^^^ as we've all known for 2+ weeks... lol, the slash and e-revo come out at the same time, wow, traxxas is just taking over RC here!!

[jonelzoe]

well sorrrrry i just learned that it was out :D

[pedeboi364]

lol, just gotta keep with the RC times, everything changes super quickly in the RC industry and i understand, it's REALLY hard to get everything that is going on and keep track of it and still keep up good grades in school LOL

[Mad Racer]

Gonna wait for someone to review it. Might get one...

[pedeboi364]

getting one no matter what, and i'll beat jonel's emaxx with it... or i could just use my current pede... i love money :D

[Taylor]

im getting it tomarrow. :D

[LSXEric]

Taylor u know what battery u useing? CBP's, trinty, or Venom raceing?

[Taylor]

Im getting venom 7 cell 4200mah odd double pack(or flat they fit) from rcplanet.com there $54 a piece there im getting 2. the store online i order from doesn't have them and i have to buy my stuff from somewhere else cause my parents are going on vaction in 2 days. so gotta get my stuff before they leave.:D

[Microdriver624]

hmm, would it be more expensive to get a brushless E-Revo, or just convert one. Now the question is, is the actual Traxxas E-Revo better?

[Taylor]

in my opinion yes its durable out of your mind and probably cheaper to start with the erevo cause the motor mounts and stuff is already there and no converting any thing.;)

[Microdriver624]

hmm, but wut about the 400 for actually buying the truck? I think that they would be about the same price. o wait buying a revo for 480 and thenbuying the conversion is way more expensive. Dang. O well, i guess ill just convert my nitro revo when i hav enough money

[rcjwp]

My revo 2.5 is converted to brushless, nice not having the mess like nitro engines make.

[Microdriver624]

wait does urs do crazy wheelies RCJWP? i would think that it would be out of control unless u had a wheelie bar.

Yes It will pop a wheely on comand and hold it for however long the road is. There is a huge wheely bar on the back of the truck. Here is a pic of the truck.

[Microdriver624]

Wut motor is that? i was thinkin of going brushless with a neu 1515/1.5D, MMM ESC, and maybe two 3S 5000 mah Maxamps lipos wired in series. But thatll be like, 1300 dollars:(

[rcjwp]

This is the motor and esc combo. This goes for 265$ on towerhobbies. And I am currently using just six cell nimah packs and it has a kick!

[Microdriver624]

thats a nice system. Wow, its running on only 6 cells? i wonder wut its like on two 3 cell lipos? Anyway, thats a nice setup u got there.

[rcjwp]

Thanks. Yes, its only running a six cell setup and its performance is unbelievable! I think that the performance with 3 cell lipos would be off the chart:D Here is a more recent pic. Only using a 1800 mah Venom battery and an old radio shack 2000 mah battery. Not very long run times but performance is awsome.

[LSXEric]

Man Nicd's too! WOW! Thats great.

[rcjwp]

Ya, Ill have to get up a video sooner or later.;)
