I broke 3 diffs on my little E-Revo in the first week. Then I installed a mid diff, shimmed the axle diffs, geared down it a bit and adjusted the slippery clutch and never broke a diff again. This little RC makes so much fun and need so much less space to drive properly. Thanks for your vid. You did some crazy jumps ;)

Dear outsourced, we all love you brother! You put on video 📹the emotions we feel for these little cars 🚗. So much fun! I just found out my nurse loves rc too, here's a shout out to Lauren 🤗❤BB

I Love the Mini eRevo! Me and my Son have the brushed Version each! My Tip for the Differential Issue (We broke about 6-7 before we did that): Get Some Aluminum Skid Plates, for the front an back! The Differential housing on this one is a 2-piece Plastik housing, which spreads out on every landing and gives to much gap, so the Gears easily can worn out. Shimming can help also, but with a solid "cap" on the differential housing we had no more broken diffs anymore! Greetings from Germany!

That's what the hobby is all about! Sounded like you had a blast! Was awesome to watch!

Great video! This RC defines what a small 1/16 scale RC can do. Even the X- Maxx is having almost the same speed! Nice Review!

Thank you for the videos! You’re one of my favorite creators! I’ve learned so much from you since I got back into rc!

Your joy and love for RC is infectious. You've got yourself a new subscriber

Wow, that little truck really amazed me!

I have the big brother/little brother combo, too!

Happy to see you uploading again!

Love my Merv! I bought the brushed version, and an $65 esc and 550 motor package from Amazon. Only things left stock is the chassis, front diff, and wing mount. I have broken and upgraded everything eles. 45 minutes of run time with parallel 2200mah 2s. 60+ mph

Was my first car back into rc 3 months ago . I now own a arrma talion exb as well. God I love rc lol.

It's a cool RC. Love my E-Revo 2.0. I bought my little brother in law in the Philippines the Stampede 4 X 4 so that he would have more ground clearance. He loves it.

Glad to see some more of your videos

That mini jump nice. 😍

Awesome! Video that's RC is Great👍👍🙂

Wow that little things is amazing 👏

Man, I really love your videos of you reviewing and bashing. I look forward to being notified of ur new content wish u still made more vids as you used to. Keep it up mate!

I love your vids i can feel your energy and excitement in them keep up the filming 😀

I have a fully built mini revo. On 2S, the drivetrain is pretty much bullet proof. On 3S, get ready to spend time and money. If you want to give it a chance on 3S, back off the slipper clutch a bit.

I have the VXL 1/16 Summit and on 3s they are insane! Also have the brushed mini erevo and I really enjoy it

My E-Revo vxl 2.0 is definitely my go to off road vehicle….I’m not really into big air jumps …. I run my E-Revo when I’m into terrain cruising…. Lots of speed with minimal jumps … that’s why I seldom break anything….. I was gonna get the little E-Revo but I just think it’s a lil expensive for what it is ….. just my opinion…… always good content my friend…… ☮️~~~~~~I’m out!!👍🏻😎

I love the energy 😂👍

Mine just started clicking last night. I have had this truck for probably around 10 years, haven't driven it much lately due to stock tires being bald, but I always drove it on 2S and never had an issue with the diffs. Prior to driving it yesterday, I put on some Duratrax Lockups...a little larger than stock with far more grip. I think that was the nail in the coffin for the diff. Time to watch your video about fixing the diffs and tear into mine!

that mini revo is sooo much fun!

Good video brother, the MERV was my most recent RC purchase. You need to do the velcro on the the sides of the battery boxes to secure the body. Also try it with two lipo batteries in with parallel adaptor if you think one lipo is fast!

Loooove my MERV. like you noticed 3s is fun and crazy but it will kill diffs. Especially on grass. 2s is fun and safe on the diffs. Kind of an all around fun RC.

Install the speed pinion gear n u won’t believe the power it makes on 3s 1/4 throttle n it’s on the wheelie bar like right now lol it’s a fun lil rc for sure

Great video. Perfect timing - we were recently looking to see if you had a video on this car, because we knew you had one from when you described the intermediate axis theorem and used it as a model. We wanted to get your opinion on it before buying one. We actually literally picked one up last night, woke up, and you had a video on it! Irony . . .

Love it, I bet the next video is putting 60w shock oil in my mini e revo

Looks crazy fun

$300USD for a 1/16 scale? That's 1/10 scale price. Cool little rig that has it's place but so many other choices in that price range for bigger (better?) rc cars. Thanks for your video bud, always enjoy your vids.

I gave up on my mini Revo years ago.... Kept breaking on 2s.... I can't believe you didn't break it lol

I'm buying one next month looks like a lot of fun

I love the merv! It will eat diffs if you dont shim them. Hot racing makes a steel diff and alum bulkhead that will never ever strip again. Im running a 540 brushless in mine and no problems at all.

Just got the 1/16 slash brushed t12 550, and man I was having fun in the dirt. Can't way to put the brushless in there

Awesome video

Fun little RC! 🚗

When are they going to add the 2.0 improvements to the mini

Sweet little RC 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Nice comments thank you. Traxxis is behind the times with the charger… our car does not have a cigarette lighter outlet, only usb !!! 😮

Not stupid, just enjoying your time.great video

Sweet demo and great little zippy rc!

For around that price i would rather buy a Typhon 3s instead which I did and bought a HBX 16889pro for $78

Nice man!

Nice Video man👍

I added a center diff to mine a while back after I broke like 5 diffs and I’ve never broken one since

You should add the center diff #7014 and hot racing’s sway bar kit. That should help with wheelies and rolls.

I have a little 1/16 brushless Q903 truggy and i love it so I was thinking about getting one of these but they’re $400 on Amazon. That’s the same price as my 1/10 arrma vorteks haha

Install the speed pinion and two nihm batteries in series and the 1/16 is ridiculously fast.

We drill street signs in to the base of our ramps.

Get a T Bone Racing chassis brace/skid plate and shim your diffs and it turns into a TANK! Ive got mine setup to run 6s in the hopes of breaking 100mph. Oh, it likes doing front flips more than backflips by the way...

I bought this rc car it's really good for beginners (I am beginner)

Seems just like it’s big brother…always breaking 😝 but that’s the hobby have fun, break em, repeat

Fun little car but waaay to expensive. The price kinda shocked me and I am driving 1:5 scale gassers like the Losi 5T

Looks like a fun car, but to be fair $300 for this little car that struggles to get through grass. Arrma 3s line is a way better value IMHO but I get it this was not a Arrma vs traxxas thing, thanks for doing this for those who wanted to see. It.

You can also use that 1400mAh 3S LiPo in your TRX-4 I think.

I’ve gone through front and rear a arms and 2 spurs on my erevo 1/16 brushed model in the 1 year of owning it switched to rpm a arms no more issues the spurs well I have no clue 😂

Wow, so a LiPo makes that big of a difference? I guess because more voltage? Still learning how all this works. :) Surprised that a VXL came with a NiMH battery though.

Body like the v1 breaking diffs like the v1!

Damn, a 1/16th with a VXL is insane! I still have the brushed on my Rustler 4x4 but it suits my needs so far :) EDIT: LOL'd at the Hello Kitty tape!

Nice vid 👍🏻 get a centre diff for it

loved it man

nice

Nice video. Considering this car. Does anyone make a higher end 1/16 scale car? Like a race ready one? Would rather spend more and get less breakage. But like this size platform.

Great Video! I bought the E-revo 1/16 brushed version. It doesn't go as fast but still a great little RC. Do you know if you can use two lipo batteries since it has two battery departments?

I have an xmaxx and had an erevo v1 1/10 brushless before that. I was looking for a smaller car that I can carry around and use with fpv but I guess I'll go with trx-4. Speeding on low scale vehicles causes too much problems, especially when you crash.

Good car but the reason I don’t have one is the diffs break every time

Shim the diffs and put the gpm rear aluminum skid plate on it and if you’re willing to spend a little more money on the center diff with some silicone earplug in it you will never break diffs again on 3s

I just got one last week, might be my favorite rc that I own tbh

I thought my cheeta duct tape was bad 😂👌

now i wonder what would happen if you put two 3s lipos in it hahahah

Does this car have brushed or brushless motor?

Thanks for sharing

Hi, I was wondering where you got the orange and blue body? I seen it in the 1/16 scale of the e revo but not the e revo vxl. I don’t really want to buy another car to just get the body lol

Do you think this would be a good first basher for an rc newb? We go and live in the AZ desert for the winter. And I mean the desert in a camper. I am disabled but am mobile and looking for a hobby to help keep me moving. I am on a limited budget and thought the 1/16 e revo might make a good desert basher. thanks for your videos and any thoughts you have on a first basher that is pretty durable.

I just got my son the slash version of it...I should of gotten the brushless model. The brushed motor isn't fast enough and the battery life is terrible ...hobbywing to the rescue

so for mostly grass lawn driving, the Rustler would make the better choice? (without going too big or too expensive, and still kinda durable) Thanks for the videos!

Where can buy the smaller any link to buy

Dose the e revo 2.0 com in a one twelfth scale or tenth scale

I love my mini erevo I've beat the shit out of it and never broke anything besides the servo

I love your laugh when you're enjoying your cars. But it's not your fault for breaking the car. The big Erevo 2.0 makes the same sound when the ring gear teeth start sounding like Captn Crunch Cereal.🤣. But again you should be able to do a standing backflip in grass. Standing backflips and donuts I see do easy damage to drivetrain. Just accept that when doing those things something is going to break. That's just been my experience. You know Traxxas cars better than Traxxas.

I subscribed prior to seeing the hello kitty tape, luckily I’m not an Indian giver 😂😂 just kidding great video

I think you said what lipo it was and I might have missed it. But was that only a 2s??

i have the og mini e revo brushless

Was about to buy it until you broke the front diff in 3 minutes

Which size is the big one because I’m trying to buy one

E Revo 2.0 is a 1/10 scale

👌💯👌

The e revo is a fun truck but it’s not really reliable at all unless you put a quite a bit of money into it.

you just need a shim kit fixes that problem

you should try aixial scx 24!

Lol. Hello kitty tape!

Da sub button is now actually white

Yea the differentials in the revo 1/16 are extremely weak

Can you get them in the uk?

What 3s battery do you use?

You made the mistake of using a 3s battery. You can't use A 3S. It will ruin the car you need a 2s

My mini Revo is maxed out and haven't f..ked it up in 2 years. Of course I don't launch it 20 feet in the air. That's just friggin stupid ...imo. don't see the thrill In smashing into the ground at 30mph. Lame

Run it in 4s lipo
