I'll bet its like the T and E Maxx. The front and rear are the same, but everything in the middle is different. I'm sure the nitro revo front and rear ends will bolt straigt to the E chassis. They would be silly to change it and have to sets of parts.
I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...

Don't get me wrong, I'm VERY happy that the E-Revo has come out. I hope it ushers in a new wave of Electric racing at modern tracks. Personally however I'm a bit disappointed. I'd like to see a "Platinum" version which has all the hop-ups that the Platinum does. As it stands, I think I'm still going to convert a platinum rather than breaking all the parts on the E-Revo first.

I'm a little disappointed too. They already have an MT with dual Titans, time for Traxxas to release a RTR brushless Revo with all the 'fixins right out of the box. I do like the nice battery trays though.
I too think that a converted vehicle is more fun and unique. Still, it's nice to see Traxxas isn't deaf...

I'll probably wait for the "platinum" ERevo since I'd plan to race it. I don't want to buy an E-Revo and have to hop it all up, especially if traxxas decides to release a racier version.
On the note of releasing a racer version of the E revo, that would be great for bringing back electric mt racing. I can see an fully upgraded E Revo ,but with no ESC, Motor and Radio. That way we could drop whatever we want.

Oh dear God no, no , nooooooooo..................
I like the Erevo though, just a shame about the battery trays limiting the size of the batts you can fit, but a little Dremel surgery should fix that.

Dont worry. If it really is a problem the aftermarket companies will fix it in a jiffy. They always do.

I have to say the with the Mamba Monster in their, the appeal level goes way up!
I really like the body, very slick. It's nice to see something different.
Some other things I noticed is they are using the better 2075 servos instead of the 2055's, to bad they aren't MG though. I would have liked to have seen it with tires other than the talons as I have never been fond of them.

Found this video on youtube from rcx:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=10nA2sSpkZc
Said the end of May. Towards the end of the video they ave the brushless "concept" version - you can hear the rep saying that there are no plans to make it as production.
