Default First 5 Revo hopups

What are the first 5 hop up you'll be getting?

Mine will probably be:

New 100+ oz steering servo
New FM radio(maybe if I can afford it)
New body :P

[link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXTT12&P=ML]125 oz servo[/link]

Why would you go to one servo?
One word:
Speed.

[link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXTT13&P=ML]Actually I would get this one[/link]
Because it is 200oz of torque at .1 seconds. Now two 2055's might give you double the torque, but not half the speed right?

but 2 2055s are roughly 50 bucks.

Not everyone has 105 bucks to drop on a box with gears

I understand that, but the Revo is ment to be a racer.
I understand Traxxas logic behind it too; put two snappy servos in their for more torque. I guess if you wan to go hardcore into racing it, and you want your wheels to flip around real fast, you could do something like that.

Only reason why I responded, because you said:

And I told you why.

Go to http://www.rdracingproducts.com/stor...ab186249c414ba they have a couple of hop ups out for the Revo already. Looks cool if you ask me and some stuff to put on the christmas list. I talked to the owner and said they are working on getting more stuff out VERY SOON.
