New Traxxas CVDs for Maxx and Revo?
 

Anyone seen these yet? I found this add on the back cover of RC Car Action. It looks like the trraxxas brand of CVD's for the T-Maxx 3.3 and Revo. I cant find any info on the web about them yet so I scanned this from the magazine.

They look pretty nice. Rubber boots on both sides. Anyone seen these yet or know anything about them?

And my post about the price is there too.

Damn It Squee.... Always one step ahead of me:018:

He is all over it hautz. :D

do you guys know what kind of performance these have. Are they good and will hold up to brushless. Do you think the new design will work better or worse.

No one has them yet, so no one can tell you anything about them. Only guesses. and guessing for durability is not an option.

Do they fit the 3.3 or 2.5 version. It looks 3.3 but could be the pic.

Doesnt say, but the tower description says Maxx/Revo so that would have to be 3.3.

Yeah, they claim a revo or T-maxx with optidrive on towers.. Since the with optidrive equiped maxx is the 3.3, they are for the revo/t-maxx 3.3

The Revo 2.5 has an Optidrive, but Traxxas didn't change the suspension on the 3.3 compared to the 2.5.

They changed the suspension on 3.3 tmaxx.

Yeah, that's why they say 'Revo, t-maxx with optidrive' look at their add

It all makes sense now. Hmm.
I wonder if they will have this as a option on a new model.

I meant they didn't change the suspension on the Revo when they put the 3.3 into it.

Just out of curiosity, what suspension changes did Traxxas make on the 3.3 T-Maxx? I work at a LHS, so this is some good info. to know. (We only have a 2.5 T-Maxx on display, so there isn't a 3.3 for me to look at.)

Only thing different is the colour of the shocks and the arms are slightly different to use the revo shafts. (they are notched)

the revo shafts have become updated to match the bulks of the maxx (they have got an X behind their partnumber now)

and it uses revo knuckles. as well as other turnbuckles. that's about it.

it uses different differential cases, 4 screws instead of 2, and grey updated bulks (not only changed the colour, but also a slightly different design)

The turnbuckles look fatter to me as well. I had some pics around here.
I could find them and send them to you if you like.
