RC-Monster Forums - View Single Post - ATTN: Brushless Owners: Do you think it was worth it for your Maxx?

redhatman

Hey guys, I have been working the last few weeks to find good setups for brushless. Currently what I have is:

-Mamba Max ESC
-Feigo 8XL Motor
-5mm Bore, 32P 20t pinion
-RC Monster Heatsink, Silver, XL Size
-Hardened steel idler gear-Emaxx transmission (Single Gear)

I was planning on running all of that on 12 cells.

Now the question is, do you guys think it is worth it to spend over $300 to make a brushless Maxx? I have been told I will be looking at speeds in the 30's and possibly low 40's. I realize it would be better acceleration and all, but I cant bring myself at the moment to spend some $300 to gain a mere, 10mph?

BTW, I have upgraded the centers and outer shafts to Revo 3.3.

Thanks!
