Traxxas 1/16th's Info Released
 

Sweet! it is also in their catalog. There is a bunch of info on it... It looks like a very nice truck, but for the time being, my rc18 will have to do. Looks like they are also listed in the "products" section of their website. Avaliable may 14...

Sounds like they did the diffs right... Does anyone else notice something wrong with the 15th slide?:lol:

LOL...power wiring into the plug is backwards. Good catch!

Let's all hope they don't make them like that!:lol:

I think with dual batteries a sweet setup would be a 4s flightpower. Hopefully the battery trays will fit the flightpowers and most other good lipos that are 100-110mm long. 4s lipo with a medusa or neu would... Test the diffs for sure!

Can we review the release date and price?

Release date is May 14. Prices are pending (not listed on any site I've found)

I was thinking of stuffing my Lehner 1930 in there...maybe I'm just insane...:neutral:

And perfect timing. I know what I want for my Birthday!

Those diffs do look solid. Now I am torn between the mini slash and revo... I think I will take the mini revo. Do they list battery tray dimensions yet? Looks like their packs are 6 cell 2/3a packs. So a pair of 2s lipos like that in parallel would give stupid long runtimes, and I am sure that it could be geared to get around 35 out of it with 2s lipo. That way the internal bec could be retained, and temps should stay low. At least it has 48p gearing, and I bet the motor shaft is 1/8, so std pinions will fit...

I am so all over that mini revo its not even funny!:intello: Where do I order from. I want to get a stock "mini revo" class at my local track. Imagine running these things on a full out 1/8 scale track with 10 or 15 of them on the track at once. Total blast!!!

Linc, I was planning to do 3S in parallel, but that's me. And yes, I want one NOW!

lol

3s would be a sweet setup!

It says the esc will take 12 cell NiMH so its gotta be able to take 4s. Probably doesnt have a LVC profile for 4s though.

If the limit is 14.4V, and 4s is 14.8 that wouldn't work, right? I like how they went back to the simple NiMh. An honest speed claim right there!

That was the limint on the Mamba max too..... But we all know that didn't mean anything. I was running the MM on 5s lipo for a long time.

Besides, 12 cell NiMH peaked is almost identical in voltage to 4s fully charged.

That is true.. I wonder if it has a LVC built in... i mean, it comes with a NiMh, so I wonder... No doubt people will push it, if it is anything like the 1/10 version, it should be a killer.
