jnev, can you check to see how much room there is for motor clearance? And how the tranny is bolted onto the chassis as well.

The 3.3 is 525mm the E-Revo is 582mm long, thats 2.26" longer! That def puts this in the 1/8 scale bracket @ 22.9" long

Wheelbase might only be .4 bigger but overall length is quite a bit more

I want one, but have no money lol

jnev, def see how big of packs it will take, and maybe steal one for me? =P

I think it's much longer because of the wing.. 3.3 doesn't have wing right? If you compare erevo and the platinum ( 572mm), then the difference in the length is not that much..but still its longer

Such a thing was predictable.

Don't get me wrong, I'm VERY happy that the E-Revo has come out. I hope it ushers in a new wave of Electric racing at modern tracks. Personally however I'm a bit disappointed. I'd like to see a "Platinum" version which has all the hop-ups that the Platinum does. As it stands, I think I'm still going to convert a platinum rather than breaking all the parts on the E-Revo first.

I'm a little disappointed too. They already have an MT with dual Titans, time for Traxxas to release a RTR brushless Revo with all the 'fixins right out of the box. I do like the nice battery trays though.

I too think that a converted vehicle is more fun and unique. Still, it's nice to see Traxxas isn't deaf...

I'll probably wait for the "platinum" ERevo since I'd plan to race it. I don't want to buy an E-Revo and have to hop it all up, especially if traxxas decides to release a racier version.

On the note of releasing a racer version of the E revo, that would be great for bringing back electric mt racing. I can see an fully upgraded E Revo ,but with no ESC, Motor and Radio. That way we could drop whatever we want.

I think this will answer your second question:

Hmmm, I wonder when Sike will be selling off the chassis with the tranny?

Wonder how many parts from the revo will bolt up to this new chassis ? Maybe just buy the chassis seperatly and swap everything over and have an e-revo ? Atleast you can upgrade to the newer tranny at the same time !

Just found this pic of the MMM in the new E-Revo:

I'll bet its like the T and E Maxx. The front and rear are the same, but everything in the middle is different. I'm sure the nitro revo front and rear ends will bolt straigt to the E chassis. They would be silly to change it and have to sets of parts.

Do you want one? :lol:

The more I look at this new chassis design, the more I like it. :yes:

It gives me..........ummmmmmmm..............I dears!

LOL

Oh dear God no, no , nooooooooo..................


I like the Erevo though, just a shame about the battery trays limiting the size of the batts you can fit, but a little Dremel surgery should fix that.
