Rustler 4×4, E-revo or its big brother.. Loved the positive video, only one that made me smile. Seem to be some issues with the Revo the more i learn about it but it might end up at a mini on 2s to be a little safer. Don't wanna fully upgrade a €700 e revo out of the box, that's to much.

    It’s a great RC car. I have two of these Vxl 1/16 1st gen mini e revos and one of them does 65.2 mph on 3S lipo using two 3S Traxxas 1400 mah lipo batteries with a parallel connector. They are loads of fun.

    • @gorillabeartech4577
      @gorillabeartech4577 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      PG RC Plus Yes bit you need to buy a 34 tooth pinion and a 43 tooth spur. Or you can just do 32 pinion and 43 spur and you’ll be at 62-64 mph maxed out with 3 cell lipo. 32/45 will probably get you 58-61 mph maxed out. I use the sky RC gsm-015 just like the one in this video. In kph it’s alittle more accurate.

      @@jamesrobinson4950 I run mine on 3S all day long and it doesn’t do anything except maybe once in a blue moon seldomly I have to buy a new esc. Usually when you run it on stock gearing you don’t have to worry..... it’s usually you have to worry only when your running it on a higher gearing and on 3S. They recommended to me I run it on two 3S in parallel instead of just a single 3S.

    i bought one of these 12 years ago. i never tried a 3s lipo, i had no clue it was that fast. to bad im pretty sure i put it away 11 years ago because so many things were wrong with it otherwise i would buy a 3s and bring it out of the depths of my garage. also, should have tried 2 NiMh batteries in series, then the video would have been perfect.
