Revo 3.3

[Teejay]

Well i bought a used Revo 3.3 bought a new motor runs good, recently bought a new 2218/2238 receiver and transmitter, well the receiver antenna broke off at the top before the metal piece, that's all gone, plus there some wear down the antenna line, i was driving it yesterday and i hit the gas and let off and the car would just keep going, haven't checked the servos yet but ordered two of them and a new 2218/2238 receiver and transmitter, but i was wondered can this receiver be fixed? i look inside it and it isn't a snap on antenna its actually soldered onto the PCB board.

If you can find the length the old antenna was, you can solder a new one in its place.

Cool Well ill look and try to find one

also what would be a good color springs for front and back and what weight oil?

Springs are not needed unless you are adding weight to the chassis.
On stock revo shocks anything from 35-45 weight shock oil is great.

Would one traxxas 2075 be fine for my 3.3 revo? or should i go ahead and put both of them? bought two at a good deal was going to use one for steering and one for throttle. but will one be enough? i had a 2055 traxxas high torque and it seemed good.

also about the springs i was just curious cause i bought it used and i was just curious which springs were better thanks for the info

One will work fine, though it's a little on the weak side at 120oz. It'll do the job as long as your running a 6 volt nimh rx pack. Dual servos usually end up fighting each other and fail sooner.
