Well, seeing as you posted in the Nitro forum I would ask if you want nitro of electric?

I like the Summit more than any other rig right now...
 
How are you going to afford this when you can't even pay 20 dollars to ship something.
 
I would choose the Revo. The Summit seems too slow for me, and just boring. Lol. But, they are 2 completely different machines. If you do choose electric, go with an E-Revo.
 
it really depends on what you are going to do as far as bashing. .. are you going to do high speed on road passes or are you gonna be up to your ankles in mud and muck?
 
Those two vehicles are worlds apart. One nitro, one electric. One meant to be fast, one meant to be average. I have no experience with a Revo but I recently got a Summit and I'll have it running on quality 14 cells around this time next week. Looks like a really cool rig all around though if you're not looking to break any speed barriers.
 
Not to be spamming but. 2 weeks ago he couldn't afford 20 bucks to ship something to me. Know hes going to get a 600 $ rig soon. somethings not right
 
... or a brushless 1/16 scale e-revo? or the slash? or the Emaxx?

Well, that was 2 weeks ago. Maybe the guy got paid. I don't know what the situation was/is between you too but I can only speculate upon info that is handed to me. It should not be surprising that somebody doesn't have money one day but has plenty 2 weeks later.

As for which rig... you are all over the place man. Nitro, Electric, 1/10 scale, 1/16 scale. The only thing that seems to be certain is your budget. You really need to narrow this down. Otherwise, folks are just going to suggest the rigs THEY like rather than the rigs that might be right for you.

First things first...

  1. Nitro or Electric? I'm not going to start a debate because there are numerous threds on it. You need to decide what you want.
  2. Scale? How much space do you have to run. Smaller is cheaper, do you need to sacrifice size to get everything you want within your budget?
If you can at least let us know where you sway and WHY when it comes to those two questions then and only then will you get any real help.
 
i was headded that way but then i do want a nother nitro so something nitro would be good under 600 dollars and no my parents are buying it for me for an after school present so i would like to know within 33 days so B4 the summer break i do kinda like the 1/16 scale revo tho i can't decide

and 1 acer of land and a trail behond my house with a lot of rocks i REALLLLLLLYYYY like the Revo but can't decide i need help
 
yup the full sized BL revo. your SOL on batteries though. My friend has one on 4s lipo and it is Faaaaaaaaaaast
 
ok i have a qustion does the 1/16th scale e-revo come with everything including a bettery and charger if so I'm getting that one same with the summit?
