Revo Truggy
 

Here is my revo MT/Truggy. Perfect weight distribution....

Tranny is set backwards for the motor to hang forward to hang the weight towards the front. With twin 3's its perfect 50/50. Truck runs 39mph on 3S and after 30min run, the motor is 110-115 and ESC is 101-105. Awesome setup....weighs 9.5lbs exact without batts.

Looking good! Are you still running 4wd.? If so, can you snap a pic. of how you mounted the trans.... I am in the process of converting my 3.3 Revo and I am looking for new ideas....

Thanks!:mdr:

Yes 4wd...using emaxx driveshaft.

How was mounting it...problematic or simple? I like the idea...it is based on the GR3 chassis, but at a fraction of the cost!

Just made a custom mount under to bolt the trans to on one side and bolted the other side to the factory frame. Took it to the track today...wow. Working on the suspension a little more to tweak some bounce out of it. Since it came out ligther then expected, the suspension was setup for heavier setup.

is that the e-revo tranny? did you have to drill new holes in the chassis to mount it? and i would also like to see a pic of the bottom

No...emaxx 3905 transmission.

Pics coming

Would this trans. set up work on my Revo chassis?

I like your idea a lot and am considering doing this mod.

Probably would, but I like the 3905 trans since it places the motor in the middle

I forgot about that....good point.

You can see I run bolts through the frame and the bracket and sandwich the trans in. It won't move not one bit. Ran it at the track yesterday for over 2 hours. Absolutely ran away from a E-revo that was with me at the track with the same basic setup. Its just much lighter on its feet and handles alot better. Also because its a lightweight setup I was able to gear it quite aggressively on lower voltage. Motor, controller and batteries have yet to go over 120. That was over an hour of laps...non-stop, just swap batteries and go. Running 10,000 mah so runtimes are LONG.

Did you do any mods to your trans?

nope....the 3905 tranny is brushless ready. So far its bulletproof. Ran it on 5S last night for giggles....57mph on the GPS.

Would it handle 6s...because that is what I will be using

No problem....
