M2C RACING... THE MASTERS OF THEIR CRAFT
Absolutely man
wow great stuff. I can not wait to get ahold one for my self. I did machine shop for 4 years in high school, so I always appreciate good machining. Really is great stuff.
Finally got mine installed thanks for the help …
Awesome, it’s a great mount and has been working really good
Fantastic job with this overview and install David 😱. Very clear and straight forward explanation of all the key points and reasons this is a must upgrade!!! Traxxas would love everyone to buy only their products, but that's ridiculously limiting for guys that want bigger power and performance 🚀🚀. So grateful for the beautiful options M2C comes up with 😍. The wheel hexes look so Badass 👀. The Sledge (like Big Bertha) will reach it's true potential thanks to Mitch and Avery. Great job with this Brother!!!! 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊
Nice,👍 can't wait to see the chassis.
great explanation, can't wait until they get in production, same as the chassis ....
m2c did a great job as usual
Nice stuff ,I just waiting on the release of the pins for the Xmaxx that's one thing I really want.keep up and God bless my friend
Man that’s awesome!! Can’t wait for m2c to drop this! 🔥
finally! cool products! as always!
Nice! She’s got bling now😎m2c for the win💪🏻👊🏻😎
Good job bud thumbs 👍
M2c have done it again 🤣 now the sledge is getting better and better thanks to m2c that all looks so nice nice now let's see how she goes 😉👊💪🤙
M2C to the rescue!! This is a crucial upgrade on this truck, Based on my observation about the motor mount. Very well done rundown of the kit and installation of the mount Bro David. Now where the hell is my Sledge! LoL 😂. Awesome stuff brother!
Hey man have a question I need help with. I keep stripping my grub screws on my 800kv hw on my outcast 8s exb 8mm shaft i believe. If I drilled the motor shaft and used a limitless grubsvrew where it'd go thru the shaft hole just big enuf to fit the grubpin. Good idea bad idea?
@@reid9041 Bad idea. no disrespect. You will automatically weaken the motor shaft. I have stripped a grub screw before. Make sure your 2.5 hex driver is in good condition and apply a bit of pressure forward as you tighten the grub screw.
looks ❤❤❤❤, tip notch stuff as always, can bearly wait for mine❤. Very good video, explaining ❤❤❤
Thanks bud
I know you can't wait to get out with the sledge, but honestly I think I'm more excited to see what she's like. Definitely agree on the quality on that mount... Beautiful job you've done bud. 😉💯.... So looking forward to where ever your gonna take it either the skate pk or that dirt bike track.
I just got home from its first test a few minutes ago and it performed amazing
just got that same motor in mine. didn't know what to do on gearing so I guess with 19/52. hope it doesn't get too hot
Well, thee goes your Traxxas Sponsorship! Proprietary Garbage! 🤣 great how to, now the sledge may be worth getting for us mailbox and portapotty killers! Can’t wait to see you test her out! You are the man Bars&Tone!!! 👍👊💯👏👏👏👏
LOL well it’s a good thing I wasn’t looking for Traxxas sponsorship. Honestly dude I’m not looking for any sponsorship the monitization is cool but I never started this or doing this for money. That’s what my job is for LOL
@@BarstoneRC I just shut of my monetization. They give you 20$ for a million views, so it’s not even worth it🤣! I didn’t realize I still was monetized. We both just have fun and do it for the fun. Unless we’re driving your xmaxx! 🤣 I’m sorry you have bad luck with that. Keep on killin it! 👍
More awesome parts from M2C, the Sledge is ready to get some ass again 👍
We been waiting for this one!
I like everything about this thing except for the zip tie on the motor to the rear support plate.
This is the prototype buddy and I just got off the phone with them and there’s some other modifications that are being made
@@BarstoneRC When do you think this will be release?
@@BarstoneRC oh I understand man, don’t take that the wrong way I was just thinking out loud!
Really liking the way it looks so far!
Hey…leave that guide piece in (longer screws) and even more gearing options. 😜
Thank God for M2C. It is pretty sad though. at the price point of the Sledge. people should not have to go through all of this. You just turned a $800.00+ Truggy into I'm going take a guess $1k+. 💩 at this point I'm Surprised M2C Racing doesn't have there own line of Busher's. Thank's for Sharing David. Awesome vid looking forward to seeing it ripping around. 💯🔥💯👍💯🍻
Well look at arrma chassis...if you want a arrma tough you definitely need an m2c chassis and the ones for the 8s are not cheap
Arrma needs to do a collab with m2c like they did with the tlr typhon
@@tysemilicia3931 that would be an expensive rc
@@onemansvideos2134 considering most arrmas have to get a m2c chassis anyway I don’t think it would be too bad in the long run
@@tysemilicia3931 its just strange that m2c 7075 holds up better than arrma 7075
I bet the Traxxas design team are pulling their hair out watching this
LOL I hope so, getting rid of all their goofy proprietary stuff
Id like to see you put the new 2022 max8 esc in it
Looks awesome might do this to my sledge are the m2c parts available in the UK
There is at least one or two dealers that supply their stuff over there
Great video. Thanks M2C make’s the best looking innovative stuff. Tuff too. What size motor can is that??
They’re doing a new design and we’re gonna find out what all motors fit
Thanks for the props! now go try and break it!! lol
Lol I will!!!!
Awesome mount, does it allow you to fit a bigger motor like a 1650kv or still same amount of room forcing you to stick with a 2000/2200 kv type motor?
Well this is the first revision mount, they’re sending me a different one and there’s going to be some stuff coming for more room
Those motor mount holes Traxxas did almost looks like a nitro engine could bolt up there
Yeah it was some bizarre set up
man all that added weight.
question wont that zip tie melt? (motor do get hot)
The zip tie was just there during the mounting stage and no it shouldn’t melt but again everyone has to remember these are the prototypes.
Awesome upgrades from m2c as always 😊 what kv is that motor? I have the 1650kv rocket in my Mojave it’s a pretty strong motor for the price!
It’s the 1700kv
Which model should I buy that’s similar to the max6 ?
@@Shellzwick what do you mean? Which model? You mean for a motor? For which Rc?
There’s some Chinese knock off brands out there, but honestly, I would go with the Mac six
bye, congratulations! keep sharing your wonderful videos. I wanted to know the motor and a 1700kv but the circumference and the length what is it? and if you can help me tell me how much space in centimeters there is to install a maximum length of engine thanks and congratulations I await your news. Greetings
I’ll see if I can get those whenever I return home
@@BarstoneRC I would be very grateful. I await your reply, thank you very much
@@BarstoneRC ?
Length 75 mm not counting the shaft
Diameter 40mm
I have the same kit just curious where you came up with instructions
I never had instructions I just put it together. But they have lots of videos on all of their kits on their website.
Hey man have a question I need help with. I keep stripping my grub screws on my 800kv hw on my outcast 8s exb 8mm shaft i believe. If I drilled the motor shaft and used a limitless grubsvrew where it'd go thru the shaft hole just big enuf to fit the grubpin. Good idea bad idea?
Clean everything really well with alcohol or carburetor cleaner make sure you you’re using a flat end grub screw and use red Lo tight
Okay so do they sell a fan mount for the motor mount and how much more is it? I would rather not spend any extra and just stick to the gearing chart they have and not have to buy anything extra get a built in fan mount and not have to worry about the plastic brace because if you use said gearing chart the plastic piece will work for those. Not a must do more people have not had issues with the stock motor mount than have had issues with it.
I haven’t heard anything about the fan mount yet but I can see if there is plans?
How much will it be. I do want those parts please
I have none of that information yet
Are you still using factory steering servo? Has it been working well for you?
Yeah I still have the factory servo and it’s been working good.
Hi Mate could you do me a favour? How long are the button head screws on top that hold the top motor mount down as I bought used amd has come without them? Thanks
I’m not at home right now but if you’re talking about the ones that mount or hold down the motor mount they’re usually about 3/4 of an inch long
Why is this a prototype seems perfectly fine?
They’re going to fine-tune it and make it perfect.
Whole never level of a cnc machine enter the measurements an let it cut an some aluminum polish an BAM
Traxxas R&D guys make 100k a year and were all just ripping out the design haha epic
Well I think they need to go back to school lol
@@BarstoneRC or fired 🤔 😳 😐 😬
Hello from southeast alaska do you have any stickers for my rock crawlers?
I do shoot me an email
barsandtonerc@yahoo.com
Did they give a estimated price for the mount?
I haven’t heard any info on that part yet
So how would I use a fan with this mount
I would think a sideways low-profile fan would work, I never run fans really on any of my cars, so I never really take account for that space
Do you have part #s for these parts

What's the pitch on a gear mean.. Here's why I ask..My pinion gear is narrower than my spur and does the pitch have to do with that lol?..Guess I could Google it🤣
I think there mod1
Where can I order The M2C PARTS I WANT to order some stuff for my traxxas XMAXX ?? Can you get it off Amazon??
m2cracing.net/
Thanks
Is that a 1650kv motor
No that’s the stock motor
I'm First Biatches!!!! Yeah!!!
Hahahahaha
Holy shit. Get life.
Ask an you shall receive lol
Indeed buddy lol
@@BarstoneRC great video! Now I feel confident in buying a sledge.
I just got home from testing this mount out and it performed awesome
Facts !!!
for the price of this,u would think traxxas would be capable of making a mount like how m2c does…..🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻
Well then it wouldn’t be proprietary and they wouldn’t make you use all of their crap lol
I just got mine in and they no longer include the plate to secure the tail end of the motor with the original 2 screws and zip tie. The tail end just floats in the air now, not sure I care for that. The M2C installation video doesn't show it being used either... czcams.com/video/RFpJr3aDaiA/video.html
Yeah this was the prototype that we were sent to test out they now have a cradle style that you can get if it’s needed.
@@BarstoneRC yeah that's what I figured. I ended up taking the drill template bar and bolting it under the tail of the motor in the original back two motor mount slots. Then I put a thin adhesive backed cushion on top of the bar. It makes a decent little cradle for the tail of the motor to rest on. Ran the whole setup last night for the first time and had no issues at all with the gears/mesh. That's a first because I've lost mesh and/or broken gear teeth every single time I've taken it out since I took it out of the box. Thank you M2C!
too bad they haven't come up with a solution for that cheap tierip... that detracts from the installation...
Well this is just a prototype the final set up doesn’t even use this support it has a different style
get rid of that piece of chit
This car is great.
