    I love the Erevo, I am on my second one. Sold the first one for a kraton 6s, realized I missed the way the erevo drove and had to get another one. Just a killer RC, that drives like no other. I really have had no issues other then the servo's going out. Good Stuff!!

      Yep stock electronics pooped out on me too but hey, they lasted almost two full years of bashing, mind you this was my first electric rc so it took some unnecessary punishment on top of that lol. The max6 really transformed this thing into a monster unfortunately winter struck at the perfect time so I couldn’t get footage! In my opinion if you know how to maintain an RC and put the right upgrades on (and don’t overdo it) the revo can be up there with the xmaxx in terms of durability I mean wow….Ive sent this thing off a 2 story house, skate ramps, triple back flipped it, and it’s cost me like $45 In 2 years outside of electronics and tires (didn’t vent my first set, that’s on me 😤)

My arrma granite has been launched off cliffs and a 3 story roof never an issue. However I blew the shit out of the transmission when I put 3s through it and tried to land some backflips 🤷🏼‍♂️ that said it feels much more premium than a slash. Traxxas makes (imo) the best 4s and 6s RCs, arrma makes the best 3s and brushed RCs, and then there’s a ton of great 8s’ but I’ve never tried one 😢

    I got mine for Christmas last year, excellent car. I stay on top of the esc fan maintenance so it'll last just open it up and put a light oil or transmission fluid on the bushing keeps it running smooth and quiet. I stripped the gears on both stock servos pretty early on a small rock jammed my servo arms. I didn't hesitate replacing it with a single savox servo. I would recommend getting the 1231SG (steel gear). Loads of torque and faster than the stock ones.

      Yea I’m gonna have to pick up a 2nd savox that one I have isn’t enough. I will say the max6 definitely increases power quite a bit and I haven’t had any drivetrain problems yet, though I only bashed 3 or 4 times before winter hit.

      Such an awesome rc, pick up the rear brace and straps for ~$25 and you shouldn’t have any durability issues! (Unless you have an accident 🥲😂)
      Motor fans are also really nice because it runs hot stock, no heat issues on 20/46 in any terrain with fans 👌🏾
      Try not to overuse TSM on grass or hard terrain to preserve stock servos and I really really caution you on self righting. The weight of the tires means it can do some DAMAGE to the gears going from full throttle to full reverse…. Blew a diff, motor, and spur first day I got mine but got it replaced. Haven’t used self right since and haven’t had any gear related issues since! Not even a plastic spur after all the failed doubles and triples 😎

    I love my erevo. It does Handel quite well. I think anything up to 4-s I would go arma. But 4-s and up I would go Traxxas all the way. The Kraton in the 6-s series require a lot of modifications to make it bash worthy and handle better. Like 300$ worth of mods. Better off getting the exb roller and buying electronics for it but then your at almost 1000$. Makes more sense to just get an Xmax at that point. Way more reliable. But the Arms 3-s and 4-s lineup is a blast. Traxxas offers nothing in that lineup for the money.
