I'm not sure the mini e-revo will be that fragile, here is a quote from Tim Roberts on the mini E revo from revo racers

The diffs are all metal- bulletproof. The driveshafts are almost the same size as Jato- don't worry about them either. The tranny is a combination of metal and plastic gears- indestructible. Basicly the driveline is designed to handle 1/10 scale loads but fit in a mini. Good luck breaking it.
Personally, I might have to try my lehner 1200xl/quark 80 on 5s combo in it. All i'd need is a reversed adapter to run a 540 on a 370/380 motor


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
