Default 2 speed tran

Is there an automatic 2 speed transmission for an emaxx?

None that I have heard of.

I don't see the point of a two speed on an electric. It won't benefit an electric that much.

The E-maxx comes with a manual 2 speed that is controlled by a third channel . TC3mafia was asking if they make an automatic 2 speed so you don`t have to manually shift .

Yes, I know. It is inside the gearbox. Link me to the automatic two speed tranny.

if you wanted to get creative you could try to wire an optidrive from a revo or tmaxx into the emaxx so that the opti controls the shifting servo. I personally don't see the point as manual is much nicer cause you can select when to switch.
