Mini e revo lipo batteries8/5/2023 ![]() Out of the box we were hitting some awesome speeds! With the included NiMH Traxxas battery we were hitting 30mph with no problem. We applaud Traxxas for including this in all their new ESC’s as it has proven a big help with new people interested in the hobby. The training mode lets you have all the fun at 50% power while you are getting used to the controls of your new vehicle. The 1/16 E-Revo, it’s ready for experienced users as well as new bashers with the Traxxas Training mode that they have built into the ESC. If you can afford the extra $80 or so, we recommend you make the jump to brushless and 2.4Ghz. If you are looking to save a few $$, Traxxas also has a brushed version of the 1/16 E-Revo that comes with a AM radio. We are using the Brushless VXL version that comes with the TQ 2.4Ghz radio system. How big? Well, lets dive into our review of the Traxxas 1/16 E-Revo VXL!įirst, a few facts about the version we are working with. From it’s power and speed, to hop-ups and durability, the 1/16 E-Revo does everything big. ![]() To protect the receiver from dust and water a custom shaped blue O-ring seals the receiver box.While a lot of people call it the Mini E-Revo, the good people over at Traxxas will be quick to point out that there is nothing ‘mini’ about it. The antenna and servo wires route neatly through a special watertight seal. Traxxas' patented waterproof receiver box puts 1/16 E-Revo VXL in a league of its own. 1/16 E-Revo VXL's waterproof electronics and fully sealed receiver box let you make tracks in conditions that leave other trucks parked at home. Punch it off the line and TSM goes to work sensing the vehicle’s direction and making steering corrections to provide straight-ahead full-throttle acceleration without fishtailing, spin-outs, and loss of control. Traxxas Stability Management TSM makes it possible to experience all the extreme power, speed, and acceleration that was engineered into Traxxas models by making it much easier to control the vehicle on common slippery surfaces such as loose dirt, smooth concrete, and even ice and snow. No other RTR truck, regardless of scale, makes it so easy and affordable to experience this level of high speed and wheelie-popping power. Install a second 6-cell battery to unleash the Velineon Brushless Power System's full fury, and E-Revo VXL jumps to over 50mph. At 30+mph with the included 6-cell NiMH battery, E-Revo VXL is nearly twice as fast as most mini models, and faster than most electric RTR trucks of any scale. Some mini-models are "fast for a mini." That's not good enough for Traxxas. In 1/16 scale, it is an even more impressive achievement of packaging and performance optimisation that could only come from Traxxas, The Fastest Name In Radio Control. Intricately moulded as a single piece, the monocoque chassis balances strength and weight to far surpass the standards of the "mini" category. This superior technology provides capability, performance, and tuning functions at the absolute pinnacle of truck design. ![]() ![]() The Revo's rocker-actuated suspension has been expertly adapted to 1/16 scale with all its functionality and performance intact, right down to the oil-filled, threaded-body GTR shocks. The E-Revo VXL is built on the race-winning, track-proven innovation of the Revo and E-Revo models. ![]()
