Yep. It’s a process indeed. FO conversion is a must in my opinion. I fought with the reverse in my 2.5 for a while. Took it out and decided no Traxxas nitro I ever own will have a reverse. So, I’ve done them all since then. It increases reliability too.

Those OS carbs wake it up doesn’t it? 😀

Don’t give up on that revo. And, start coming to terms with, diving in and fixing it yourself. It’s your car. You gotta do your own wrenching to learn the car. It’s frustrating at times but, it’s how you learn to build the best nitro for you. I certainly understand why you sent it back. I...
