Lmao nope they said it could be something stupid and idk didn’t offer no help just send to a hobby store to spend more money luckily I just charged it and it worked after they told me it wasn’t bc it was probably low battery😂

They should make a hump pack to replace the AA's. Optidrive has been an issue. Best answer is to unplug and toss it in the trash or parts bin. Some work, but there's others that are nothing but problems.

Another issue might be the servos. I had all kinds of issues running the newer blue servos.

Nah my servos are fine it’s just my battery was dying lol it was dead it rlly only happens to me when my battery dies but yeah hopefully servos are fine I hate the throttle on the revo tbh but you know any other Traxxas cars worth getting? Thinking about slayer 4x4 or jato next

It depends on your wants and needs and your surface type and size.

I'm currently building an hpi savage xl and love its size. The Revo has a unique suspension setup. The jato is fast as hell and will corner better than a m/t theoretically. They also have a nitro slash, its a rwd slayer based on the ruster.
