The max6 combo was on sale for $200 on Black Friday, and it got me thinking about upgrading. The stock blx system will do standing backflips, go about as fast as non-belted tires will allow, and it seems like it will push the differentials to their limit.
Are there real significant advantages to going with the larger motor and esc other than maybe less heat? I don’t see how more power can be put down without popping wheels and diffs. Is the difference more noticeable on the longer wheelbase platforms that don’t already wheelie on command up to top speed?
It is hard to get a sense of the power increase through video reviews. The result looks pretty similar to the stock system, but I imagine less throttle is being used.
While I am asking questions, what is normally the bottleneck on the stock blx system. Is it the esc, motor, or battery?
