Thanks, I am about to purchase the MM now. I am looking for the 9XL, alot of places are out of stock. Then grabbin a battery. Well see what happens.

you will be happy with the mamba max and feigao motor,just watch out for those very big jumps,my emaxx is temp. out of service,gotta get some rpm stuff!:lol:

Big jumps! What happened?

going pretty fast hit a plastic bike ramp wrong and landed on the right wheel,broke a a arm,and broke the plastic servo saver arm,had to wait a week to get the parts,that was the hard part,but its back on the dirt,love that feigao,did you get yours yet?

Well I purchased the MM and the feigao 7xl, now to find a li-po that will be adequate.

I run maxamps, not a racer, so they are good bang for the buck, plus, Austin is great!

2 x2s2p 8000mah

At 150 bucks a pop I hope they have a good bang for the buck. I think I'll take my time to get those, I may have to use that money in divorce court after my wife finds out how much I've put into my maxx. Thanks for the info neweuser.

How about TrakPower 2s packs at $120 ea? Little cheaper and excellent batts.

Don't even both with the 8000 maxamps packs. Buy the trakpower lipos, trust me I know. Puff puff pass!

I appreciate the info mkrusedc, and don't worry lincpimp I'm not gonna f up the rotation.

I did end up going with Maxamps, I saw a kit with charger, battery, and a few other doodads. I brought the truck out last night and um.. Holy #$%@!!!:surprised:Very happy with the brushless switch. Thank you for all the info. Now its time for me to upgrade the tires, cause the ones I have now... They aint gonna make it.:no:

You know, Ive read some bad things about the quality of maxamps LIPO's. But none even close to the little oops I ran into.
When I received my battery pack I went ahead an charged It per the instructions. Set up my MM esc with the required info and ran the truck for about 5 min. Hence the Holy #$%@!!! Post, Then I ran it the next day and after 3 min. it stopped. After checking the truck to ensure It wasn't a connection that I had made. I checked the battery only to find out that a tab on one of the cells was burned off. WTF was my first reaction. Has anyone had this problem before? And before you ask I wasn't running it hard, and there were no jumps, or hard starts on high traction surfaces, involved on either of the short runs. Oh and what kind of transmitter/receiver recomendations do you all have.
