If traxxas was going to make a new R/C vehicle from the ground up. what would you want it to be? and would you want it to be electric or nitro?

Soothsayerman

1/8 scale nitro monster truck made for pure bashing.

Trebormojo

nitro rock crawler. I'm sure their innovation could make a great suspension and a great nitro power band for crawling.

Would also like to see a pure jumping truck/buggy.

I 2nd this notion. Also just to inform you the poll is not working....

cambrian

BIG 1/10 or 1/8 scale 6x6 or 8x8 Nitro Truck with a big engine. Think Osh Kosh. Oh, and make it here please, getting tired of the Made in Asia stuff.

Clymer122693

1/8 scale nitro buggy with f1 suspension and a BB or mid block.

Xtfreak

1:8 buggy or monster With a BIG BLOCK.

RCCanuck

1/5 the scale 4X4 Fuelie Monster Truck with a real thick nicely detailed shell[sm=tongue_smile.gif]

Xtfreak

Out of all of these that we listed do you think they will ever make one?

matts6887

Something in my mind tells me they may possibly have something already possibly in the works in terms of 1/8 nitro vehicles or they may be planning something for a release in the very near future. What that something is is totally beyond me. but obviously it would definately be absolutely sweet to see a 1/8 nitro MT or Buggy of sorts come from traxxas because they have always been use to coming out with 1/10 scale vehicles....[8D]

I personally would like to see a Mini REVO , 1/16 or 1/18 scale .

Traxxas has a pretty good hold on the Nitro and Electric MT market but has no mini trucks at all ?

wayfast

i would like to see some thing clos to hpi's mt2. i wish that it would take off and we would see some others make one as well. i dont like the stadium truck class but i think that 4wd's would be a nice change.

Decent, non overheating, non crank pin snapping, no rod throwing, no airleaking nitro engines.

jsflagstad

Their new CORR truck with 3.3 nitro power!!!!

JSF

Mufasa_719

100% and in a larger size

Clymer122693

A 1/8 CORR PRO4 nitro Slash would be sweeeet.

fox23

1/5th scale truggy? (do those even exist? i think they would be sweet), or 1/8 scale truggy

drummerboy68028

How about an E-Revo...OH WAIT...NVM [)]

rcmaster8

they do the jato

wayfast

they just released the e revo. it is on the traxxas web site. i think they finally heard what we wanted and made it happen.

wayfast

by the way the mt2 is 4wd and it is nothing like the jato. does any one else not like 4wd stadium trucks? i think a truck similar to the mt2 with a 3.3 would be sick.

If you dont mind paying $2500+ for it, sure, I second the motion.

You pay an asian $0.25 a day to make stuff in a dictator, military backed country, versus paying an american $12/hr to make stuff. It just wont work. We cant compete.

Clymer122693

They have known for a while now...the truck has been in R&D for 2yrs.

cambrian

Not really, if you look at the cost of hobby stuff, like model car kits. They cost more now then they did in the 90s when they were made in Iowa and Illinois. I suspect the same would be true for RC stuff if there were a way to compare a US made RC car vs a Chinese made one. Outsourcing jobs does not save the consumer money like we have been told. It merely increases the bottom line profit for a company and those profits are shared with investors and executives, not folks like us.

agree 100%.right on[sm=thumbup.gif]
