Jihad, are you talking about the full-size E-Revo or the Mini E-Revo? I have heard from owners of the mini E-Revo (aka "Merv") that it needs a lot of aftermarket parts to make it bashable. But I haven't heard that about the big one. And it does have some cool features. But DANG that sucker is expensive! $700+

For my money, if I was looking for something like that, I'd look at the new Arrma 8th-scale stuff like the Kraton, or the Talion. I've seen them at my LHS and they are BEEFY. And fast on 4S Lipo. A guy I know said his Talion was "stupid-fast" on 6S, and preferred running 4S. Jumps well too. Check out the guy's videos here: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/rc-e...ah-review.html

Oh, the Talion is about $500. Saves you $200 over the E-Revo that you can spend on good Lipo packs: http://www.smc-racing.net/index.php?...product_id=248
