Default 12s MTXL, new Truck

Just got it built and delivered. I run it 12s, but the ESC can handle 24s. Some custom parts here, Carbon Fiber tower to tower braces, Madmax tires, etc.

Enjoy,
Trout

Nice custom build. I like custom trucks, or at least trucks that are not stock. But I have a OCD sickness that makes me want to change pretty much everything to non-stock heheh.

Thanks guys. Ive run it couple of times, just getting the feel of it and the ESC programmed the way I like it. That ESC is huge, picture doesn't do it justice, same footprint as two 4S batteries side by side, and longer. I'm fixing my ramp and then this weekend hopefully ill load some videos. Aauman88 made it. He makes the best trucks, The next delivery will be a Cen XT, that is completely custom, ill post once it arrives.

Very nice build! What tires are those? I did a electric conversion but can't get past 70% throttle on 12s (17T) or the tires are going to give.

Ooops...I can't read :-) Madmax :-) Thanks for listing.

First ramp session, broke a rim. But those are high and long jumps for a 50 pound truck.
enjoy.

saw our video, sweet setup bud. The mad max tires will be perfect for your speed runs, they don't balloon much, you'll get 100% throttle. I like to jump, I'm looking for ballooning, going to try stock tires. Maybe we should swap tires.
