Emaxx Question

[netsmithUK]

Just got one thanks to a trade through the club and I'm looking for some help.

First - does anyone have a manual I can download/get a copy of?

Planning on stripping and rebuilding with shiney metal bits []

Second - I see it has a third channel to change the gearing but I just wondered what the two gears were. ie if the servo arm is turned right back to the gear box pushing the rod in is that faster acceleration/lower top speed or the other way around. Does it really make much difference. I tried it just running the wheels in the air and couldn't see much change. Also I'm assuming that you don't change gears at full pelt right?

Third/Last - Whats the best shock hole on the lower arms for general bashing and jumping. As it is at the moment the shocks are mounted in the farthest towards the wheel hole and it gives the truck a very low stance.

Any help would be great.

1st - You can download the exploded views & manuals here:

2nd - When the shift linkage pushes the rod in, it's low/1st gear faster acceleration/lower speed. You're supposed to let off the throttle momentarily to shift.

3rd - For bashing, the pair of holes furthest from the wheels are recommended. For racing, the pair of holes closest to the wheels are recommended.

be carefull with the metal parts, i have a e maxx and t maxx, if you bash something the metal has no "give" to it, and will break very easy. the nylon parts are much stronger and flex better, so your less likely to break stuff, ive been using rpm stuff and works well, i had almost a full alum, emaxx and the bulkheads always broke and bumpers always got torn off.
