Now on to your rants: Bashing at 20mph may be boring to you, but there is all kinds of bashing and all kinds of people. It will crawl much better than a spooled maxx truck, thanks to it's low gearing, high torque motor, and phenomenal articulation of the revo suspension. (ever gauge RTI, or ramp travel index, the good crawlers have, articulation helps) And have you watched the summit videos? It crawls quite well. Maybe you haven't seen specs on a 775 motor, but many of us have seen specs on almost every motor we can find. It's not a "traxxas" motor with hidden specs, it's a 775 sized motor with easy to find specs with a "traxxas" sticker on it, and according to how many watts of power produced, one 775 has more torque than two 550's. I don't know if you know how fast 20mph is. Not many dogs can run 20mph. A man walking is 3-4 mph, 7 mph is a slight jog. 20mph in a small yard is petty fast. Most racers are geared below 40, and bashing in a yard they get nowhere near top speed. You might want to get a radar gun andsee some actual speeds and familiarize yourself with them before talking or writing to forums, you really make yourself sound foolish. Nobody knows about the diffs, but the rest of the truck is brushless capable, as proven in the e-revo. 5 servos. Cool! Since 3 of the 5 are for shifting they won't see any load and won't break. The steering servfos are the new metal geared digital servos, so those won't break. You have a hard time synching two e-maxx servos? That's day one stuff, if that's too hard for you, you may want to get out of r/c and check out the forums at www.legosforkiddies.com Their toys are much more user friendly. |
Actually I am very familiar with 20mph speeds in MTs and it is mind numbingly boring. Dogs can run at 45mph by the way. Sorry if yours is slow, guess you need a brushless motor. So how many watts does the 775 make? Why would it crawl better than a spooled Maxx truck? You can gear down on a Maxx truck and have all the torque you will ever want or need to crawl. I am willing to bet you right here and now that as soon as it sees a real MT sized brushless system the truck will fail imdiately. The drive angles are too steep, the gears are too low meaning too much torque to the gimmicky lockers and the ride height is too tall paired with the soft suspension meaning it will roll at any speeds above 15 or so MPH. So your telling me the E-Maxx has no steering servo problems? Your telling me it isn't a pain in the ass having to set them every time you take a big jump? And then adjusting the shifting and locker servos is gonna be great fun. So I'm foolishly asking you to answer questions you foolishly think you know. I'm stating facts about the machine, your saying that it looks cool on the video. On papaer this truck is terrible. Kids who like the looks and want lights will enjoy it.
