Yup. Exactly what I mean. Take away that cost. The new radio might cost more to make, but you still get rid of the old cost of stuff

So I dont think its going to be much worse....

You hope, lol.

Given the evx2 and titans are only about $10 (pile of shite electronics) to make, I would be amased if the price came in at under $600. Are we taking bets- I say $649.99 when its actually for sale, - currently preorder prices are at $900+....

You can sell them on ebay for 100-120 bucks

So I know there worth more then 10 bucks. It will be under 600. Traxxas is about to make the most expensive RTR on the planet. Especially being its not something like 5th scale

I know the MMM speedo dealer cost is 140 or so depending on what dealer. All the parts going into it are alot cheaper as the rtr bundle then separate.

I wonder how the upcoming release of the brushless E-revo affect the production of the MMM V3. If CC can hardly keep up with the problems and production of the V3's, I won't be surprised if we have to wait longer.

I just hope it doesn't mean longer waiting time for the MMM.

Traxxas need their butts kicking, though; they're calling the the ESC the Mamba Max, not Mamba Monster as it should be (at least, on the second page of the promo bit). That's gonna cause a little confusion among the less brushless-literate...

But still...WOW. What a package.
The guys at Traxxas is bight, because if Traxxas has been call the ESC "monster Max" their sale would be drop a good 60% because all brushless guys in the world know that MMM is dump.
But, they've name it Mamba max, like that, Traxxas is sure to easily raise their sale

Traxxas nailed it on the head this time. They gave it the ESC and motor that everyone is putting in there E-revos, and they get a 2.4 system that everyone dreamed about too. If the 2.4 ghz system and the castle components check out good, then it is definitely on the list of things to buy (Or things I wish I could buy).


4 out of 3 people have problems with fractions.

That's funny b/c our lhs has three in stock. They ordered 4 and only 1 sold.
Im a little dissapointed that I didnt listen to my gut. I ordered the revo conversion, should be here tomorrow. But I didnt think it would be this good. I cant believe Traxxas is actually allowing another companies name on their product.

I wouldn't expect a price below $699.99

E-REVO $430 - $75 for evx2/titans
MMM combo $350
basically equaly out to getting the 2.4Ghz radio for free at $700.

As for me, I already have the E-REVO, MMM, Tekno Neu 1515 2.5d so all I need is that slick mounting bracket for the MMM! I've been running mine on 4s but just ordered 2 3s packs from Neu so it ought to be a rocket and I'd rather run a 1700kv motor on 6s than a 2200kv, just my opinion there.


RC-Monster RC8T 1515 2.5D/MMM/5s RC-M 4500mah
SC10 MMPro 13.5T 2s NeuEnery 5000mah
RC18T Mamba 25/5400kv 2s lipo + 6s NiMh

The EVX1 was a novak. Traxxas will probably do the same thing to castle eventually.
