BL Revo using Revo Transmission?

[Finnster]

How are you getting a 4lb drop from v1 to v2? Thats nearly a 50% weight gain. :040: Looking through both threads, I don't see a whole lot that would add up to 4 lbs. Is this between the batt mounts, rollbar and emaxx tranny? I am planning a Emaxx conversion, but the weight diff you are suggesting is making be have pause.

I like the idea of the disc brake tho, so this conversion is interesting. I have a BL rustler and use the motor brake to correct my often "nose up" jumps, but hate how much strain I end up putting through the tranny, spur and motor. I worry about this more on a heavy 4wd MT. I also like the idea of stock parts. I had a hoped-up emaxx that became almost no funto drive having to worry about breaking expensive custom parts. I want to avoid that as much as possible on the Evo.

If the weight savings are that dramatic that is another huge plus.
