Thanks m8 :)

I love them too, they work superb any where( grass, snow, sand, mud). With hi speed gearing you can run them on water!

Nice ^^

Gotta love carbon lightweight Revos. Although the way i see it is that if you're saving all that weight on the chassis add it back on with hop ups and FAT WHEELS!

I think the first thing I will do is go onto traxxas and find a manual.

Once you get your head around it they're quite a straightforward R/C to strip down, any questions just fire me a PM or start a build thread

:good:

will be working this weekend, so hopefully i will get a chance to start the strip down next weekend ( wife permitting of course )

And i think i will start a re-build thread.

If you need a hand at all, just give me a shout, I'll happily meet up if you wish :thumbsup:

I havent managed to get started on the strip down and rebuild as yet, been working over last weekend, and dealing with all that snow this week as well..... Shovel on stand by for this weekend coming.

Thanks for the offer, i will be looking up to you and the beard for inspiration as the build starts.

Started to collate a list of bits i would like and need.

No problem at all, as Beard has said, they are very simple to work on once you know your way around them. What sort of plans do you have for it? Just a full strip down and check over just now?

I know it needs a new lid, but just had to show off her new shoes!

Wearing her old Truggy footwear.

Here's her new shoes before fitting.
