Coming to a bash near you! The RevoE.E is back!   The sound of a mod1 pinion in a compostite spur was music to my ears last night. I finished up soldering the new (and much simplified by adding an RX batt) wiring harness last night and made a few bench test runs. I need to tiddy up a few things on it after work, but it should be back to pulling wheelies on demand tonight! Here are a few of the stats and changes on the RevoE.E V2.0:

I used a Blue Groove conversion to replace some of my homemade aluminum brackets and mounts with carbon fiber mounts
RC-Monster motor mount
RC-Monster mod1 pinions
MaxAmps 4s 6000mah
1500mah RX hump pack
Wanderer 9XL
Mamba Max
RPM corners
Tony's Screws as always

I also finally fixed all the problems that were incured when I decided to see what it would take to break it last spring. Surprisingly, it wasn't nearly as bad as I had originally thought. There was one slightly bent push rod and 6 or 7 rod ends that needed to be replaced. That's it.... Shocked I haven't weighed it yet, but V2.0 should be significantly lighter over the original as well. I dropped all the aluminum mounts as well as the wing and mount and went to the 4s instead of 14 subCs. I'll get some pics up tonight of the re-build!

Thanks there Buddy! I'm pretty proud of my digs, for sure.

I finished buttoning up and ran a full 4s through it in the back yard under the night light and it's running like a champ. WOHOO!

That lid with it's bright color's looks pretty darn good !!!! Where did you scrounge that up?

It's almost like a whole nother Revo. The different wheel & tire combo aint hurtin' it too much either.  Wink

Why thank you guys. I got that lid with the Rustler roller I bought about 1 1/2 years ago and it's just been laying around. It's a little short, but chopped off it works good.
