MetalMan + BP-Revo BL Revo Bash
 

Well, its a little more than just us and the Revo's. One of my buddies was piloting my Revo 2.5R and one of MetalMan's buddies had his N-Rustler 2.5 (Andrew and John). MetalMan also had his MT2 18SS with him. I had my Jato 2.5 and T-Maxx, but never got a chance to bring em out - oh well.

The Blue BL Revo is MetalMan's. - 7XL, Mamba Max ESC, and 5s2p A123 M1 cells

The HPI MT2 18SS is also MetalMan's. 8L, Mamba Max ESC, and 4s2p A123 M1 cells

The Nitro Rustler 2.5 is Johns. It was put out of commission early in the vid by a failed CVD (lost the pin).

The Revo 2.5R (Nitro) is mine, and was driven by Andrew for the beginning of the video. The last minute or so where the jumps get bigger (crashes too lol) are me driving it.

My G2R is the black and red one - specs in my sig. As you can see, I didn't do anything crazy as I was running with a bent chassis (both X-Braces bent on my last track day!).

Anyways, here's the vid:

And, a special thanks to Wes, who did the filming. Wes and MetalMan did the editing (I think).

PS. Chances are, round 2 will be this coming Monday. :027:

If anyone happens to notice or care, the wheel change on my G2R was a result of a stripped hex. Also stripped a hex on my Revo 2.5R when pulling the crazy jumps (don't mind my crashing - I mean driving - skills lol).

i saw it lol like i said, it was hard to find u travis :D lol flipping, wheelies lol

thats a sweet vid! but still doesnt work

I still can't get it... lol

youtube is working fine :) try my new video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwnFHlkmxBY

I'm working on uploading a the rest of the footage....

1st video stil doesn't work. The second one form glassdoctor is very cool. Did anything break? Usually are a lot mroe brittle in the cold. That is one big jump as well. Looks like tons of fun.

Wow that thing flew!!! You must be getting killer runtimes with those 12K's...

Cool... the Revo 2.5 had a nice face plant into that rock, lol............

Nice videos guys! Cant wait to see bash 2 BP! :)

Nice vid, i would personally not added music, i (and some others as well) like hearing the RC instead of music.

nice video! i hope to be back in the brushless game in a few months.

Hey tally! Are you keeping your revo or starting with another truck?

whats up! no, the revo has been gone for around a month, so i'm going to build a gmaxx/ue racer. probably going with 1930/1940 on 4s lipo paired with a 36/120 or 36/150(if they make it). i'm waiting to see what gorilla has up their sleeve.:032:

its a nice vid...but that high flying jammin was priceless!

bp u really ubuse ur revo lol more then i thought u would after seeing u baby the g2r(i would to tho lol)

and mm, did u bend anything? on the e revo?? u took some hard hits there :D

The G2R was being babied because its currently running with two bent X-Braces. One hard hit could bend the X-Braces more which would then cause something else to get damaged. Speed runs and light jumps are ok, but not much more. If it wasn't bent, I'd probably jump it a little more, but not really. One of these days I'll get a vid of it at the track :018:

The Revo 2.5R is my basher truck. I let it all loose when I drive that thing. Its the most durable truck, well, ever, in my opinion. I've driven that thing harder and harder every time I take it bashing and its actually never broken (unless you can loosing a setscrew and stripping a hex). I've been knocking on wood forever and this thing is still going. However, my starter motor is going out - the gear is slipping on the shaft. I'll have to get a new one of those...I'm just going to keep trying to use it until the motor just totally gives.

When the motor gives out, I'm going to do a mini-overhaul on key components. I'll be putting a 3.3, FOC, changing the gearing to suit my driving, slotted/vented brake rotor, tekno stuff, and hopefully a Spektrum Receiver (so I can use my CRX with it) and some servo's. Its all a matter of cost though...I'm really low on cash right now... on top of that, I've been dying to get a touring car too... (and touring cars are expensive!).

i know about the x braces, just my first impression ( and i forgot about the braces) i thoght it was going to babied lol but was i wrong:005:

and yeh touring cars are pricey, but well worth it
