Default RE: LST Vs REVO

Nicholsm04, you should do your homework as well. The LST has a .26 engine compared to the Revo's .15 engine, meaning that the LST's engine is nearly twice the size of the Revo's engine. Thats many steps larger than "one size down". After the .15 comes .18, .21, .23, .25, and finally .26. So it's 5 sizes down actually.

The TRX 2.5 (.15) is rated at 1.2 HP in a 9 pound truck, while the Mach .26 is rated at 2.75 hp in a 13 pound truck. The Revo has .13 horsepower for every pound, while the LST has .21 horsepower for every pound. That means that the LST's power to weight ratio is 1.6 times higher than the Revo's power to weight ratio.

Nearly every aspect of your last post was wrong.

The LST doesn't just "break out of the box" like you said. Just like every other truck, you still have to run into something for it to break. It doesn't just fall to pieces when you pick it up.
