I don't have a Maxx, but was experiencing heat issues with my Losi 8ight truck using steel pinion and spurs. It was getting the CD hot enough to be pushing out the silicone oil.

My fix was to go to a delrin spur. No issues with stripping the gear so far, but I do keep a extra as a back up. My losi T runs a 1717 on 6S geared anywhere from 45/11 for pulling the kids to 45/17 for speed runs, so I have put the delrin through it's paces.

If I could only draw what I see in my head, then afford to build it, and finaly get to play with it...
