I planned on finishing this build, but need money now to buy a car, so I'm putting RCs on hold for a while. Basically this was a conversion from my old Revo 3.3. It has a brand new transmission not even mounted on the chassis, and a few spare parts I never put on. I'll even throw in this freshly...

Anyone know of another 3S battery, other than Traxxas, that will fit in the E-Revo tray. I've tried SPC and SMC sites and they're to tall. Traxxas 3S 5000ma 25C are $72.99 at rcplanet.com. Looking for something with a bit higher C rating

Hey everyone, so my first stock servo ended up shorting out or whatever (gave me the flashing light of death). Traxxas replaced it and the replacement stripped a few teeth off of one of the gears.

Been thinking about getting one of these for a little while to try the electric over nitro and found one of these for sale locally. The thing is the seller states it is a "TRACK STAR 6 POLE VERSION" and I am not sure what that means or how much it might be worth to buy or even make an offer...

I got a pair of e revo diff cups and was going to use the innards out of the stock nitro diffs .
Do I need to use that I beam center bar? Does it make it stronger with it? I can't find just the I beam bar for sale anywhere without the spider gears......
