Default How long?

How long do you think it will be before Traxxas makes a new revo? Like a gen 2?

Most likely never, they will have new design ideas and will just make a whole new truck.

well people liked the gorillamaxx conversion but it's expensive so traxxas may want to release an electric revo RTR or hopefully a kit that will cost less than the gorillamaxx and then they get all the business

if there was a revo kit, id buy it, put a fully moded os .18 in it from tower and a computerized futaba remote. now that would be one bad***** car! but as its only a ready to run i cant afford to do that.[&o]

companies should release an RTR and kit version of all their popular cars. It wouldn't be that hard all they have to do is take the car off the production line before it recieves its engine/ motor/ receiver/ servos. I think for companies like traxxas and HPI it would totally make sense since many people who race or already have good electronics/ want to upgrade parts soon are detered from buying their RTR cars. I couldn't beleive that the Hellfire was RTR. I mean it was aimed at racers so why would they put in a radio? its not like most racers use the radio that comes with the kit! same with the engine, a lot of people would just put in a sweet racing engine rather than use the K4.6 although I have heard good stuff about it...

So many people love traxxas, I just think that 95% of their vehicles arent that great, the revo and the jato arent bad but everything else is outdated technology.
