E maxx Flm ultimate bulkhead
whats up guys im having a bit of a dilemma with my flm maxx build. so if all four wheels are on the ground i cant push the truck, but if only two are down front or rear it rolls fine. Any clue on whats happening?

Did you make sure to orient the diffs opposite eachother? If you put the ring gears both on the same side, the front/rear will spin in opposite directions and the truck won't go anywhere.

The orientation of the differentials, must be flipped when viewed from above. So if the ring gear is on the left in the front, it should be on the right in the rear. Otherwise when the motor tries to drive the truck, the front might try moving the truck forward but the rear would drive the truck in reverse. The transmission 'fighting itself' which leads to it feeling bound up when you try to roll it.
Calibrate the ESC and pick the truck off the ground, and apply throttle. Whichever end drives in reverse, remove that differential and flip it over. Rebuild and you're good to go. |
