I need one more 1/10 brushless truck for the wife. I found a 3.3 Revo that has been converted to brushless with a Tekno conversion. You decide if I buy it or not, I am on the fence.

Revo 3.3
Mamba Monster 2200kV system
MX3 2.4GHz radio
Tekno wing mount
Tekno brushless conversion
brand new crimefighters w/17mm hubs
lot of spare parts
1 4S lipo pack, 4000mAh 20C

The truck is used but not used up by any means. The brushless system is relatively new. All electronics are included. Body is beat.

I have negotiated him down to $300 for everything and it is a local deal so no shipping... After looking on eBay:

3.3 rolling chassis sell for ~$100-$140
Used Mamba Monster setups sell for ~$170-$190
Call it $50 for the used conversion and $50 for radio
$50 for the rest of the junk

Seems like on paper it's market value is $370-$430...

So, not a screaming deal by any means but not a bad deal.



RCU decides. Vote! The most votes decide whether I buy the setup or not! I will let you know when the pole closes (1pm PDT) and if I will or will not buy the setup based on your decision! No joking!

I did end up buying this since the poll said I should!

It is a nice truck. I did better than I thought. It had 17mm adapters, 2 sets of dish wheels with good tires, the stock talons, a spare transmission and some more upgrades. I will post pics soon.

Also, it was the 2650kV, not the 2200kV motor. Should be fun.
