New "Traxxas Crawler"
 
Saw this pic on the back of a r/c mag. Seems as if Traxxas wants to be added to the crawler seen...

rootar 08.13.2008 09:09 PM

Takedown 08.13.2008 09:13 PM

Haha, I wish they'd re-release a 1/5 of some sort. I think it'd be killer.

heard it 2 days ago on RCC

I bet its something more of a cross breed - just based on the "One truck" statement. Didn't Slayden or someone else "sponsored" by Traxxas once make a crawler out of a Revo that they had in their projects section??

On Edit:
Found it. http://www.traxxas.com/support/kb_se...500&artlang=en
But after looking at it, its really nothing more than an extended wheelbase, wider offset rims, and lower gearing.

Nitros can't crawl!

brushlessboy16 08.13.2008 11:45 PM

has anyone though of the e-revo crawler... duh

rootar 08.13.2008 11:54 PM

good greif i hope its not, lets see something NEW, not another 10 part change over from another platform that they already have.

TexasSP 08.14.2008 12:02 AM

I really have a hard time seeing a revo based crawler without some serious design changes, but who knows. It has definitely peaked my interest though.

brushlessboy16 08.14.2008 12:02 AM

they havent made a "new" truck in ages

slayer is a revo
e-revo is a low buck g3r, revo suspension and maxx driveline
slash is a rustler with a different chassis
All tmaxxas are the same truck with cosmetic changes and different motors
redone the villain 3 times
nitro rustler and pede redone
jato redone
revo and revo 3.3
rustler xl1, xl5, vxl
when was the last new design they put out?

The slash is a rustler/stampede hybrid, not a bad thing, but still...

Yeah, I wasn't really thinking when I said that.... :lol:

I could be confused ( a few to many tequilas tonight :na::mdr:)but didn't Traxxas have an add like that ages ago and it just dissapeared , or was it similar but for maybe the Slash before it's release.

Come to think of it, I remember an add like that over 2 years ago. I don't quite remember what it was, but I remember that it was really vague and had some sort of tire tracks...
