the revo diffs are the exact same ratio as the emaxx. sylvester, try a 16 tooth pinion.

will do , this truck is probably a little fast because it is pretty light! it weighs under 9 lbs..... ill get a weight soon.

a 16 will do but like i said the emaxx uses an 18t pinion and a 66t spur

yes it does, but on 14 cells traxxas reccomends to gear down a tooth or 2.....

im pretty sure it is only 1 tooth but that is just what i was told and i thought you said you were only running it 12 cells

Im running it on 14 cells, and due to the light - weight factor, i can probably go about a 17-18 t pinion.

would you make up your mind here it says you are running it on 12 cells :035: but either way with a light truck it shouldnt matter to much whether you run a 17 or 18 tooth pinion :027:

When i posted that, the 12 cells reffered to my e-maxx, now i have the revo with 14 CELLS! It changed the performance alot!

ok thank you for the clarification i thought i was loosing my mind there for a second

Sorry for the confusion, my fault for not explaining it in the first place.

its ok i get confused quite easily

I have no experience with 14 cells, all my racing was done on 12 cells, but I can tell you i'm close to 30 with 12. I broke in all my titans with a power supply at 6 volts for 30 minutes and used Prolong oil treatment on everything (bushings commutator and bearings in the truck). In the Emaxx i could keep up with a nitro Tmaxx (TRX.15 not 2.5)on our little track. I have not done this to my G2R yet but i can still keep up with a stock revo on the same track (thanks to the supperior handling. The gearing i used then and now is 18/66 but with 14 cells i would go with 16 tooth pinion with a 66 spur. Let me know how it runs with 14 cella i might do it when i get better cells, all mine suck bad.

How did you get it down to 9 pounds? I just swapped over from a revo and mine weighs 12 pounds RTR with batteries

First off, i have all the aluminum lightweight pillowballs, rocker posts, and i have traxxas revo response tires, mounted on hurricanes, single speed tranny, ans more things, ill tell you more once i remember what.

I took it out for another run, it was great! The runtime was fanominal and the batteries only charged up to 1800-1900 mAh range. I have a question, in the g2r kit, the new aluminum rear skid plate replaces the stock one, how can i prevent from loosing any suspension pins, the stock plastic one holds them in place so they stay in, ive already lost 1 pin from my run, The fronts o.k beacause the new skidplate goes over the stocker. Any help would be appreciated.

do you have to replace them with c clips on them.

coolhand, the suspension pins on the revo just slip in there. theres 4 bottom (2 front 2 rear per end of the revo so technically 8), and the uppers are 1 piece. on the bottom there is no way of using clips since they would com out anyway.

oh, and syvester. it doesnt replace it... it goes over the stock like the front...

So is there a fix? i dont wanna buy new ones every run:( Mike, what do you use in your g2r to prevent them from slipping out?

sylvester look up :005: :005:

IT DOES? LMAO! Ill look in to it right away!

Sylvester. The Gorilla skid goes over the stock revo skid. the stock skid holds the pinsand you hahe the standoffs to attach the Gorilla skids. Look at the instructions and you'll see it is similar to the front. Also thanks for the info on the lightweight mods

When in doubt look up

I just finished putting it on correctly, thanks, it looks much better now, at the beginning it looked like it wouldnt fit, its on correctly now, no problemo crazy.

Good. Glad you got it right

Crazy, to shave off even more weight, you can get the traxxas "Tubes" , they really take off a bit, and if your really a mad freak for light -weight revo, you can grind a bit off the arms and some unneeded plastic parts without sacrificing too much strength, but that is a bit past crazy. I bet there is more ways to save weight , thats all i know of for now.

what i did was remove the front bumper and left the mount and dremeled the little nubs off. looks good to. another thing you can do to them to keep it from wheelieing so high is to flip the rear bumper and then flip the mount. look at it and you'll see. instead of tilting up if its tilted down it wont come up so high.

Squee
not much of a wheeleing problem with titans and a 1" stretch, but thanks.

Sylvester
thanks for the info. I'm not weight freak, but i would like to lose aboput 2-3 pounds off the RTR weight before i go brushless and LIPO

Hello boys and girls, here are some updated pics~~~!!!

I will soon have a bl setup in this monster, and i got a new radio, the DX3!!!:):):):) The receiver it comes with is TINY!!! I will be making a mount for the little sucker, pics will follow, and a mount for the 9920.

nice truck

Thanks, ill have some updated pics once i get some of the "new stuff" :)

Nice RC, Sylvester! I can imagine it's awesome to drive.

Just for the record, I still keep an EMaxx with stock motors. On my small Wood Track, it's just right.

Thanks daf, for gearing im thinking 16/51. How would this be on 14 cells? (on a 10L motor)

Some updated pics of my G2R:)

One more.. .

Now i was wondering, should i make a "L" bracket for the speed controller, or should i do it differently, if so, please and reccomendations would be awesome! :) Now all i need is a strobe slipper/ofna gear, and a pinion. ;)

**p.s, i knew that the newer 9920's had 2 big capacitors, but for some reason mine has 4 smaller ones, is this ok? Thanks.

If it works okay. I would say it is fine.

Good to know:)

4 smaller caps or 2 bigger caps - same thing - your fine. Dont :026: it....

ok, good to know, any reccomendations on mounts? or should i just maake an L mount?
