yeah i also have quite extensive experience with maxxs and revos. and sure those shafts break from time to time. however i am quite surprised how good the standard diffs of an e revo e.g. hold up even under 6s abuse. the small trx diffs are imo on an absolute level weaker than the savage flux diffs. but they hold up pretty fine. of course the maxx/revo is weighing less than a savy nevertheless with some powerful BL setups the stress on the tranny is still there. i would think that the plastic shafts for the savage should be stronger than the trx shafts... maybe more like the new summit shafts or the like.

of course i am not sure if this would work out well as there are some many other factors. people who perform (senseless) standing backflips or jump and land with throttle/break still are able to break anything. last but not least an adequate slipper adjustment is important. but everything else equal i could easily imagine high quality plastic shafts would help to prevent diff damages and would produce a new intended breaking point in the case of too high peak impact.
