Lookin' good, sike! To me that motor seems too small for the E-Maxx, but I suppose it is just based off of my experience with lower quality (I think) outrunners that heat up more.

AXI Quality is very good. Big Things come in small packages. LOL

It makes good power and the added cooling fan helps control temps. It moves a good quantity of air, especially with the higher kv. It sounds like it's screaming when the rpm's are up. A high pitch.

I've only ran it on 4S so far, we'll see how things go when I bump that up to 5S and then on to 6S.

I just ran this on 6S. Top Speed is MUCH better at around 40mph. Temps are still well in hand.

The warmest the motor got was maybe 100 degrees. ESC was cold, Lipo's were cool. No Worries on Temps.

It doesn't seem like this motor is loaded at all with this gearing. It just screams. WeeeeEEeEEEE WEEEEEeeeeeeeee. LOL

She will wheelie at speed now and backflip if you're not easy on the trigger finger.

I really like the Mod1 gears. Mike makes some really tough pinion gears. 2 runs, no wear, and no worries. I can tell the Mod1 gears are MUCH tougher than the 32 pitch ever thought about being. If I were Transferring this much power through 32 pitch ones, they would be showing alot of wear by now.

With the way this AXI 2826/10 motor is behaving, I feel like maybe I could have went with the 8 turn motor. This 10 turn is 920kv. The 8 turn is 1130kv. We aren't lacking at all in the torque department.

This setup is very efficient. I got close to 30 minutes runtime from 6S 4000mah.

I can't wait for the 2 speed Transmission kit.
