I like the fact they put lockers in the diffs. [8D]

I'm sure a few people would want those in their revo.

Watch the video again- this IS a Revo......with some cool adaptations- lockers and a low range. Now we know why the new Tx and Rx have a 4th channel. With Traxxas teaming up with Castle Creations, I'm sure there will be a BL LiPo version of this crawler with a crawler-specific SC and motor combo. The boys from Texas have been raising the bar an awful lot lately. Keep it up.

For a crawler, this new one from traxxas certainly does look pretty cool even though Im not nearly as much of a electric type fan as I am a nitro fan.....still that aside it looks pretty cool...[8D]

I really like that thing. Any idea when it is going to hit the streets and how much it is going to cost.

Is is built on the same chassis as the E-Revo so the batteries should fit, as for the reverse I dont know

When they do start to come out with hopups they (at the moment) Will fit on a 3.3, because if you havent noticed its just a E-Revo with LT rockers [X(]. You might have to buy a mini servo and the bulkheads for the summit.

I think it has new rockers that offer more travel than the LT rockers.

They are the same rockers...I can acheive the same travel with my revo if I wanted to by slapping on LT rockers and 7in+ tires.

I wonder if u can engage them under load? Would be cool to come out of a corner and get ultra traction.

I am glad I sold my Emaxx last spring
This is going to be a nice addition to my fleet.
Brushless will be awesome
this is what I have been waiting for something that has a 2 speed and is electric and water proof for the most part.
Nice job again traxxas.
