Still putting together snow vid of the first REVO, it's gonna be pretty good, trust me.

We actually put in a Velineon system in it and geared up to 18/46 from the 12/46, and it was running good; I punched to full throttle down the icy road it roared to a pretty impressive speed that was quite a bit faster than the Mamba 4600 on the same battery. Only problem was right after that my 76 amp 3s battery could NOT take it and dropped below 9v setting off the Low-voltage on the VXL ESC putting into 50% mode. Reset it, tried another speed run, but almost everytime I got up to full throttle it would cut-off. I manged to get a full-throttle down-hill speed run without it cutting out. The Velineon could have been pulling 100 amps or more, so either better battery or gearing down, temps were still good.

But more importantly another roller revo was had but this time without a transmission or Rc monster mount. A E-maxx transmission will most likely be loaded on to it, but the new E-maxx transmission looks like it would be worth waiting for. Too bad it has a 2.5 chassis, good thing was it was had for only $110 shipped.

Pics of the 3.3 with the Velineon and the new revo:

Got the Revo 3.3 video done with all the snow driving. It turned out pretty well. Put alot of hours into it. It's got exactly one wheelie in it, I found a nice patch of cement that wasn't covered in ice or snow so as to get some wheelie traction. And yep, put in the Velineon, and it was sweet. Take a look:

Very slick video, I really like how you synced the action and the music. Looks like a good preformer with the velineon motor.
