Who has used 5S on the Mamba max controller, and does it overheat easily? Obviously a lvc will have to be installed, but would it run way hotter thana 4S setup, even with a fan?

My first try to do BL. Want to convert my Emaxx I have been reading alot on modding or upgrading the tranny idler gear with a harden one. Does anyone else have any upgrades that must be done or experiences they can share.

These were the upgrades that I did:

2 Trakpower Lipo batts 2s1p 4900 mAh
Castle Mamba Max esc
PowerStroke shocks
12 Associated slipper balls
Traxxas wheelie bar
RPM suspension arms
RPM axle carriers
Traxxas 3.3 turnbuckles
Traxxas 3.3 drive shafts
RC-Monster steel dog bone center shafts
Traxxas 3.3 gray bulkheads
Power Pole connectors
Futaba S3305 MG steering servo
Gorilla Max single speed transmission
RPM shock towers and body posts
RC-Monster steel idler
Neu 1515/1y/f
FLM aluminum diff cups with modified gear and 3 mm screws

There are other options such as Traxxas or some others CVDS.
The steering servo I have is not strong enough. (it was an extra I had so I used it).
You may consider a metal housing for the diffs and using 1/8 gears.
Also my slipper may not be strong enough, but the Strobes are not in stock.

Good Luck

Thanks for the info mkusedc!

Your are welcome.
