RC Traxxas T-maxx wheelie

[orion2020]

havent seen such a perfect tune in a long time good job mate!!!!

[123hobao]

what percent fuel do you use in your tmaxx

[SuperIrish222]

Now that is a fine tuned machine.

[ACDC5540]

oh hell yeah! that was awesome i gotta tune my tmaxx to do that!

[happydays875]

@ACDC5540 you don't have to tune it you just put the wellie bar on and go

[matthewmarrs123]

@happydays875 thats where your wrong some you don't have to put the bar on but some you do have to tune fine tune to get them to do this.

[smileztfs]

@CHAPxKILLA you just need to tune it..Factory break in is rich on the high speed needle.. Lean it out a 1/4 turn at a time until performance doesn't get better then back off a 1/4 turn.. After that, it'll be hard to keep the front wheels on the ground

[CHAPxKILLA]

How do you do a wheelie on a rc truck? I just got a T-MAXX 3.3 and I broken in the engine. But when I accelerate and the front wheels don't lift. Any help?

[oldcyclist1]

@CHAPxKILLA if it is tuned, properly, then you need to tighten the slipper clutch, the tight it is more torque it will have. some people dont like wheelies so they have it looser.

[smileztfs]

Yes maxx is 4wd

[MrMattinater]

Is that 4wd??

[jm300ful]

is that 4 wheel drive

[TehKickShow]

Pause at 0:00 at check in the back of the rc He got extra wheels

[NITROrcCARS1]

@TehKickShow its called a wheelie bar

[rccarsrule1000]

@TehKickShow thats called a whelly bar !

[scbjgs]

i have a 2.5 that i can't get to wheelie

:(

[markomladenovicful]

@scbjgs you need to tune your engine and it will wheelie...and to tune rear suspension...

[TMaxxVids]

learn how to put ya body on and lower the change time on the gear box should change within 1st 10 mtrs of a wheely

[hebeya10]

my savage is so much better its a 7 speed and goes 90 mph

[stelthblend]

@hebeya10 where did you buy and how much did the "7 speed" converstion cost

[kkingss4]

i spent over 450 bucks on my t maxx end nevr learned how to tune it right i would turn the thing and nothing would happen i had alot of fun with it til i crashed it when the remote died andthe truck whent full speed into a wall....... im over rc cars and just bougt me a yz250 dir bike i hope the same doesnt happed again lol

[310smoker]

@kkingss4 i just got one i bought a fail safe 

[firmclock]

hpi sucks traxxas rules

[tredub91]

@firmclock i agree

[stelthblend]

@firmclock agreed

[MrMetalica11]

@firmclock thats true i have the original model rustler with a komodo dragon 19turn motor all i need is a new esc its electric so it only goes around 15mph

[ReturnScroll]

that seems insanely lean, or high RPMS on the clutchbell.

[gunner551]

my is so much better at dose 120 mgh a mile

[808chileboys]

Sick man do you have 4 wd or just rwd? And the suspension are loose or did you put some of those black things??

[88Rangerindanger]

gnar1!!

[THEhpiGUY1]

traxxas suck, hpi rule

[braddlez1]

@THEhpiGUY1 thats what i thought until i bought my savage flux ....hpi is a letdown :(

[MrShock907]

@THEhpiGUY1 Why did you even watch this then.

[firmclock]

@THEhpiGUY1 hpi sucks traxxas rules

[barchengersubieman]

@firmclock hpi offers better durability traxxas offers easier usability theyre both good they just excel in defferent categories

[hgii555]

@THEhpiGUY1 ´NO

[tony4sarah]

@Luke you may be to rich or lean turn you high speed needle ( easiest to see on top) crank all the way in and back it out 2.25 turns. Also a not recommended way I always start mine is plug your pipe for a couple seconds with your finger it's almost like a choke. Usualy you don't have to mess with the low speed needle witch is on the part of carb that moves when you give it gas I am at 1 full turn out from all the way in. Hope it helps!

[tony4sarah]

Bad azz! I got one in the mail (3.3) I have a 2.5 and it alone is sweet! Love em had my 2.5 for 7 years now and still fires right up. Was thinking about revo but I don't race . Mines for ( bashing) playin around.also have a nitro 4 tec really runs good because I never drive it.(stock does 60) love nitro cars although an expensive hobby. I got my 6 year old son starting and driving great!

[trenary100]

Cool video, mine will wheelie sometimes and i got the 2.5!!!

[letsputunuthasrimpon]

i got a t-maxx 3.3 an mine wnt do weelies it jus grips and it goes like a bat outa hell i iant never been beat even wen i raced a bja 5b but mine wnt do weelies

[iamcyberpunk68]

tighten up the rear shocks and lean your low speed needle a hair ,,and you will be doin wheelies chief.

[letsputunuthasrimpon]

ta m8 the guy at the shop i go 2 tells me nuthin should stop it from popin up so yeah thanks for the tips m8

[kotaclark]

i gotta .26 big block in mine

i can do this all day

[trialsmasta357]

i have one but its an older one

[ivanlopez33]

hey can you do a wellie with a traxxas t max 2.5

[RCBIKER123]

yeah just put 33% nitro fuel in and a wheelie bar.

[motleycrue0317]

Can you pop one of the with a T-Maxx 1.5 if I rich it up some...?

[BraydensGasMaxx]

no not enough bottom end

[timmytime1793]

to make more power you would lean it out not richen it

To give it the best chance make the ride height really high and the suspension very stiff in the rear. I also suggest to tighten the slipper very tight like 1/10 turn from closed be sure not to do any jumps with it this tight as it could damage the driveline components

[jaegermiester22]

can the stock 3.3 pop wheelies like that??

[FerrariF430challenge]

mine can

[BraydensGasMaxx]

mine will too u just have 2 get the low end set right... mine will pop one at 1/4 throttle... i kidd you not...

[flyboy32121]

What do you guys mean by the Low end set right... I have mine tuned right but it won't do crazy wheelies like that.

[BraydensGasMaxx]

it depends on how u tune it or how much weight transfer u have, or if u have a rollcage, it is very hard to throw wheelies... read the traxxas tuning for bottom end... if u have any questions, just reply back... :) thanks, Brayden

[RCBIKER123]

yah just put 33% fuel in it and tune it again. make sure the low speed needle is tuned too

[rcislife312]

RICH

[Brandon3087]

that was good but ive seen better

[vlatko973]

BRAVOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[The1J1Kid]

some nice wheelies, whas that a kid doing that?

[freeagent523]

This is ok it would be way better without the wheelie bar

[ieatcrete111]

yeah i know i think wheelie bars are cool cuz u can wheelie a football field if you want to... the only thing is it takes all the skill out of doing a wheelie and theres no risk involved. and what fun is that?

[hackysack60]

is that a stock 2.5 engine?

[erichpostjr2]

That is sick

[iceman050890]

Is that truck hoped up? Or does it come with that power?

[lulu1394]

it comes like that

[RoBtHeQuAdEr]

i think it come with that power

[mschmidt48lonsdale]

nice wheelies

[twowheelsnobrain]

tune the damn thing , i know you did it to wheelie , but damn , it will break soon

[scarletboa]

what is wrong with thr tuning? it seems rich and there is less engine wear and heat when it is richer.

[itstheendjustlook]

yea but to much fuel is as bad as not enough. The meth and nitro will wash the cylinder walls of oil, causing premature failure, a little rich is one thing, that was terriblely rich

[scarletboa]

what the hell are you talking baout? THE OIL THAT LUBRICATES IT IS IN THE FUEL!

overly rich settings dont wash oil off of the engine parts, it lubricates them better then a normal tune would. a normal tune is less fuel consuming, gives better power, and makes the engine run hotter. traxxas engines run too hot and sometimes need to be kept a little richer than a typical race tune. yes, it is very rich in the video, but he still has enough power and the engine will last 10+ gal. like that

[xxCOASTERJUNKxx]

what kind of gas do you use

[niccodih]

Nitrooktan

[majrascal863]

is it normal for them to always break down

[benellis34]

Don't tear up my grass damnit!

[tommycobra33]

[Beamermurr27]

dude how do you keep it from walkin my savage x just wants to walk shen i wheelie it:(

[Andrewgo2]

limited slip diff. Lock up the rear tires with a posi traction diff.

[suzukicrazy]

love the smoke trail lol

[osmulski76]

sick

[FredFan8]

wow it's runnin nice and rich.can't wait ti'll i get one.i have an Exeed rc buggy right now.not a bad car but it's no traxxas t maxx.

[kortt]

I've got one of the origina .17 Tmaxxes. Well, there isn't much original any more as it's been converted to a .21 with titanium hardcore chassis and skids, rpm arms and a whack of other stuff...these dang trucks are tough! Mine has the original tranny with 2 forward and 1 reverse gears, still stock and still rock solid. I had a robinson steel spur but the .21 kept eating pinions so went back to a plastic spur..much cheaper to replace a plastic spur than a clutch bell. :D

Cool wheelies dude!

[traxxasjake11]

cool wheelie

[HondaRider355]

my tmaxx 3.3 did the same ting until one day i went to do 1 and the trany just stripped out

[solidsnake123]

yeah i had the same problem except it was my rear diff,it pretty much shattered everything on the inside lol

[jeepvin]

The 2.5 has a black tranny, that is completly diff than the new grey 3.3 tranny. And a stock black tranny has 2spd forward and 2spd reverse. ChicagoBears1... yeah that steel spur gear is so nice to have, but i also switched out all the internal gears with steel ones. The stock plastic spur held up for a while, untill rocks got stuck in it and knocked some teeth off. Robinson Racing has done a very nice job with their gears, i highly recommend them to anyone.

[jeepvin]

I have the original 2.5 t-maxx, the very first 2.5 had carb problems. So now i put a new 3.3 in it. It was crazy powerfull but would not do wheelies for me. BUT, as soon as i put that resonator pipe on it pulls wheelies easily, couldnt beleive it. I also bought Robinson Racing full steel kit for my tranny, and took the reverse out.

[ChicagoBears1]

Jeepvin...I bought the Robinson Racing spur gear too. That's one of the better upgrades in my opinion. The cheap plastic stock one was garbage.

[mjbooner]

you give gas

[rcbasherz]

i finally did a wheely into second gear today with no wheely bar

[TNXtreme]

cool! my E-Maxx can do that, but I have to hit reverse first

[1993TMAXX]

Does a stock T-Maxx 2.5 have reverse...

[ChicagoBears1]

The T-Maxx in this video looks like a 3.3 but I could be wrong.

To answer your question 1993TMAXX, a stock 2.5 does have reverse. That's what I have...a 2.5 although it is no longer stock, the transmission still is stock though. That thing pulls wheelies like there is no tomorrow, and you don't have to hit reverse first. :-)

[gottogofast24]

Me too! R u shure they have reverse? Mine has a two speed trany. It has first and second gear but no reverse.

Thanks!

[ChicagoBears1]

I'm positive that the Traxxas T-Maxx 2.5 has reverse. I have one. The model that does not come with reverse is the Sportmaxx model. You must have the Sportmaxx, or bought a used T-Maxx on which the reverse gear was removed. I bought the gear that converts the T-Maxx to forward only. i am trying to shave off as much weight as possible. I took off the EZ starter and installed a pull starter. I also bought some Proline wheels and tires, which weigh a lot less than the stocks ones. WHEELIES!

[gottogofast24]

No, I have the box and its the Traxxas T-Maxx 2.5. Because I think when you have a reverse, it takes away one of the foward gears instead of having no reverse and 2 foward gears. Im not shure, I have my remote and it shows the button on it to put it in reverse and i pull the throtle and it doesnt move at all. It maybe because you have a different transmition than I do.

[ChicagoBears1]

If your T-Maxx is bone stock and your box says T-Maxx 2.5 on it, and not Sportmaxx, then you will want to troubleshoot why it does not go in reverse when you hit the switch. Start by changing out your batteries! I have the same transmission as you do.

[gottogofast24]

The owner changed a few things. One person on youtube already told me that if you change it to a reverse tranny, It will go less faster than the one with forward only because forward has 2 gears but you can get an upgraded on that has reverse and 2 gears for forward. He might of changed the tranny, I dont know. I just when and checked on my box and it says, 2 speed forward and reverse. He might of changed the tranny or maybe its because he changed it to the transmitter that the savage uses.

[szalbika]

latom magyar video! (ugyes gepezet)

[AYCTB]

Try holding that in reverse on pavement

[rshillz]

wheelies are so easy with the bar..try wheelies without it like i do :)

[fOrNaLL]

nice :D

[joeldude76]

all t maxx can if its tuned right mine will do a wheelie across my yard and its like 50 feet long maby more

[that1CRAZYGUY]

try without the wheely bar and learn to balence it

[neo3nfsmw]

how do you do that man!!! amaizing

[jonny5spliff]

well done nicely tuned

[monsterjamcc]

nicely tuned well done

[jatotraxxas]

do you have a list of the upgrades if you did upgrade it?

[23tv23]

hey what kind of gas are you running.

[snowmobilerules]

nise

[plyxrs]

igot a traxxas t maxx 2.5r and mine wont do wheelys anybody know why?

[c0ld0ne]

cause its not a 3.3 lol

[plyxrs]

it should because the 2.5r is what i got and 2.5r is the same as 3.3 but it has 2.5 looks

[cupooterluvr]

2.5 r is a .15 3.3 is a .20 3.3 makes about .8 more HP than 2.5

[plyxrs]

well it shouldent matter cause i got 2.5r truck but im running the 3.3 motor in it with the saem 3.3 gears so its really 3.3 then correct?

[cupooterluvr]

yes

[bignick4591]

i just got my t-maxx. can tell me wtf a glow plug is?

[fromdaboz707]

it is what helps start your car it is in the motor and when they go bad u need 2 buy a new one

[Linky005]

sure a glow plu is the like nut thing inside the block on ur engine u put a glow plug charger on it 2 spark (glow plug is a spark plug basically)

[TruthfulDishonesty]

Damn man, that thing is tuned perfectly!! Very nice, keep it up!! :)

[marshallvalvestate]

amazing tuning, running so smooth and still got the trail of blue smoke, you must be a very conservative guy cuz most people just pin it and beat there trucks

[yamahakid10]

thats tuned really well

[6650roger]

all that power and still running cool. Nice 3.3

[95666]

man nice, getting that power while its running nice and rich. (cool)

[451duster]

how much can u buy those for?
