How bout mini-o, mini-revo, mino - something LOL

I can see a mini revo hitting the market and if its anything like the "revo-lution" traxxas has created with the hottest MT ever - and Im sure the jato will end up tearing up tracks soon, its only time we see a MINI-REVO.......

Traxxas you with me? Gonna suddenly show up with this mini like the jato - POOOOFF outta nowhere!? I kinda like it actually...it creates alot or chaos among the peeps here!

If you need help testing and keep a secret feel free to send me a mini-tmaxx-o or whatever ill keep it on the DL during testing :)

[moparpede]

If anything, I think it will be similar to a mini-emaxx. Although a nitro mini would be amazing.

I dont think this is the right forum...jmo

[18t turbo]

yep, this is definately the wrong forum. But it would be awesome for a nitro, (as stated above) but that would be so hard to work on. :p

[SpeeD-Jr]

how about minio ( migno, for french people ) LOL so ugly.

[rustlerbum]

how 'bout they update their electrics for us electric guys? E-Jato please? or E-Revo...:cool:

it would be awesome if they could put a brushless system in their as long as they can keep the price reasonable.

I'm with you on the mini "something" I think it would be a hit.

[rustlerbum]

whats the point of a mini? i can't understand why you'd want a miniature revo, jato, etc...:rolleyes:

[elite]

Ya your right, minis are silly - im sure AE and all other manufactures arent make any money and no ones buying so why make minis. Whats the point right?

I dont like boats for example - but I know others do, theres a market for EVERYTHING and minis have a godo following and are actually fun. Its neat to see something small like a rc18 perform like a 1/10 scale toy, or real scale never the less......

ITS A TOY - just like your RC you own.

My 2 cents - totally off topic in this jato forum but I had to reply :)

[REVO Jake]

If they made a mini Nitro like the Revo I'd buy it in a heart beat...less fuel consumption cheaper parts and double the speed/fun

[binaryterror]

If the make an 1/8th scale buggy they might want to call it the Bugo :)

a .049 jato!! hahahahah I can see it now

[e-pedetk]

i saw a .15 mini t on ebay, thats not a typo, it actually had a sirio .15 in it. when i saw the vid, it looked just like a xxx-nt and it was rly har to control so i dont think a nitro mini would be reasonable.

0.5?! as in 0.50 > 0.15? i think you mean "0.05:cool:"

[BlitzK]

about 10-15 years ago cox produced an R/C car (on-road) that used a .049 for power, so it could be done.

Of course, with the motor, battery, and electronic (esc) technology of these days a nitro mini would be kinda dumb.

Or use a rotary engine, that would be cool. And a rebuild would only be apex seals and sleave:cool:

[RusRacer05]

yea but they dont and wont make em, they would be too complex to make, and no real use;) but you can get a rotary carb:D

ok you put that in your next rc car;) see how fast you go, oh thats right thats a plane engine YOU WONT MOVE. i know they make em for planes, but we are talking about "traxxas's next RC in the jato fourm" so i was refering to car & truck engines. maybe we should have water cooled marine engines, or some 10 cyl. viper engines :cool: that would be soo cool! lol, but realisticly, they dont, and wont make "Land engines" thats are rotary.

And you can run a supercharger on it:cool:

EDIT: The next car should be Mini-R. R standing for Rotary.

[RusRacer05]

RX8 boards? do they have rc car body fourms now?:confused: and what did it have a prop? so its like a fan car? and you can super charge any engine, it just ruins 2 stroke engines.

No, they have car boards, with the off topic discussion areas. It was a 4WD touring car, people on this board have put plane engines in their Revos, they didn't have props.

And you can build boost with this one, and it's a two stroke.

[RusRacer05]

i like the fact of a jet powered rc:D in the may ed. of rc driver someone put a jet engine in a kyosho!

You could use that wankel... but you'd have to do a lot of mods, and I can't see it being worth it.
