No, Daf. Same lower battery plate as the g2 chassis.

any news about when there gonna be out?

i have an emaxx and i was going to spend about $600 on it to make it stronger cause i like to bash and do jumps etc, but then i saw this and was wondering if it would be better if i get this conversion with a revo cause a revo is alot stronger than a e-maxx isnt it? and the suspension is cool.

According to Daniels experiences (he broke his first part last week on his e-revo) the revo is one strong truck!

Correct! (rodends hardly count ;) they just get tired) The busted part was a knuckle, btw. Hit a pole at almost WOT. Piece of luck there.

Yeah, in stock form, the Revo is much tougher than a Maxx. IMO.
Even the a-arms seem to have a clever design.

yeah the arms look skinny and weak but they are actually pretty strong aye!! i've been watching some bashing vids and the revo looks REALLY strong!!

Looks like im gonna get one too :D So i will need to buy the conversion kit + the front and rear ends of a revo + a brushless set up?

Welcome to the forums, Basketti!
I agree-stock truck vs. stock truck-the Revo is much more durable than the e-maxx. The e-maxx can be hopped up to no end, though, and is a bit easier to mount the electronics on to. I wouldn't trade my e-maxx for anything(or my e-revo).

e.t.a.?

[RC-Monster Mike]

In production now-should be available soon. Just working out the details(drive shafts, for example).

Cool, can't wait

Mike, will the gorilla maxx motor mounts work with this chassis?

[squeeforever]

im almost positive that it will since they use the same x-braces.

[RC-Monster Mike]

The motor mount will work, though the motor won't mount on the lower positions without hitting the shocks. It will indeed work, just have to use holes other than the lower ones.

Hey Mike. Is there any chance that the Gorilla motor mount can work on the REVO tranny? It's an idea that i've been toying with, the motor centered in the chassis and the spur off-centered. also two speeds are cool. If not, Why not the tmaxx tranny? It's spur is more centered and may make better contact.

[RC-Monster Mike]

Never tried it. I am pretty sure the revo tranny isn't a simple drop in, as the mount holes don't line up. The t-maxx tranny may work, but the offset spur gear may make it difficult to get the pinion/spur mesh, depending on the gear sizes.
