EXTREME Jumps with Traxxas 1/16 Summit / E-Revo VXL
Hey everyone, I've jumped my Traxxas 1/16 Summit / E-Revo (kind of a half-half) progressively higher, about 15 feet in the first video, 24 feet in the second video and 40+ feet in the third video, only damage was a popped suspension link and a cracked body mount!

RE: What About Mini Z's??
Mini-Z's? Pure awesome! The on-roaders feel as light as a feather. The trucks are loads of fun. They are all pretty darn durable too! However, the starting price is anything but pleasant. I can however say, it's worth it! After you've bought 1 2.4ghz Mini-Z, a Radio, batteries and a charger, you can run others for way less money! I eventually want four of them, a Monster (Monster 2.4ghz complete readysets are available in Europe), an Overland, an MR-03 and an AWD for da drifts! (Seriously, I love drifting, but I don't have room for the 1/10's, can't drive them anywhere in my area. I once had a Tomy Drift Package light and that was loads of fun till it broke down!)

Why are you making fun of me? I'm just telling that i think it's in between mini and micro on my own way.

Yeah, 1/18 is on the edge of mini for me. It's more like a hybrid mini-micro.

RE: Traxxas Micro E-Revo, Summit, Slash 4x4 or Rally. Do you want one?
Maybe not in a 1/36, but according to my calculations it should fit in a 1/24 or maybe a 1/22. That's small enough and I call that micro. I call 1/18 and 1/16 mini.

The whole F-in chassis is different! Dual A-Arms per corner, inboard shocks, 4WD, Mid Motor... Everything is different!

Put a 1/10 stadium truck next to an E-Revo. See the difference?

RE: Traxxas Micro E-Revo, Summit, Slash 4x4 or Rally. Do you want one?
Losi doesn't even have a true 4wd off road (the Rally and SCT stop working when they even touch dirt, I found out myself) and they don't have a brushless RTR or even a 2.4ghz RTR (except for crawlers). I think a lot of people would buy a Micro E-Revo over a Micro-T!

RE: Traxxas Micro E-Revo, Summit, Slash 4x4 or Rally. Do you want one?
They really wouldn't cost 300. They would cost about 110 brushed 27mhz and 200 brushless and 2.4ghz. Think of it. A small brushless 200 bucks powerhouse can be way more fun then a stock brushed 450 bucks E-Revo!

RE: Motors for Mini-T!! POLL!
I had a Mini Desert Buggy (same stock motor as Mini-T, RS280) and when the motor burned out, I bought a RX280 (from Losi). My Mini-Desert Buggy got boosted from 15 mp/h to 23 mp/h! 'S' stands for 'Sport' and 'X' stands for 'Xtreme'. This motor also gives more battery life then all the motors in the poll. My 1100 Mah lasted for 30 minutes with that motor! :)

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread
Hey guys, I'l get an E-Firestorm Flux soon, but I can't choose between black-orange and pink-yellow. I already found some real life pictures of the black-orange one, but no real life pictures of the pink-yellow one. Only some white background pics. Can somebody with a pink-yellow E-Firestorm Flux post some pictures?

Two questions for dcfever: 1. Does it come with a wheelie bar like the full size Flux? 2. Does it drive like a full size Flux? (Tippy and lots of wheelies.)

RE: Lithium Battery Hysteria!!!....
A lot of people think NIMH is safer, but this is the thing. LiPo's do tend to explode more than NIMH's, but when they explode, it's a safer situation than when a NIMH explodes. LiPo's are flamethrowers and NIMH's go off like a grenade. LiPo's burn things down and NIMH's blow apart whatever they are in or near.
