Thanks guys. Can I run the truck as-is for awhile or will it cause more damage if I do? It still runs great. I dread taking all that crap apart... :$#!!:

Thanks bro. Much appreciated. :)

Gully, could you post a link to some instructions on how to shim a diff? I frankly have no idea how to do that, or even what that means. LOL

Thanks pal. I'm just using the stock Nimh battery so I can't do standing backflips with that - I was just practicing backflip jumps. I'm not that experienced on RC jumping, so quick question: When...

So today I was practicing backflips with my stock MERV (bad idea I guess), and after a really ugly landing, the truck started clicking everytime the wheels spun, and the wheels had a LOT of...

Gotcha. So if I ran a 3s on a 23/50 I would need to limit my driving style to speed runs on smooth surfaces, correct?

So I bought a MERV and love the thing just driving on the included nimh battery, but I wanna go crazy with lipo now. :) This is my first brushless model - I used to just do nitro, so I have no idea...

Steve, thanks for the help. I unscrewed the tie rods and that pretty much did the trick - it loosened the wheels up considerably, although they still offer more resistance than usual. But back to the...

Thanks everyone. Now I think I've made myself an even bigger problem. :$#!!: I was unscrewing the bottom skidplate and I think I stripped one of the screw heads. I put my wrench on it and it slips,...

Thanks a million Steve. I am a complete noob to this kind of thing but I did loosen pretty much everything trying to find the cause to my old problem. So could you tell me, how to I loosen the diff?

Anyone willing to help me out here? The truck is sitting on my workbench and is giving me a dirty look for not working on it yet...

Been working on my Merv (see other thread entitled "Anything to worry about?" for that), and now for some reason if I try to turn either both from wheels or both rear wheels (in which case it should...

Thanks Jimmie. I'm on it. :)

Okay, so I get to ask ANOTHER question: What and where are the rear bulkheads? :$#!!: Obviously the rear of the truck, but I looked in the manual and disassembling...

Got it. Thanks guys. Both gears are in perfect condition - they each just have a tiny bit of caked dirt in between a few of the teeth (which I took care of with compressed air). So, if I could ask,...

Thanks for the help, devildog. :) So I perused through my manual and couldn't find anything, plus I'm a technological dummy- where can I find the spur gear? Sorry, that's probably the dumbest RC...

I had an identical problem with mine the first day I got it (just a few days ago). I'm starting to think that these micro-servos aren't the greatest to come from Traxxas...

So two days ago I bought the Mini E-Revo VXL. I apparently had bad luck and got one with a not-so-good steering servo because there was a mechanical problem with it after about 10 minutes of the...

I actually had a dream that my Revo had a ridiculously powerful motor in it (not that the 3.3 isn't), and I started it for the first time after putting this motor in it but for some reason I didn't...

What state are you from? Thanks, nice looking truck. :)

Sent you a PM...

Thanks for the help, Nitronaught. I understand what you mean.

Got it. Thanks so much.

Thanks for your help. I didn't take that badly or anything, just as good, unbiased advice.


However, this is a 3.3 model, not a 2.5. Does that score me any extra points? lol

Thanks everybody! So when I run stampede tires, I shouldn't use an optional pinion gear because the added weight might cause overheating? Thanks again everyone.

Hello all,

I hope this post isn't breaking any rules. I'm trying to sell my Revo 3.3 at the Market Place for $250, and I've finally got a potential buyer but they say it's only worth $100. My...
