Finally!

Has the CC monster, 2200 kv motor, and 2.4ghz transmitter. Nice one Traxxas, big score for sure!

Doh! Now I have to save some pennies dangit.

Now we know why Patrick has been so quiet lately.

I think TRX just kicked the crap out of some people with this one.

I wonder if they are going to re-release the new version E-maxx with that setup? Kinda sucks since I just bought all kinds of crap to make my E-maxx Brushless

Finally!!! Swap in the remote locking diffs and I'll be a happy camper.

Would be interesting in a drag race for sure!

I would hope right around $600. I think much more than that and Traxxas won't be selling many of them.

Interesting I thought CC was tied to HPI... I guess non exclusive - Only downside I see is availability of combo as I'm sure Traxxas will have first call...

Also note that it is a V2 in photo's. still...

Well its about time.

And I am guessing the system will be available separately soon as well.

I'm really interested to see how well the 2.4G performs. I like the little mount they have for the MMM too. It looks more solid than what I'm currently using.

I was wondering what the heck you were talking about 'cause it intially looked like it was just sticky taped to the chassis. But now I see traxxas must have designed up that over the fan post system. I'll have to look into making myself one of those.

Have to ask Patrick if thats a Traxxas part or one of theirs.

Based on Patrick's latest comments, he expects the first shipment of motors mid-November. I'd guess around Thanksgiving would be the soonest they'd be shipping combos out.

Oh my...that looks sweet! I know a few people who've jsut bought standard E-Revo's who'll be a bit annoyed at this lol. Very, VERY nice collaboration there! I want one already lol.

Traxxas need their butts kicking, though; they're calling the the ESC the Mamba Max, not Mamba Monster as it should be (at least, on the second page of the promo bit). That's gonna cause a little confusion among the less brushless-literate...

But still...WOW. What a package.
