I am geared for only 38mph and my truck has the punch control set at 70% and the slipper is set not to allow a wheely. I still can rip apart a plastic driveshaft. I broke 3 in one battery on the track. There are 2 other e-revo owners here and they have had driveshaft issues too. My lhs also tells people the first upgrade should be a set of cvds.

Now I had an lst2 with a 5s lipo geard for 48mph with a almost locked slipper(it could do a standing backflip with out issues) and NEVER had drivetrain issues. It was rock solid!!! The cvds are still one the truck 3 years later and the diffs have been in there for over a year! I beat that truck with jumps over my house to 100ft drops of the sand dunes!! Never had issue. I cant do that with the stock e-revo driveshafts or diffs. They just dont hold up.
