Default RE: ALl Titanium Traxxas Revo?!!

Pure titanium is a lustrous white metal with low density, high strength, and high corrosion resistance. It is resistant to dilute sulfuric and hydrochloric acids, moist chlorine gas, most organic acids, and chloride solutions. Titanium is only ductile when it is free of oxygen. Titanium is virtually non-magnetic, making it ideal for applications where electromagnetic interference must be minimized.
The big thing about titanium is that its very resistant to fatigue, meaning it bends but doesnt stay bent, even more than plastics, yet you can make it lighter than steel and retain the same tensile strength.
