ok it to a big open parking lot with a buddy and his savage 4.6 and his 1/18 brushless savage which is crazy fast for its size, but not as nearly as fast as my revo. He couldn't get his 4.6 started due to problems with the one way bearing.
I got to see what my revo could do as far as speed. This thing is fast! Front tires barely can stay on the ground. Ran great kept the head covered double layered with a sock. And temp stayed around 210°f. Was going to tape my phone to it and use GPS to calculate speed. But I broke my revo. Its still faster than my buddies brushless savage on 2s and settings all on 100%.
Well I decided to jump some snow banks. Launched it off one about 2 feet high trying to clear one about 5 feet high. Went bout 25 feet in the air into the face of the other snow bank.
Broke a front axle carrier, bulkhead, a arm hinge pin, front body mount.
Ordered parts off eBay. Got front and rear bulkheads, aluminum bulkhead plates, 2 sets of rockers, all the hinge pins, pair of axle carriers plus miscellanius parts for $25.
Also broke my receiver antenna in half. (Am radio setup)
