|  New revo crawler?
I know alot of you lads are against fully independent suspension for crawling, but i've gotta say... wow, the revo can really crawl. It seems like it would be a pretty good buy for someone who wants it all... bashing, racing, and crawling, for a good budget. What do you guys think about this? |

Yup, I made a clone of the revo seen on traxxas' website, right now it is in crawling form but give about 2 hours and I can be ready to race or bash. And I only have a little under $700 into it.  |

I started out with an Xfactor. It used to outcrawl(rock racing style) many, many txt's and clods! |

i wish they would jus pop a nice high power bl system in the rock revo for torque and since it would make it electric and do some custom 4 wheel steering

actually, i think it'll be easy for a revo to crawl. There's many gearing options, and many different engines for power. It's not like the x-factor, where you can't touch the throttle w/out flipping it on its back. The travel is good, the gearing CAN be good(if you know what you're doing), it is a low cg BUT w/ a high ride height... it's perfect. So you know what. |

I have a TLT like that. But see, I can be ready to bash/race in one hour and I spent half of what you did, and my TLT can actually crawl instead of rock hop. The revo on Traxxas' site can't crawl. Watch the video again, it falls off the rocks or pushes them to the side. Plus it is always going down hill. | |
