I don't know almost nothing about E-Maxx, but how long can stock batteries last? How is E-Maxx compared to T-Maxx in off-road driving?

That setup would give you more torque and less speed. But much better traction control in the snow. :D

Its not too hard. You will need to first protect your electronics on the Emaxx, mainly the steering and throttle servo's and the receiver. The easiest way is to get some Plasti Dip. This product can be found at most Home Depot Stores. You will dip the servo's and receiver into the Platic Dip, then let them hang dry. After its dried, you will have a durable plastic coating that protects them from water/snow damage. I just finished setting up one of my Emaxx trucks for the snow. I also purchased a set of Proline Paddle Tires, Can be found on Ebay for about $40 dollars. Tower Hobbies also carrys these tires for a little more, about $50 dollars. I also recommend a Roll Cage. These are getting cheaper these days. The Roll Cage is optional, just a preference of mine to protect the Emaxx from damage when rolling over, which happens often. Your main concern when playing in the Snow with your emaxx is to protect your electronics. Oh Yeah, Dont' forget the most important electronic item, your ESC Controller. I found a small tupperware container that fit my ESC perfectly. I sealed it with silicone sealant and made small holes in it for the wiring and power cords to connect to the 3300mah stick pack batteries. Emaxx's love to play in the snow. You also might lower your gear ratio, get a 72-tooth spur gear and 14 or 15 tooth pinion gears. That setup would give you more torque and less speed. But much better traction control in the snow. Anybody else have some suggestions for playing with Emaxx Trucks in the Snow? Have Fun :D

What do you mean stock batteries? The E-maxx does not come with batteries, you have to buy them seperately. Run time all depends on driving style and the quality of batteries. In my opinion, the E-maxx is overall a better offroader then the T-maxx due to it's massive amounts of torque from those titans. Sure, a stock t-maxx will beat a stock emaxx in a drag race (only on topend), but an emaxx will kill a t-maxx in a tug-of-war because of it's instant power. BTW, dont even try tugging an e-maxx around with any nitro truck, as it is horrible on your clutch! Plan on buying a new one if you try this.
