So..$150 for P2 Rockers, longer chasis, and a 3.3 sized block, gets you a REVO 3.3? .. err cool. How long will the REVO be with all this stuff now? Like, the 30mm Longer chasis?

bauerbach

150$? most places have the revo 2.5 at 475$; the 3.3 will be 510$.

I think its a permanent upgrade; but the revo2.5 will still be available; or no indication of otherwise. the tmaxx with the 2.5 is still available.

I have mine on order from Tower, took advantage of last months $30. off code. Got it for $479.99.

Checked today they are back up to $529.99

Started at $531.99, dropped to $509.99, then back up to $529.99, I don't understand it.

bauerbach

probably trying to find the final "sales price", competing with each other without fixing the prices. one guys got it for 510, gotta stay competitive. guess they decided to up it so the rest followed.

or maybe traxxas revised their price.

A.B.U

Hm.. well, see When it was first announced it was quit a few bills! :P I didnt know the precies changed..

revonutt

Well my local hobby shop has 3 of the 3.3 traxxas engines and said it didnt have the punch they hoped for...[]

spacoli

I'm thinking of getting either a savage x or revo 2.5...... I've heard the savage is more durable than the revo.... but the revo turns better...... my main thing is i dont want to break stuff every time i drive it like i did with my redcat buggy.... is the turning ability that poor on a savage???? how do the suspension arms hold up on both of them????any help will be greatly appreciated!!!

jeeperscreapers

will I even be able to tell the difference in the steering of the revo and the savage if im driving in grass and not dirt?????

jeeperscreapers

also i won't be doing any racing just driving it fast as i can in the park and stuff.... i just dont wanna have to come to a stop everytime i wanna make a turn hehe

ashburg

You need the savage then for beating on [8D]

My Feedback: (1)

i have a savage x, in grass the truck has too much traction and tends to traction roll, its stable as anything in dirt though. i personally have nbever seen a revo in real life so i couldnt give an opinion. my friend is going to get the 3.3 though so if your still looking by then ill give you guys a head to head. my savvy will still be stock. with all the power the x has it doesnt need to be upgraded IMO. if it can wheel stand everytime i grab the throttle it has enough power.

dude the new revo is gonna be sick!! ive already talked with a guy who has a 3.3 in his revo and he got to race a revo with the 18tm and made it look slow!! i think this new motor is gonna make the revo pretty fast!! the extended chassis is gonna be killer, and the center diff, wow!
im running a revo 5.0 (os 30)and i crush savages, genesis, lsts, hellfires, etc... at everyting!! my truck is faster, more durable, and jumps way better. i run with those other truck nearly every weekend, they got nothin for a big block revo with the right parts on it. if i didnt get to run with these other trucks i wouldnt make such a claim, but i do.... when we go out bashing there is allways way more pics of my truck, what does that mean? well it means the camera man sees my truck as the mack daddy every time!! ohh and those other trucks are broken down on the sidelines. sure i have lots of hop ups on my truck, but isnt that what we do in this hobby? i havnt seen any other truck while bashing that even sparks my interest. i do want another truck, but i dont like what i see.
revo rules!

cruiserx

the savage after a while becomes boring to drive compared to the revo..it's like night and day!! the revo is pretty much as durable as the savage when it comes down to it..the savage being a hair more on the 8 ft plus jumps...but the revo is the sweetest driving monster truck you'll ever drive..it turns way better than the savage in the grass..no comparision..

ashburg

Any of you guys have a favorite place to buy these RPM A arms I keep hearing about for the Revo?

Anyone going with the RD bump box and plating off the starter?

TNTJake

Hi ash,
I think the Revo 3.3 will be COOL[8D] But the trx 3.3[:'(] not so cool.
You could blow it out of the water with a picco .26.
Oh ya I saw that someone said that a Revo 2.5 was about $470.
Well check www.rcboca.com they have the 2.5s for $438.
As for the arms not sure Were to get them.Are they the same as the arms on the 2.5? because if they are you can get them from www.killerhobbies.com. Hope that helps!

ashburg

anyone got their REVO 3.3 yet? Has Traxxas released them to vendors?

ashburg

What's up Revo Nutz

I'm getting these rims because the offset is equal to the stock offset: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...3&I=LXKAX6&P=K

I'm getting these tires: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...3&I=LXLGF7&P=K

What Foams do I get or would you recommend?

binaryterror

Stock foams are fine...problem is the Revo never handles right running Proline Wabashes. The Proline wheels are heavy but the tires aren't so you get a slow to lacking throttle/brake input to in-flight adjustments.

ashburg

greeeeeeat...I just clicked the buy button on some new wabash rims and some new crimefighter tires ...was that so wrong I ask, was that so wrong

j/k - I did buy them though
