When for monster maxx?

Honestly, I don't think Traxxas will. And Traxxas may have decent Cs, but still not as good as CC IMO

I agree - This is huge for TRX but they are not the first out there as Losi has already done it with the XXX-T.

What makes it huge for TRX is their visibilty and overall dominance in the entry level market. They take a platform that their manufacturing already supports and put a brushless system- hype...errr market the heck out of it. Make it stupid fast and sell more parts... GENIUS!

I think Castle can only benefit from Traxxas' entry into the BL market. It will introduce more people to the brushles arena. And like everyone here, they will get addicted and crave a more functional and powerful system.:004:

Everyone keeps bringing up Losi but come on, they put an old overstocked Novak system in that they probably bought at deep discount because Novak couldn't sell them what with the new releases. Then it's barely faster than the Brushed version and had no other real changes to the vehicle.

Traxxas put a real high performance BL system in , beefed up many areas of the vehicle, and improved a few other things. I think there is a clear difference here. Not too mention is Traxxas was smart and actually used a sensoreless system but still left the option there for someone who still wants sensored.

I guess this means that now that Traxxas has done this that ROAR will have a little more pressure to allow sensorless in.

The one thing you are missing, is the fact the Velineon is made for the Rusty, Stampede, Jato type cars. I don't believe after reading everything that it will push the Maxx or Revo's. I noticed there chart went to 3s lipo. So this is basically another system like the MM, which can be run on 4s and even 5s. I bet that if you hook the Velineon on to 4s, it would melt that esc. This is my opinion though after a quick glance, unless there are versions for the maxx and revo's/heavier trucks. So technically, Traxxas is still behind with CC unless it is reated higher for MT's.
