e-revo
I'm thinking of getting an e-revo soon, but i have a few questions. I am wondering what type of brushless system i should use. I am planning on putting in a brushless system soon after i get it. I want the most powerful system i can get. And i want it to come assembles with trx plugs. Also, what would i need to mount the new single motor brushless system. I'm not really concerned about cost right now... Also, the e-revo uses 2 batteries, right. And, I'd like whatever motor you suggest to be on amain or tower. Plus, can you tell me, with the brushless motor you suggest, what kind of top speed i would get with 2 Venom 7-cell 8.4 volt 5000mah batteries?
Thanks all!

RE: e-revo
That Velineon system will not be enough too power the E-REVO , you need something much bigger .
This seems too be the system of choice for the E-REVO (even though it hasnt been released yet) , the motor is based on a Neu design and is supposed too be VERY powerful .

No system you buy will have the Traxxas plugs on it unless Traxxas themselves sells it (or you find a LHS or online dealer that will solder them on) . There are rumors that Traxxas IS going too bring out their own 1/8 ESC/motor combo but its just a rumor so far .
With the MMM system and 14.8 volts I would say 40-45 mph is certainly possible .....Maybe more depending on gearing
