e-revo weakness diff

[JThiessen]

The diff's in your Revo are no different than the original 2.5R Revo. Same Gears, same cases.

Running in the winter is actually a little harder on parts. The plastics get brittle, and they have a different coefficient of expansion than steel parts, so the way parts fit together at 20 degrees is different than at 80 degrees. Maybe enough to cause misalignment on rotating parts, maybe not.

Like E-Revonut said, those big joes can be deadly with the right amount of power.

how so?

i had a 2.5 and i now have a platinum and they are the same

try losening the slipper alittle more and dont gun it or brake hard after landing a jump and they should hold up alot better

aluminum cases and the inner brace will help but the only other fix is the massively over priced FLM conversion

I'll bite...how so? I've been buying the same parts since day one - haven't noticed anything different.

I think Squee was correct, or maybe more that I was somewhat incorrect. The original 2.5R had an "I-Bar" set up in it. I dont recall my first one having that - but...one doesnt always recall everything! The 3.3 diffs are configured the same as the E-Revo, just some parts have an X designation, which may or may not mean something
