication is a two-color LED. The controller also supports the use of NiMH batteries, but due to the performance of the model, we recommend using only LiPo batteries that are capable of providing enough power.
- Sport - Functions of ulcer, brakes and reverse. The controller provides full forward and backward power, this mode is default.
- Race - forward and brake function (ie not reverse). This mode is aquatic for races where you don't need reverse gear.
- Trainer - The controller has reduced power to 30%. If you do not have enough experience in managing such large models, you can use this. This mode is also suitable for children.
Power accumulators
Due to model performance, the car can only be operated on LiPol batteries. The X-Maxx RC model is designed to use a pair of 3-cell batteries connected in series with 5000 mAh or higher. Battery compartments are large enough to accommodate larger batteries. The batteries are mounted using a special system to ensure easy replacement. It is advisable to use a sufficiently hard LiPol 30C battery, which may be degraded if the LiPol battery is heavier.
Traxxas Stability Management
The Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) stabilization system allows you to experience not only performance, speed, acceleration and cornering at extreme speeds, but also ensures much easier steering and control on slippery surfaces like dust, smooth concrete or even ice and snow.
