Slayer... - 07.03.2008, 07:56 PM

Anyone see the new Revo, I mean Slayer? Looks just like a Revo with a Salsh body and wheels...

Hopefully they bring out an e-slayer quickly. That looks good though.

I really dont like when companies just change the body and wheels and call it a new car. However I do like the look of the corr trucks. Maybe I will just have to buy a body and put it on my e-revo.

Traxxas, responded immediately to comments on SLASH not being 4WD. Seems like there is another toy to convert to electric :) unless traxxas makes one...i think it will be worth it to wait (control...control...control your credit card)

I love these videos cause they are all filmed at my local track. Pretty cool truck, excellent drivers driving them too.

Look like it uses shorter arms. I have a feeling my unfinshed revo conversion will be sporting some of this vehicles parts...

dang!!! why didnt I think of that..maybe just buy those arms, wheels and body then put it to my E-Revo.....not that I dont like the E-Revo but sometimes I just want to drive those scaled models that actually looks and respond like the 1:1 counterpart. maybe its just me

It's a shame it lost a bit of it's scale appearance with the Revo pushrod suspension. IMO, they pulled a Losi on this one...threw a new body and tires on something and called it a new vehicle. Boo! Not impressed.

It looks like a 2.5 or shorter chassis, look at the front shock mount. This might be perfect for the G2R chassis conversion, However the Gorilla chassis is 1"longer than the 2.5 revo. Maybe we can get gorilla to do a chassis for the e-revo tranny and exact wheelbase for the slayer


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

Seriously, this is the coolest RC I've seen in a very long time. I can't wait to get one. And it looks like we may not have to wait for the electric version. It appears the RCM and Tekno kits will bolt right in. Thanks Traxxas :) Of course an E-Slayer can't be too far behind...
