I would not take batteries larger than 90x34x19.

Why not go for some extra power with the 3s equivalent?

And yes,...

Definitely....

Seconded... I really need stiffer springs but I don't find a shop who already has them in stock.

These do fit, 2500mAh in parallel.

I think most people don't bash MaxAmps for their performance or their marketing, I mean they're the first ones to offer matched packs, NiMh and Lipos, for all Traxxas cars. What people dislike about...

There's nothing wrong with Zippies. I'm not sure about their safety but performance wise they're just fine. Not top notch, but okay.

Capacity(A) * C-rating = max amps

2.2A * 15 = 33A
2.2A * 20 = 44A

Then you never expect to break a diff in the Revo/E-Revo? The diffs are bound to die someday... due to a bad landing, too much power, shifted mesh, whatever.

Man, I was really worried when I read the first three posts... fluid too thick, come on :D

What most people (especially newcomers) fail to do right is the gear mesh (which has been mentioned...

Amen to that! ;)

Edit: 8mm axles are definitely a good choice. RD Racing even has a set of axles for the Revo that come with the needed bearings to bolt them in directly. You need new hex adapters...

That's definitely a good idea.

I'm driving nylon spurs in my brushless setup for almost a year now and I haven't wasted even one of them (I switched between different sizes). I also tried the RR...

Nope, no option. I'd never recommend this.

The ESC is rated (like the VXL) for 3s. Period.

I'm not sure if it will prevent running 4s at all or if it just gets too hot. The BEC will probably not be able to handle the 4s either and it...

It sure is normal... you can of course put in some stiffer springs and increase ground clearance but then you can hardly drive straight anymore without flipping over. It's all about balance between...

I'd be careful with this. I highly respect Dan's efforts but the "overdrive" might stress your titans enough to fry them. Of course it should only shift to the more stressful second gear when it is...

I had severe glitches with my DX3R receiver until I noticed that the antenna cable was broken because I left the tip uncovered.

I had some larger (normal sized) 4500er Team Orion rocket packs and all I can say is that those performed great so I suppose Team Orion knows what they're doing ;)

Edit: But you do know that you...

The difference for the sways mounted in the front aren't that big, but the way the back sway bars are mounted is quite a difference. The Tekno sway bars get mounted on top of the shocks just like the...

The main problem is that the E-Revo has a longer wheelbase which makes it hard to fit any kind of short course truck body. The SC10 body is too wide and the Slayer/Slash bodies are too short.

Anyone considered these ******* batts? Are they really 15mm thick? I kinda doubt it...

I wouldn't say though, that the Tekno Sways are better than the Traxxas ones... but find out for yourself. I for one had quite some trouble with the Tekno ones and I'm planning on switching back to...

I think the main (and about only) downside is - ironically - its size. It will not behave like its larger brother and it will not handle as well. The smaller a car gets, the more it usually hops and...

Great slideshow through your build process :)

A few points from my side though:
- I would try to get different batteries. The way you installed them now is very... creative but I - personally -...

No one really said WHY it shoud be better. And don't come with "easily programmable" or "doesn't get as hot"... that's bull**** (sorry). I programmed my MMM once and that's it... not sure why there's...
