Traxxas website no brushless E-revo?

[thesickness]

looks like they took the brushless E-revo off the front page of Traxxas.com does this mean they are not releasing it till all electrics are a GO?

[brushlessman]

no look under electrics. they just have a promo on the slayer

[HoovHartid]

meh, maybe nothing.

just a new promo for $50 off.

the BL erevo is still listed under their products pages.

[thesickness]

do you guys think its actually worth the $680 plus dollars or just get the regular ER and convert?

[Seattle Slew]

IT's worth it, we have done the math

[HoovHartid]

yup, listen to sleepless. totally worth it

[DockBrown88MPH]

yeah... totally worth it... >_> I bought a 2nd E-Revo and waiting for the 2200KV combo.

2nd ER-$449
2200 MMM V3 combo- $296.00
Total: $745
ER Brushless:$680

Difference: $65, but you get a 2.4 radio. I didn't add it in because I have a spare RX from my Spektrum.

Oh well... just doing my part in jogging the economy. and I have intentions of spending another $2000 on this hobby by March 2009 O_o

The ERBL is back on the front page now. It wasn't there yesterday, but is there today. Still says January 2009, but financially for me, that works. Plus, it rains a lot here in the winter months so I wouldn't be driving it anyways. I actually just old my E-Revo to get this BL version. I, as above, did the math and it does save you. Unless you already have an FM or 2.4 radio, then it is a good way to go.

How much did you get for your e-revo?

[DockBrown88MPH]

I could have done that to... but I just have so much history with my twin VXL ER, that I can't sell her. Oh the summer days bashing at the park, the wild dogs chasing her, and the crowds that gathered to watching this thing speeding across the fields.

that's a good question... how much did you sell your old one for? What did you have packing in it? Stock? I think it's more fun to buy the combo pack and install it yourself, unless you dont have a 2.4 radio, but the Traxxas radio from the looks of it is a bit on the cheap side.

I almost tried building my own E-Revo from scrap, part by part... man... just going through page 1 cost over $400 smacks.

i already have a 2.4 and have a NEU motor all i would have to buy would be the speed control so im wondering if its really worth it or not? hmmmmmmmmmm wish i could sell my nitro revo to help fund this project, but since the ER came out nitros are worth nothing now

[DockBrown88MPH]

Convert it! man, I wish I knew you had a nitro earlier. I wanted to buy a nitro Revo to CONVERT to an E-Revo. It's nice buying an E-Revo and all, but I think it's a lot more fun to convert one.

Sell it, I'm sure there are others like me that are anxious to buy a Revo to convert.
