Not your average Emaxx build

Boy these forums are jumpin lately,lol.Its a good thing i have a few other builds lined up.NO one knows the weight of the stock new version chassi? To livin things up a bit here's an action shot of my home brew hardened metal grinder at work on the input gear(finally used the lathe...kinda).the gear mesh is prefect on the tranny but the metal gears & larger idler have added some rotating mass to the tranny.I suspect it will put more stress on the elecs during startup & breaking than i want but fortunately once i drop in a slipperential in Ill just have to build an extra large scale crawler to stick this in.(maybe resurrect & redesign the orange Cmaxx crawler from the pic on page 1,the chassi has been collecting dust in the shop for years & could use some action, the internal slipper was a last minute change & i have a plan for mounting the motor to the tranny with a mounting plate that will allow for easy removal & mesh adjustment just need some more fab time,been installing a new leech line for a neighbor the past few days along with the normal stuff so times been short..Oh i did get the servo mount figured out also.

Im back,Iv been MIA for a bit as the warm weather brought on lots of issues with work,since last post i think all iv been able to do was lighten the tranny case,mount the motor & mock it all up,my only hold up from a test run is the gen3 slipper i purchased was bored crooked on the backing plate,so much that the spur jumps off the pinion completely,haven't got around to getting another,but here it is so far.
