Tug Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 My money's on a C1 buggy, AKA the Apache/Axial releases of late. I think I'd prefer a 1/5 leccy anything, but with MS struggling to sell any of the CC 1/5 leccy systems, I think they are more likely to scale back to a size that's more affordable to the masses. However, to hold us in such suspense does indeed suggest this could be something big, no pun intended. Roll on the thirtieth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerrorTrooper Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Unlikely traxxas knows their main market is the rc cars that is why they have not come out with another boat etc.. for a long time. Also the way they have made the release a mystery means it is something they are proud of and they would not waist their time making a "boat etc" their featured product. http://traxxas.com/products/models/marine/5707spartan The Traxxas Spartan, Released under a year ago... It will certainly be a car though, as their teaser pic looked a bit like a 2 stroke buggy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumper Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 maybe they have decided that they are going to put a big block in a revo rtr! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adolf hamster Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 has anyone thought of trying to 'decode' the x? if the velineon was a v with some water, maybe this has something to do with x? although i'm at a loss as to what i'm not entirely sure about them releasing a 1/5th. current brainstorm ideas: moto-x, maybe its a bike? x as in the roman numeral? maybe its a new tenth scale? certainly the x could be in the name, a competitor to the exo with a similar name i think thats me out of ideas.

autobutcher Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 What with the world and his dog being skint I was hoping it might be more towards the cheaper to mid range of RC, not likely though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mini-z-awd Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 it would be quite funny if it was just another version of the 1/8 revo with some new parts and a new body but at a higher price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stumungous Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Whatever it is, it'll be underwhelming. I'd say it'll be something to compete with the HPI Apache or Axial Exo, especially as they sponsor a super buggy in the TORC series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revorocks Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I wouldn't mind a brushless system that actually lasts more than a month before blowing up, or a decent engine! Maybe a big block? But seeing as the way things are going I doubt it will be a nitro based release. I think it will be either 1/5 scale electric, something to compete with HPI's release of this Apache, or a rally car.
