New E-Revo - first impressions - RC-Monster Forums

E-Revonut · 12:26 AM

the diff ratio is the same as the revo/3905 MAXX. But looking at my book that came with E-REVO with the exploded views and part listings it says the input gear is 18 and the output gear is 33. So I have proven myself wrong! I know it has been discussed in another thread but could the increased speed be the mmm instead of mm? That is the only thing I have changed going from my 3905 to e-revo. I pulled everything from the maxx, sold it and put it on revo but used mmm instead. 3905 I was running 62/20 for decent speed. Same motor, batteries,pinion, and even ran talons on 3905.

Quick update - loving this truck.

Got the Badlands MT with Maximizer Bead-Locks (my first set of bead locks - first one was a real pain to get put together, but the other three were a breeze. they are really great - only complaint is that little pebbles can get stuck between the tire and the bead but easy enough to clean out and less of a pain than regluing tires)

Motor of choice for me until I decide to change it up is the MMM with Tekno 1515/2.5d and 18/62 gearing. It's a modest 35mph, but lots of power and tons of fun to run. With the 6S 5000mAh packs I am taking out about 50% in about 15-20 minutes of hard running.

OK - feeling every year of the 34 I will be tomorrow. I spend every day working in a data center and I have never actually made a video to post online.

I'll take the plunge and make one this upcoming weekend - I know just the place too.
