anyone on here recieve their 1/16 slash or revo yet?
 
a mini review would be nice. im also curious to know how the stock 6 cell nimh powercell performs. im in need of a 6 cell nimh pack for my stock rc18.

Mine will be here on Thursday from Tower, possibly may have one by Weds from my LHS as well.

My LHS has a slash & e-revo sitting there... he just called me to try and get me to come buy one. :lol:

I think my wife would kill me, though :whistle:

My E-Revo VXL should arrive on Friday. I'll be sure to get vid/pics.

I wonder how many problems it will have. Traxxas has never made a mini and this is a new kit, so I'm sure a few kinks will have to be worked out. Or maybe traxxas thought this through a lot..

blueb8llz 06.16.2009 02:49 PM

ok ill be looking forward to hearing about them. ive been debating whether or not if i should replace my modified rc18mt for the revo. im keeping my stock rc18 tho..thats my inhouse vehicle.
oh, hey are you guys gonna keep that nimh battery that comes with it? if not, pm me to how much you would sell it for shipped to CA.

I have 2 VXL Slashes and a VXL E-Revo sitting out in my vehicle. My LHS called me this morning and said they came in. They didn't even bring them out of the back until I could make it down there to take my pick of the colors I wanted. :mdr:

So now I have an Amsoil Slash, Whelchel Slash and Blue E-Revo. On Thursday, I'll be receiving in a Red Slash :grrrrrr: and a Red E-Revo. More than likely the Red Slash will be finding it's way onto eBay or back to Tower.

honestly i don't think they will have too many on the design considering it is just and e revo miniaturized, but i think there problem will ly with the esc considering that they can't even get the regular vxl to work let a lone a miniature one that is waterproof

Let's just hope it's not another Mini-LST... ;) I really want one!

kraegar 06.16.2009 05:59 PM

Pulled one out of the box at the LHS to look at, it's really sweet. Smaller then I'd pictured, actually.

Too bad the wife threatened to kill me if I bought one...

How does the size compare to a CRT.5?

glassdoctor 06.16.2009 06:27 PM

LHS has them but I didn't stop by to check them out yet. One guy ran his and said it was pulling wheelies pretty easy out of the box....

kraegar 06.16.2009 08:18 PM

Believe it or not, I'm new enough to the hobby I haven't seen a CRT .5 :lol:

skellyo 06.16.2009 10:45 PM

I've got some of mine...1 more of each on the way still though.
