Bought myself a new merv today for christmas! The guy at my LHS talked me into buying the second battery with the parellel connector and now she flys! :D

i got a red one but mine is still in the box with the extra battey and series connector i also got red rpm arms and a wheelie bar

i have the upgrades axles coming
what else should be upgraded
 
Stop it!! JK, congrats man. I've wanted a merv for a long time now, and I'm doing well to fight the Tower 3 pay thing. Did you get the VXL version? With paddles, that thing would be the ultimate snow toy for my parking lot.
 
Ya its the vxl. You should just go for it, they are a blast! I was thinking the same thing about the paddles too, had those on my emaxx once and it would haul in the snow!
 
Congrats on your new toys

I'm up to 3 mini's now 2 E-revo's and a slash....upgrade the Rear bulkhead and shim it if you go above 2s

I think I'm gunna get rid of the slash, maybe upgrade to the Big revo

Why replace the rear bulk and shim it for 3s? I haven't had any problems on mine and all I run is 3s.

My buddy has had to replace his diff on 3s and i had to shim mine on 3s, the other one is on 2s and it seems fine so far...
 
Without even trying. Lightly touching the throttle landed it on the roof. I installed a center diff just to keep the front wheels on the ground.
