I've put quite a bit of use on my Losi Muggy now, and comparing it against Traxxas I would still take the Losi any day. I would love to see a Revo suspension on a Muggy though--I've broken 2 pairs of stock control arms, sheared the camber rod out of a RPM arm, and broken a stock front spindle on the Muggy. The T-Maxx is out-dated and has a lot of issues and should be discontinued, but the Revo mostly just needs a tougher drivetrain. If Traxxas put in diffs of comparable design and quality of 1/8th scale diffs with 8mm axles, and CVAs the Revo would be much better than it is.
Approximately one hour on my E-Revo and I busted up all kinds of parts, but after ~6 hours total on my Muggy I'm really glad I sold almost all my Traxxas RCs. The control arms broke on bad landings at a BMX track (I jumped it pretty hard and it took it until the bad landings broke control arms) and the spindle broke after ramming into a concrete island in a parking lot. I give Losi a 9/10 overall for it, if it came with aluminum spindles and blocks stock and tougher control arms it would be a definite 10/10. Revo/E-Revo I give 7/10 for inferior drivetrain construction. |
yup the rods are crap, but if you bash the stock steel ones are best because you can bend them back, and if you race the red ones, They snap instead of bending
|
I can't imagine treating my revo ny worse and I haven't bent or snapped any of mine. I upgraded to tubes cuz they look cool :P
I dunno what you guys do to your trucks... |
Breaking the Revo pushrods is most likely caused by direct impact, or more likely, the suspension bottoms out too easy. Once the springs reach the end of their travel, the force has to go somewhere, and bends/snaps the rods. Stiffer springs (and thicker oil) helps a lot.
|
I guess I do have my suspension tuned to suit my style of driving...
|
well i never actually bent the steel one but i let someone drive it and they crashed into the tire of a car. and i snapped one of my tubes when my brother got in the was and i couldn't see. but it was in where the tube connects to the rod end so i crazy glued it. and put it on one of the back suspension and its holding up great
|
TRAXXAS all the way. Also they have the best customer support.
|

|
