New Traxxas vehicle!!

[crazyjr]

Why is the Jato a joke, I had one and loved it. I always wanted an electric version, but the conversions were not my style, not saying they were bad. The weight usually was too far forward and unless you had saddle pack lipos, you usually had trouble placing them in the chassis. The problem with the transmission, If people didn't run 1512 and 1515 neus in them there would be no problems. Mine run the 3.3 and a hot modified .12 when i raced it, never had a problem.

Here are the most asked things on the traxxas forums;
1. Rustler based slash; possible, especially with Losi bringing out the strike and everyone else bringing stadium truck based setups

2. 1/6-5 gas buggy; possible, they had one before

3. E-4-tec; not likely, but possibly rally?

4. Nitro slash based off the nitro stampede; not sure and don't follow nitro much anymore

Those were the most recent requests that i can recall, save for my thread asking for an Ejato. Here is what we will probably see if it's an E-jato.

Two speed tranny, with a brake servo for 80 MPH top speed.
Fully water proof VXL setup, possibly a fegaio based sensored(novak/LRP) setup for race legality. 13.5 Turn would be closest to the 3500 motors.currently used.

the one thing i'd like to see is a setup where the battery can be reconfigured and the tranny can be flipped (X-factory X-6/60) so on high traction tracks you can run mid motor
