Revo Parts
Ok, I want to know what the best parts would be for a Revo 2.5R. Replacement wise that is. What are the weak spots on the Revo that should be upgraded? Also, what are recommended first hop-ups?

RE: Revo Parts
exhaust and motorsaver airfilter. as for everything else wait till it breaks then upgrade. but if you want some stuff to keep on hand the most obvious answer will always be glowplugs and spur gears and a case of beer

RE: Revo Parts
just google it. the revo is very durable, there really are no upgrades or anything necessary. maybe rpm a arms when one breaks, better steering servo, and i like the look of the wing and it protects the engine.

RE: Revo Parts
some guys use servos wiht 300+ oz of steering which are quite exspensive, im young and on a budget and use this [link=http://www.trossenrobotics.com/store/p/3295-Hitec-Servo-HS5645.aspx]click[/link] and it works just fine

RE: Revo Parts
I feel for y'all starting out on a small budget.....
But if you can afford a new REVO....then you wouldn't beleive what you could afford slightly used!
