The first day I got it, I broke a diff yoke and an A-arm. I'll attribute those to crappy driving at this point. I haven't broken anything since then. The diffs are smooth and don't seem to be having any issues from anything I've heard.

I've been doing plenty of backflips and the like, so I'm impressed so far with the diffs holding out.

Okay, I tested the stock TRX 1200 pack by itself using the 23T "speed" pinion.





I hammered it the whole time doing full speed passes, wheelies, and full throttle grass runs. Runtime was just over 10 minutes before it slowed down.

Motor temp
Max - 110.3
Min - 77.8
Avg - 99.24
Amps
Max - 40.20
Min - 0
Avg - 6.88
Volts
Max - 8.05
Min - 5.55
Avg - 6.86

In the white Excel graph, the Volt Count indicates how many data points were found at any given Amp value. By this you can see that it is rarely above 30A, and spends most of the time under 15A when used with the stock 6cell NiMH battery alone.

After seeing all these graphs I'm thinking I would like to get an eagle tree. I'd really like to see what my truggy is pulling. What system do you have?

Seeing that the revo and the crt.5 are about the same size, which do you think you would do better with in a race? Assuming they would be in the same class?

Are you serious? The .5 will out class the vxl revo in every category! Not to mention the .5 only has to land on the revo once and the revo will be done! Let's say it was a 10 minute race. The .5 has a better chance of lasting durability wise without breaking. Tight turns, the .5 has a true CD and can pivot around a corner with ease vs the tranny in the revo. I'll say this though, the vxl revo opens up indoor off road racing! You don't need a huge area to run these on 6cell Nimh or 2s lipo. That's the only way I'll get one is if they start racing them at the lhs, otherwise it'll be an SC10, after I get an eagle tree setup

Perhaps the pictures are deceiving. The CRT.5 is definitely larger than the mini E-Revo. It almost wouldn't be fair to have them in the same class for the reasons mentioned above.

I prefer the CRT.5, but I'm having a blast with the mini E-Revo as well. I'll be racing both tomorrow night in different classes. Hopefully we can get enough mini E-Revos to have their own class.
