Hey guys sorry if this question has been asked before but i have been considering purchasing an e revo 2.0 this winter and was wondering if it was better to run 4s or 6s on the e revo. top speed is not seriously important i just want to do jumps, flips and generally destroy my yard and wife's flower gardens. I am concerned about high temperatures and destroying tires on 6s.
With 6s will most likely come a lot more broken parts. On 4s the erevo can be fun but won’t break as many parts. If you are a excellent driver you might get away with 6s and no issues, but most likely 4s will be where you want to start. JMHO.
yeah that is what i have been thinking after watching some videos and reading some reviews. I am used to driving 2 wheel drive this will be my first 4x4 so i would still say i am still a novice![]()
Thanks for the info, 4s is going to be the way im going to go. Still doing my research on what vehicle i am going to get but i keep coming back to the e revo

The new erevo is absolutely capable of handling 6s, having said that for someone new to the platform and how it drives, 4s is a great starting point. You won't be disappointed, the 2.0 is the embodiment of what this machine should be. I run 4s on the old and 6s on the new. It takes a beating and asks for more!
Its alright son I'll fix it when you break it
As a new owner of a E-Revo who already ran into a small tree and bent (I bent it back..) a push rod on 4S! I'd suggest sticking to 4s, Its stupid fast and capable with 4s, As others have said and I keep reading my self 6S is just gonna lead to broken parts a lot faster.
The truck on 6s is crazy fast as has been said. It takes a lot of self control on the trigger. Just going to full throttle from a crusie can and will spin you out on the wrong surface. For what you have stated you want to do, 4s is going to work great. 30 mph is fast in that big boy. and if and when you want to go faster its just 2 batteries and you are good to go.
I fix things till they can't be fixed.
+1 on this comment. Old e revo sometimes broke diffs on even 4s I’ve heard, but the new one I have yet to break any on extreme 6s bashing. I did break one but it was from a brutal motor failure that completely locked up the drivetrain at 50mph.
I recommend getting the new one over the old one unless you’re getting it ridiculously cheap. Just my $0.02... it’s better for the long run. Also I support the decision of starting on 4s.
I’ve just bought one of these and I’d recommend both 4s and 6s. 4s is a lot of fun, you’d be surprised. It’s very controllable and still very quick. 6s is rapid and you don’t have to go balls out with it, it’s handy having the extra power if you are doing jumps / backflips.
