Mojave Finally got my hands on a heavily modified Mojave EXB HW 1100KV MAX6

[sebcbien]

Hello,
I bought second hand on ebay (not very smart, I know ) a Mojave EXB.
The previous owner did made a lot of upgrades.
The motor is the HW 5687 1100KV paired with a max6.
He removed LSD diffs and put blx diffs
The motor mount is a pps
Scorched Rc inner fenders
M2C shock caps and wheel nuts
Unbreakable body
Dumbo RC with Gyro
...

The car drives very well (tested on wet paved road) and I can easily power slide, it's definitively fun.
One HR wheel hub has play on one ball but the nut to tight it is rounded. Do you recommend tu buy the same HR (sold by two) or it's not really worth it ?
The rear right shock shaft is bended.
It's on 8S and without batteries it weight 7.1kg (15.6lbs), 8.1kg (17.85lbs) with batteries on 8S.
That's quite heavy.
I'm thinking to go back on a more conventional 6S build with the Max6, and I would keep the 1100KV for my X-Maxx.
What kind of motor would be the best for not extreme bashing in moderate temperature climate (Belgium)?
It seems Rcdude 81 is happy with the stock blx on the RTR and Hobbystar 4092 1480Kv on the EXB. I read also that 1650Kv is a good choice.
What do you think ?
Any other thing I could have missed ?
Thanks !

I dunno how much you paid but the heavy mods makes it look “beefy.” Awesome ride man!

I’d get the 1650, I had planned to build a Mojave EXB and had already bought the max6/1650 combo for it.

Max6 an tp4050-2100kv run great together.any tp4050 would be a great choice.can handle 8s also.

As I have already all my batteries with XT90, I plan to get rid of those QS8-S connectors.
It seems that my XT90 are enough on my O8S so it should also accommodate on this rig.
Am I right ?

you need these https://www.amainhobbies.com/hot-ra...q5ap0lSV0b3PAG5esp71Qbub-KzLlsPIaAoHjEALw_wcB for the pillow balls not the whole hub I think
