Just installed the pro scale lights and rock lights and was nervous I couldn’t use them if I upgraded the motor. Thanks for the video! I’ll be doing this eventually

If anyone is worried about running direct battery, this is from the manual for the light kit, referring to the JST plug off of the kit’s power module: “to Traxxas XL-5 HV Electronic Speed Control (ESC) or direct battery power source up to 3s LiPo or 12.6V”
-
Motor leads are so turn signals don’t turn ON unless motor not turning. Receiver cable runs brake lights and reverse lights. You can buy male/female Traxxas connectors with JST😮 lead coming off to power something. So you don’t void motor warranty.

I just got the fusion pro on Black Friday special also, thanks for making this video it will be a great help for the install 🤘😎🍻

If you have a 3d printer or a friend with one. There's an STL file you can get for a switch mount for the fusion switch that screws into your factory TRX-4 ESC holes. Super clean install and the switch fits in like a glove. No tape or adhesive needed.

Liked and subbed! I have the Grey one. I haven't installed the lights yet but hopefully soon. I also have the hobbywing 2in1 2300kv as well! Man, that's an awesome motor!

I learned a lot from your video my brother, good job.
-
Thank for the tips👍🏾🤙🏾

Howdy and Great Vid, What did you use for the boxliner? and is there a reason you did not just piggy bach the L.E.D harness to the 3070x Traxxas connector .

Will this same method work on the traxxas UDR light kit for a non traxxas esc?
-
That have a built in BEC? I have one installed currently, if it does, I'll have to remove the old one?
-
Lol, thanks for this video, definitely not going for the pro kit with a Fusion Pro, way too complicated.

I have basically the same setup (hobbywing, maxx link cable, power directly tapped from the 3s LiPo), but after a minute or so all the functions of the lights stop working. Lights just stay on. No turn signals, no brake or reverse lights. If I turn off the ESC and turn on, everything works fine for a while and then stops again after a minute or so. Seems like there is some disturbance in the communication between receiver and the light module. It also stops responding in the app on my phone. Any ideas?
-
will this keep it waterproof with all the soldering???
-
What light kit are you using ? Tra8035 or tra8035r ?
-
where do the rock lights plug in?
-
hi m8 i did exactly the same with the fusion pro 2300kv and the lights work but i cant switch on hig and low beams, only the halo lights rear and brake and reverse and blinkers work. even have the maxx link cable and the app but even in the app it doesnt work, the app shows all functions but when i switch them they do nothing 🙂
-
Are your turn signal working
-
When running this setup do all the light features work without the app?
-
Would i need the wireless module traxxas part number 6511, in order to get the lights to work this way utilizing the max link cable?
