WOW, I'm flattered that RC4WD copied my UltraMaxxed Emaxx gears set (almost).
Yes I am the owner and the original designer and developer of the UltraMaxxed gear sets.
Due to circumstances beyond my control I no longer have the ability to produce gear sets.
I knew it was only a matter of time before they would tried to be copied and I commend RC4WD or whoever would come up to bat on a set of gears, I hope they hit a homerun.
I believe very few new products went thru the extensive design and testing that the UltraMaxxed gears went thru to bring them into Generation III.
There was a small issue with one set that was mentioned in a previous post about a shift pin gear wear problem. That was an isolated issue. It was something that I could have ignored but didn’t. That set of gears were fixed and it made me look ahead to further bullet proof my gears. Generation III were born.
My UltraMaxxed gears are being used all around the world and I have never had a complaint nor a set returned for any type of wear, breakage, etc. They are bullet proof.
A few things posted are not totally accurate. Concerning the Teflon Hard coat anodizing, it was tested and proved to have no lasting value. So that was abandoned. The original gear sets were run and tested with UE steel idler gears, wear was not an apparent problem as someone said wear was a concern, I was still looking ahead to build the best money can buy.
The whole idea was to build a set of gears that would eliminate all factors on wear, reliability, longevity and all out abuse of any kind, and be the best value. The development of my special alloy idler gears brought this gear set to a new level of strength, longevity and able to take any and all abuse. It was no longer recommended to run my gears with steel idlers when I now included a better compatible material. I set out to do my own research and development long before anyone else had the ballz to spend a penny on a new product that I saw the RC hobby needed once all the brush less motors started coming out.
The bottom line is I set out to develop and produce a product that never existed because I was tired of reading about all those plastic gears disintegrating, from speed runs or BL power. I did complete what I set out to do and it was fun while it lasted, but all good things come to an end. But it went beyond my widest dreams to produce the best gear set available. There are still a few well kept secrets on my production, that will keep them unique.
Apparently my GIII gears have a great reputation as being rare and the best made because I have found my gears on Ebay for over $350 a set.
Each set was hand inspected, test run and broken in by “me”. I had the final say on quality control. My gears were made in small batches by CNC machines, call me old fashion but I still found rejects and made sure every gear set worked before I would put it in the package. Mass production will bring down any production cost but it seems the time and quality effort I put into my gear production will never be duplicated. I made my gears right and supplied the whole package deal to do it once and forget about it.
Unless RC4WD sees and tests the gears against what I did, it will be ashamed to see all the failures. My gears will be copied but never duplicated. I guess it comes down to “you get what you pay for”.
I hope it all goes well for you but you still have allot to learn to try and equal the first the best and the strongest set of alloy gears ever made for the Emaxx.
My best regards and good luck,
Dan
