Race Inspired Traxxas Revo 3.3
Traxxas has released yet another Traxxas Revo 3.3. The newest Traxxas Revo keeps a sharp focus on core performance elements as the lightest, quickest, and most versatile Revo 3.3 yet. The new Revo 3.3 chassis layout borrows from the exclusive Revo Platinum Edition with race-inspired features such as a compact receiver box that includes an integrated personal transponder mount for race day. The legendary high revving power of the national championship winning TRX 3.3 Racing Engine drives a low mass 2-speed transmission for amazing acceleration and 45+mph top speeds. Time and time again, Traxxas Revo has proven the benefits of its visionary design, and the newest Revo continues the legacy.
Traxxas Tubes Aluminum Turnbuckles
Traxxas innovation strikes again with the introduction of Traxxas Tubes aluminum turnbuckle toe links for Revo. Traxxas Tubes are 30% lighter than the stock steel toe links, plus they’re 4-times stiffer and more than double the strength of aftermarket titanium! Simply put, these are the strongest toe links you can buy for your Revo. The secret is in the unique patent-pending hollow tube design that maximizes stiffness and resistance to bending, while at the same time reducing weight. Plus, the beefy size tells everyone your Revo means business. Traxxas Tubes are manufactured from high-grade 7075-T6 aluminum and anodized brilliant fire red. To prevent marring the finish, a metric aluminum wrench is included for adjustment. The broad center nut makes it easy to line up the wrench for fast, trackside tuning. A handy machined groove on one end easily identifies the left hand threads.
RPM Axle Carriers for the Revo
Well RPM has manged to take a sweet monster truck such as the Revo and find a way to improve it when you thought there wasn’t a way to improve it – introducing the RPM axle carriers for the revo!
They’ve painstakingly redesigned our axle carriers for the Traxxas Revo to improve the durability, strength, and reliability of this much-abused part. The most noticeable difference over a stock part is the addition of two huge bearings per axle. Our outer bearings are the same as the ones used in our beefed-up T-Maxx axle carriers a 15mm diameter by 5mm wide bearing. Additionally, the new inner bearings are a huge 21mm in diameter and a fat 5mm wide as well. Both bearings are 3mm larger in diameter and 1mm wider than the stock inner and outer bearings. The extra width adds a total of 2mm of additional contact with the axle for super smooth, longer running performance. RPM bearings are corrosion-resistant stainless steel, ABEC-3 quality bearings with our blue nylon shields for the ultimate in dirt & rust protection. The bearings included with each kit have bearing balls 33% larger than the stock version, twice the load rating over the stock bearings, and over 3x the fatigue life as well!
Premature differential in Revo’s
On Nov. 4th Traxxas has released a service bulletin regarding the differentials in their new monster truck the Revo prematurly failing. Traxxas claims the failing diffs are due to “out-of-specification differential output gears”, however they have corrected the problem and are working with customers which have the bad diffs.
If you’re an owner of a Traxxas Revo which diffs are going bad I’d recommend checking Traxxas Service Bulletin page for more details on how to get them fixed.
