Hobbywing MAX6 G2 RC ESC Is Here And You NEED To See This!

This is the Hobbywing Max6 g2. Think its better than the Castle mmx8s? Will this be the perfect ESC for your Traxxas or Arrma Basher? Let's find out!

We installed the Max6 and 4990 G2 combo in our Kraton 6s V5 and it has impressed us so far. We are running it on 6s and it is a rocket. We need to do more testing, but so far it is amazing! And the bluetooth works just fine, at least on a Samsung android phone.

I ce had the max 6 g2 sensored sitting here and just ordered the motor since they pair so well . We ll see sometime this week . I think I saw some comments about maybe needing to up the pinion ? I’m running 12t with spectrum stock right now . Thanks for helping 🙏

Installing mine into my Xmaxx as I watch this! LOL! New sub too!

[mathewgarrard]

Wow looks good I'm looking to get the corally asuga xlr roller I'm thinking of putting a max 6 in it but I don't know what to do should I just go for aax 8 or max 6 or should I wait for the new max 6 G2???

[Macgyver]

I'm looking at the G2 combo systems for my 4S outcast build. Wish they all had the bluetooth built in. I would get this for one of the EXB outcast or kraton.

Hopefully more ESCs in the future will be Bluetooth enabled.

I already have Bluetooth enabled adapters, gps, chargers & temps sensors...

Would really like to get this with the 5690 for my kraton the bec seems pretty sweet

Hey I just installed my Max 6 G2 and put in 20/46 hardened gears (Robinsons and GPM) . Gotta wait 24 hours for the loctite to cure.

What punch setting did you use? This goes up to 9 instead of 5 😅

Im Running stock motor too.

I'm hoping Hobbywing will cone out with an upgraded version of their Max4 ESC. Capable of 16S. Yeah, I know, I like pushing my RCs to the Max. No pun intended.

[ninthislandrc]

Be interesting to see a Max6 G2 vs XLX2 head-to-head (running comparable HW & Castle motors).

[XbotLife]

How would this go with an Xmaxx with stock motor? And is this actually better than the regular Max 6 V3?

For me, max 5 is not an option due to size, but this seems perfect

[WildBoyRC]

nice!!! i smoked my other max6 combo so ill definetly be getting this. great vid bro

[cjchannelRC]

Finally the new Max 6 is out, I might have to buying the 4990 1, 650kv combo for my XO-1 and maybe my future limitless V2 or other cars and the 5690 1, 250KV combo for my X-Maxx. Now i feel like an idiot for buying my old 5687 motor earlier this month but at least if these work and there are no fires or any other issues i don't have to buy a Firma 160 for my X-Maxx. Can't wait to get my hands on some of these combos for myself.

Holy shit. Imagine on Traxxas sledge!!!! What a monster combo.

[dylanwhite]

This would roll out right when I bought a max5 g2 for my Xrt. Now I have to debate if I want to do a max6 in my Xmaxx or a max5 g2 again

[abula]

It seems that max6g2 and 4990 combo are gonna be one of the best combo for bashing X Maxx. What do you think?

[RcPlayer-ttvw]

Me too only thing is I lose durability with g2 lineups. The micro wires inside the cable, treat cable well alot going on in there . My g1 I’ve gotten years and never burned one up

[captaincouldverc]

I've got an older, non sensored HW 4985/1650kv motor, that I want to put in my kagama, but i think the torox 185 won't handle that big of a 6s motor.
Really debating on what 160a esc i should get.
Any suggestions?

[ChrisHarmon]

Have a max5 g2 with 780kv hobbystar 56112 on 12s outcast, and even without a fan it runs surprisingly cool. Wish it included bluetooth to see the amps its drawing. Looks like the max6 is gonna be fine for 8s 1/5 scale.

[krms]

How will these compare to castle monster 8x not sure which to get i will b bashing n some speed runs
