RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

Hey guys,

Wondering if any of you have a stock vxl3m lying around? I know many install a castle or hobby wing esc with higher amp, but I actually am looking for one to use with my mini 8ight. ...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

Mpower,
You're gonna want a hitec metal gear servo. Yes there is a direct fit. Ask skora or GForce, I know one of them ran theirs with one. I had one in mine, just can't remember the model. I...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

The real money will be in the collectors releases. They have a mini Rally camaro that is black and green. They also have a mini rally Kawasaki which could on be purchased a Kawasaki dealer. Crazy,...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

Yeah,

I'm kinda glad to go back to the mini... I like the portability, the speeds and they are a lot of fun, as long as the grass is short enough:)

I haven't seen the turnigy buggies... Do...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

GForce,

Long time bro... Real long time...

How's the merv doing? She bullet proof, gone through a few motors, and tires by now I suspect! I haven't had my merv in over a year. I've sold...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

Boo,

I'm not gearing guru... Dacaur might explain better, but the lower you go in pinion, the lower your top end will be. You'll have more torque with the lower pinion. I'd say to keep the spur...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

Hey Brian...

Welcome to the club! The 1/10 scale is just perfect in my opinion.

Might I suggest a particular model(s): slash 4x4 or stampede 4x4 vxl. The slash's reputation is enough to...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

VW04l,

Great to see you're getting the most out of that MERV. Keeping it clean, at least "cleaner" will definitely help out the drivetrain and suspension. Mainly, keep as much dirt, sand,...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

Dacaur,

My buddy converted his slash into a MERV, but kept the body mounts and the slash body! Actually Looked pretty good! He had to trim the fenders a bit to accept the Talons, but when he...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

Dennis,

You catch my earlier post about how to "create" a locking diff in our differentials?

It may ne worth a try and is completely reversible. I didn't come up with it, I got it from...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

Hey guys,

Got some really neat news you can try if you want a quasi locking diff in your merv. Take the diff apart, pull out the fluid and stuff pieces of paper towel. Pack it very tight and...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

Dennis,

I need to adjust my throttle curve on the rally too. I like the idea behind it, though, the rally doesn't wheely on command, it just darts like a rocket!

I had to create a new board...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

Absolutely Dennis,

I'm really excited about it, and I'm almost certain it will be able to handle more of the environment I have in my area/neighborhood. I loved the merv, but it's more...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

you're right MT... sorry bout that. It actually did start off with talk about my merv, but i had a quick question about nitro and thought I'd ask some of the many commenting posters on here what...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

I clearly see your points. And I'm actualy leaning toward an Emaxx. They are just so dang expensive! The other option is the 4x4 stampede, but it may not have the clearance I need. My grass is a few...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

by maintenance, i am referring to the proper storage and discharge of the lipos. When not in use for extended periods, lipos must be properly stored - including the discharge.

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

I know most of us are electric junkies, but I've always wanted to try nitro and the maintenance isn't any mote or less than that of lipos and brushless motors. Though, I've also considered the new...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

yeah, it just sits right now, and collects dust - not good for a merv :) Well, after i created the ebay listing, i didn't realize i had sooo much invested in this thing. I'm practically getting rid...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

Hey guys,

I think i'm gonna put the MERV up for $@1e. I really only play with the Rally, and i need a bigger truck like an Emaxx or Stampede to drive in my yard with the needed clearance.

Grump,

That stinks about your alum rods and ends, my Traxxas ones haven't broke yet, but I did bend one in a horrible accident. Managed to bend it straight back, but I may have weakened the...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

Rody,

In my experience (some may also agree) if you plan on bashing your merv, I would recommend leaving as much stock plastic on as you can. It is cheaper to replace the stock parts than...

RE: OFFICIAL MINI E-REVO THREAD!!!

Dacaur,

I agree 110%. If Traxxas tacked on 20.00 more bucks and included the second battery and harness, I would have been happier with the stock batts and not have invested in lipo immediately....
