T-MAXX Brushless Electric Conversion
I looked for info on converting my T-Maxx to electric and every where there was someone saying get an E-Maxx. Converting is too much work.I guess those are the lazy guys who only buy RTF/RTR models.
My son converted his T-MAXX before I decided to do mine and had done all the hard work, the research. You will need 2 Traxxas parts a, #4994X Forward Only part, and a #5193X Single speed part. Get those before you start. I got my parts from A Main Hobbies for less than $21.
Watch the Video and I'll explain. You will need an electric motor and speed controll. I am going with the Novak HV Pro Brushless 550 size Motor 6.5T and ESC Combo, list price is aroung $169, some nuts and bolts and a motor mount.(You can get a motor mount from How2RC.com There's a link at the left . Or you can make your own, like I did. A couple 3000 - 5000mAh LiPo batteries. That should get you running silently, If you have problems, email me.link at the bottom of the page.
