I'm runniong a Novak HV-Max brushless system at the moment, compared to some system out there it may be weak, but it runs with the local nitro's great and it. It will flip on its lid on grass and blacktop, racing wise it has gotten a second in an a-main
I have a neighbor that has a tree with a great approach (ramp like) and i was doing backflips and flip-twists (Most were'nt pretty and very bad landings) and didn't break anything, even when i got really bold and hit the tree at full throttle and going up the tree nearly ten ft. before the flip began. When i converted my revo to electric, it added 3 pounds to the weight (9 pounds full tank nitro, to 12 pounds with batteries electric). in my opinion most trucks are close to the limit on what they can handle, weight wise, but the revo seems overbuilt. Add three pounds to convert any other truck to electric (without alumnium arms and suspension, just what it takes to convert) and i don't think it will take what my G2R can.
