HV-maxx

Is the NOvak HV-maxx a good brushless??
right now im running stock titans with dual gp3300
but i smoked one of the titans so im considering upgrading from brushed to brushless?
if so wut gearing should i use with the HV??

If you're looking for a mild BL which requires a minimum on drive-line upgrades, get the HV.
If you would like to get more power, get something else, such as the Feigao/Warrior combo. (winds depend on cell count)

If you're a carefull driver, the stock driveline might survive quite a while.

I suggest that you go with the HV system since you will truly see a noticeable increase in time and speed over the brushed one. In the future you might want to get a more advanced power plant for your truck which needs to be modified to some extinct in order to tolerate the higher powers of the new power plant. When that time comes this place is the right one to turn to. About the gearing of the HV, just use the same spur and pinion that came with the stock Maxx and you might be able to add a teeth or so if you want a little more of speed.

but ive heard that the HV thermals with the stock pinion and spurs

[captain harlock]

Possibally they're using heavy hopups. The HV is 370 watts rated brushless motor (pretty weak compared to other motors of its class).....??!!..!!..????.....Oh YEAH I forgot. Why dont you get the basic 4200 with a 7018 esc from here for quite a reasonable price and almost the same as the Novak system, but twice the power of the Novak? This setup is incredible if you use it with the stock E-MAXX. Believe me its a satisfying choice that will not disappoint you at all.

problem is i cant order anything via online escept for the cheap stuff like things under 50 bucks
cuz my dad is the only one can order for me
and he doesnt want to buy expensive stuff
so i have to buy my own brushless
I have 200 bucks right now
I buy my RC parts at PegasusHobbies... do you think they will have the basic 4200 and the 7018 esc?

[captain harlock]

Please dont take it the wrong way, but how old are you? that might help a bit.

I am planning to get the Feigao9L/Warrior combo
I would not reccomend the HV maxx cuz in some cases they have burned or caught on fire :W: :mad:
I like the system but its not fast enough for me lol
I just wanted you to be warned

[Shadow350Z]

im 17

[Serum]

old enough for a real setup if you ask me! ;)

the hvmaxx is nice, but it just replaces the stock titans, with a bit more runtime, smoothness and topspeed/torque..

Good for the stock drivetrain!

[Shadow350Z]

yeah thats why im going with the HV dont have much money for parts
im saving up for a Nissan 350Z 6-speed manual

[Shadow350Z]

would the HV be good for racing and bashing?
and would you guys think PegasusHobbies would have the brushless motors and ESCs like the ones here on this sites shop

[captain harlock]

I've never scanned every single place in the website to tell you the truth, but my guess is no I dont think they do since these systems are seldom to find in most hobby shops and this place (rc-monster.com) is not a hobby shop IMO, but rather a place for brushless supplies and monster/stadium trucks shop. I like...no..I love it to be honest. Then again go for the HV if you were not able to get the Lehners or Feigaos, because your truck is stock after all and the HV will surely deliver you at least a 32
+mph speed run if not higher which is much higher than the 22mph the titans usually give out.

if I get an HV now is it possible to buy another HV l8r and make it dual HV? using 4 batt packs with the G2 race chassis
will it be faster?

[captain harlock]

Yup, it is and I think it will add serious speed as well, but you need another controller. Cantya make orders from here instead of Pegasus? then you can have a real brushless system instead of the HV( The Novak HV is not bad at all, though).
