RE: Traxxas support useless
anyone what to help figure out how to run the 12t titans properly geared to help people from burning out the motors
|
RE: Traxxas support useless
the 12t titans can't be used with that much voltage, they'll burn up
that's why they told you it can't be done, traxxas customer service just saved you the cost of 2 burnt up titans, you should be thankful |
RE: Traxxas support useless
im gunna still try and get it to work
|
RE: Traxxas support useless
How is that their fault?
|
RE: Traxxas support useless
since they dont know they what me to bug the guys at my lhs
|
RE: Traxxas support useless
They do know - you're not supposed to use the 12t Titans in that application.
|
RE: Traxxas support useless
The 12 turn titan was not made for the emaxx. It was made for the stampede rustler and bandit XL-5s.
You gotta remember the emaxx weights a lot more than any of those 3. |

ORIGINAL: DriftingDragon im gunna still try and get it to work Why? Its not going to work. It may work for a little while but youll probably smoke the motors in 2-3 runs if you even get that out of them. |
RE: Traxxas support useless
ill get brushless heat sink w/ fan
|
RE: Traxxas support useless
or maybe go dual black cans
|
RE: Traxxas support useless

RE: Traxxas support useless
arent there some 600 sized brushed motors for the emaxx?
|
RE: Traxxas support useless
ORIGINAL: DriftingDragon what would be the motors i could use for high speed then Or you could just save up and go brushless. Then youll have some good speeds. Edit: oh yeah check out Kershawdesigns.com they make some 700HO motors. Theres some vids on youtube too. |
RE: Traxxas support useless
my silvercans are faster then the titans
i just want more speed with the evx2 |
RE: Traxxas support useless
I kinda have to agree that Traxxas support isn't the greatest. But a titan 12T shouldn't go into a Emaxx. Also please use the "edit post" Feature :D just a tip. Anyways I think Traxxas could have addressed this a lot better.
|
RE: Traxxas support useless
ok well give me suggestions for motors i can run on the evx2 for speed i dont car about wheelies any more im gunna be starting to race but a bit low on funds
edit: doesnt have to be a traxxas motor |

Anyways I think Traxxas could have addressed this a lot better. have handled it better? they told him it wouldn't work in that application then said try a lhs then gave him info to find a lhs what more would you have them do? and as far as "bugging" the guys at the lhs they love to get people in their stores traffic is what makes sales point of fact imho traxxas customer support is about the best there is find one other industry where a company will send free replacement parts just because somebody calls and says it broke |
RE: Traxxas support useless
In my honest opinion they could have told him straight up that he should not run it with the 12T. They kind of left it wide open for debate.
|
RE: Traxxas support useless
If you get an email where someone disregards grammar and doesn't go into any detail about tires or volts there is only so much you can do.....

RE: Traxxas support useless
"I am not aware of any way to do it"
how much more straight up would you like? |
RE: Traxxas support useless
ORIGINAL: iamnot "I am not aware of any way to do it" how much more straight up would you like? Sorry Traxxas recommends not doing this as for, the Titan 12T motors will Burn up. Blah blah... points to what you should do |
RE: Traxxas support useless
