E Revo 2 0 Or Rustler 4x4 VXL

[@bentipton1826]

I had the older rustler and a older revo. They’re both a lot of fun in their own ways despite being relatively similar. The revo handles better and it a lot of fun on rough terrain but man it’s a PITA to work on. The rustler is sort of the jack of all trades master of none, it can do whatever you want for the most part and it’s easier/cheaper to work on. I’d be happy with either

[@NathanStorer-RC]

I just bought the E-Revo 2.0, and was sad to see that my existing 3S batteries do not fit (too thick), so I'm waiting on new batteries to come in from Traxxas. Just another thing for people to take into account when buying these, their existing batteries might not fit as they only take the thinner packs. It's really hard to fully appreciate the size difference on video; it's something you really have to see to appreciate. I really can't wait to get those batteries in so I can start using this beast! My Rustler VXL really couldn't handle my back yard as it's a bit too bumpy, and the chassis sits too low. I'm not planning on doing any jumping, so I'm hoping the E-Revo will hold up well.

[@outsourcedrc]

Whats funny is that I just made a video showing how to change the chassis of the Rustler so it can use the same batteries as the E Revo.

[@NathanStorer-RC]

@@outsourcedrc I saw that one too :) My issue is that my batteries are too thick and stubby (6500Mah 3S). Same ones I use for my Hoss. I also just watched the video where you put the limiting straps on your E-Revo; glad I saw that one! I just picked up the aluminum brace, and some 90mm limiting straps. Hopefully all will be in soon, and I'll be ready to rip!

Thanks for the honest opinion. I've been mulling over getting a Arrma Kraton 6S or the E Revo 2.0. Something about Traxxas has that Apple like allure to it. Its not the best and its not the worst, but you do pay more some how down the line for it vs its competitors. Think I'll get the Kraton 6S 1st and pick up a E Revo 2.0 black as a shelf queen.

[@adamalward3450]

To me, I think it all depends on your skill level in the RC world. If a person doesn't mind tinkering on things, and experimenting on different setups, I woujld certainly go with the erevo. But if a person wants to go out, and buy something that is easy to work on and just bash around then I would go with the rustler.

Fabuncian : Yes I would, its easy to drive, has A LOT of spare parts which is good to begin with, its easier to repair 2WD vehicles, and the car is worth its money in my opinion.

I have been considering getting an e revo. I bought a brushed ruslter 3 years ago, and that's what I've been using since, but I want more power. Atter watching this video, I dkmt really know anymore. Why would you have to replace those parts almost right after you buy it? I'm only 17, so I domt have experience with fixing cars and stuff but what i did with my ruslter was if it wasnt working properly than i would troubleshoot and try and fighter out myself what it was, and if i can fix it. Is that possible with the e revo?

[@outsourcedrc]

You can fix the E Revo your self. There are lots of videos online showing a lot of the repairs. Some of the parts on the E Revo just do not hold up right out of the box. I'm not sure why Traxxas made it like that. Most RC's do need some kind of upgrade though. None of them are perfect.

The Rustler is a really good RC for a new person to the hobby. You can fit a really big battery in the new one also. Traxxas sells a few. Just be sure you keep it storage charged. You can’t keep it at a full charge and let it sit. You will ruin the battery.

Linkage shocks also change the leverage the shock has over the suspension based off travel position. Meaning you get a softer shock and spring in the beginning and it hardens up before it bottoms out. Motorcycles have used this for decades.

Many years ago, I paid over $700 on a gen1 e-revo(still bitter about the low price of the gen2). I don't have the chassis brace or limiting straps, and i'm still running the stock servos that were in it when I bought it. Every part you claimed to have to replace, I haven't on mine. I'm running much larger proline trencher tires than stock gen1(about same size as gen2), I've gone through a few rear ring and pinion gears(the gen2's are much larger so shouldn't be an issue), I broke all the stock plastic axles, and the traxxas steel axles. I'm now running mip axles and have had no issues. I also managed to break a traxxas rear spool within 5 minutes of driving in the yard. Some of us are into the hobby because we like working on things, so the complexity of the e-revo over the rustler is a win for the e-revo to me. I bought a trx-4 crawler kit just to build, built it in a morning, have barely played with it, and am saving to buy a sport kit to assemble. I work on full size cars both as a job and hobby, so tinkering with much smaller scale things at a fraction of the cost is enjoyable for me. When the big car breaks at the track, it's hundreds or thousands of dollars. When the rc breaks, its usually less than fifty dollars. Also you should see dude perfects videos of them jumping an e-revo, theirs seemed to have held up fine in stock form on massive jumps.

[@outsourcedrc]

Your V1 E Revo sounds a lot like mine. I'm still running stock sevos on it. Dude Perfect do break their E Revos. If you watch, you can see that sometimes they do things like break A Arms when they land. You can see the wheels dangling. They edit the videos to look awesome, not to be reality.

[@cam872k3]

@@outsourcedrc I personally haven't done any huge jumps. Even when I do jumps like in your video, I crank up the springs for more ride height to try to get more cushion before it bottoms out. I broke an a-arm shortly after buying mine, but it was because I hit a curb at an angle where the arm contacted the curb directly, I replaced the arms with rpm ones. I'm glad you did this video, as I am considering getting a gen2 revo, or a rustler 4x4. I want both, but the boss is in charge of the money, and she won't let me buy both at once. I tried telling her that it would be hers, but she wasn't buying that.

[@outsourcedrc]

@@cam872k3 You may want to consider the new Traxxas Maxx. I love mine.

[@cheyennemaggard8899]

Thanks ☺️

[@rotz357]

I got the stampede 4x4 and the e revo. Got the revo brand new for 500. Id take the revo by far over the stampede. Revo has upgraded axles, has a nice hex design for the wheels, they wont ever circle out like several of my stampede wheels did. Revo can take 3s lipos alot better than the stampede. Revo is bigger and bigger is definitely more fun. Especially that tire size for off roading and snow. So more ground clearance if you stiff up your shocks

[@kibaarchangel4563]

Haha yeah, I live in an apartment complex, so I think I'll be getting the Rustler, but I plan to start with the Rustler VXL.

[@pritpalsira]

I didnt know Stephen "wonderboy" Thompson was into RC's :-). Love your work.

[@adambahnsen4577]

I have the 2.0 and my wife has the rustler 4x4. Theyre both great rigs. Shes only broken an axle carrier and ive only broken the spoiler mount. Theyre both great fun but, my choice is the 2.0 every time. I love the size and the power. But, i did just pick up a used 4x4 slash that im gonna put the stock 2.0 power system into... I might create a new favorite, lol

[@joellofquist2537]

Adam Bahnsen I just did that with my slash 4x4 it’s plenty fast on 3s with a 17 tooth pinion for bashing can’t imagine it on 6s.... their are some supporting mods you weld need to consider looking into at that much power diffs and center drive shaft and universal axles motor I’d say a aluminum motor mount ... but it is a straight drop in you would just need to relocate the radio box to the front the vxl3s system just can’t take the heat from the gearing is like to use it hit 200F in ten minutes on the 17tooth 32p

[@tylersatrum3297]

Ok so I am thinking about getting an rc car, but I am kind of new to it. I am between the erevo and the rustler. I am leaning toward the erevo, but really don’t want to be fixing things all the time. I really like the features on the erevo though! Any advice on which I should purchase? I’ve heard the erevo is pretty durable with the brace and limiting straps.

[@RadioactiveGTA]

E Revo 2.0 ❤️🥰

[@kantanna435]

The big differences I see are how much money you want to spend and what size you prefer. Other than that I’d say both of em are worth it

[@rc3151]

How much yaw can you get on those things? Is it possible to do a misty/rodeo(180 flip) sort of thing?

[@outsourcedrc]

i dont know if the Rustler will do it, but the E Revo doesnt like to , but the Maxx and the Slash will do them in reverse. If you have not seen it, go look at my Driftomaniacs backflip challenge video. i do a cool flip/spin combo at the end. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eH2xppKXbJt4epY

[@melissaharron5647]

Put a zip tie around where the front of the body hooks up that way it dont fly off simple

[@talonvaughn6175]

I have a 4x4 vxl rustler and stampede. And some 2wd vxls. Been wanting a bigger truck. I'd like a Summit but they don't seem fast. The newish Maxx seems super expensive to fix. Im thinking about a e Revo. Or maybe a Jato.

[@outsourcedrc]

The Maxx hasnt been expensive for me. Its held up really well. The E Revo, while I love it, Can be a money pit at first.

[@talonvaughn6175]

@@outsourcedrc I actually bought an X MAXX. Other than the tires ripping apart its amazingm

[@outsourcedrc]

@@talonvaughn6175 I'm going to have to make a video teaching people how not to tear their tires up it seems.

[@Bluntburnatr888]

After watching endless videos I just purchaced a e revo vxl. I don't think I can sleep until it reaches my hand damn. Wanted the Xmaxx but I remembered that I needed a cellphone lol.

[@Nikofa92]

Hey i have a Hoss 4x4 vxl and im kindda thinking a e-revo 2.0 vs Hoss 4x4 vxl :) would be awesome

[@outsourcedrc]

That would probably be a good video. I like the E Revo more than the Hoss.

[@YY15UPC]

The price difference in the uk is huge. Rustler is about £450 ($603) and the erevo is about £670 ($897)

[@RcOffroad9513]

Those are cool cars... for ease of use, working on, and durability... get a $500 race buggy and bash the crap out of it! I have a mbx7r eco, and a losi 3.o nitro, I race them, they are both amazing in durability and performance! Traxxas? I like the slash. Great video!

[@wallaguest1]

such a nice video, i like the VXL ;)

Thanks!

New sub. Seeing what car would be a better deal for me to buy. My brother has the Slash 4x4 vxl and trying to find a car to get to have fun driving! Thanks for the review!

[@outsourcedrc]

I want a slash. The Rustler 4x4 Is pretty equal to the Slash 4x4 VXL on paper.

[@labrawailer]

Nice video, why the rustler makes a noise like clogging when running, mine does it too I thought it was not normal, I think it did not sound like that when it was new, im from México

[@EXTREMERC416]

Its the slipper clutch i think and the motor noise

[@therccelebrityspeedfresh5393]

I still have my Erevo 2.0 vxl and a traxxas ez-peak dual charger as well. I drove my Erevo a lot and I love it

[@lastmanoftomorrow2840]

SPEED FRESH 5 Is it a good idea to jump them like he did in the video I just race my erevo and kill the comp evertime even someone with erevo still can kill em It not jus speed it also control a lot of ppl don’t think about tweeting the steering

Love my rustler, never have had any issues yet

[@mr.boombastic8612]

Realy I had to but traxxas steel cvd's and gtr shocks

[@ShrpShootr2792]

THEMAN 2805 i just upgraded to some big bore shocks, they didnt break. And I probably will never upgrade the axels because the stock ones take a beating and there cheap to fix
