i traded for a revo a while back and didn't like it..it had the 2.5r...i traded for another revo ..it was a roller and i ended up putting a picco .26 in it..it changed my attitude towards revos after that..now i got another through trade..lol.. and it has extended chassis and foc and an os.18tm..i swapped my .26 to that and the stability is unbelievable..anyway..lol..traxxas engines are crap to me..i had a t-maxx and it was so hard to tune..traded it..came across another cheap one for my son..the engine became crap..yes i know how to tune..been into nitro for several years now.. that's the only engines i really had issues with.

i have tuned a 2.5 and they are a PITA the 2.5r was better for me and the 3.3 has been an absolute breeze,the TM was set it and done no messing with it at all.
bought a TZ but never got to run it, the shaft was wrong so far the 3.3 has been out performing them all.
have you tried the ext. chassis and arms?or the center diff?
when set up it is awesome

The engine causes problems, they break axles, and they go lean when turning to the left, that's what happens at my track weekly.

I race with a guy who is second in the Texas state RC-PRO series, Traxxas is in Texas..., that's what I see and I pit with him. He is running 23mm hexes. He is looking to swapping tanks and his engine has been back to Traxxas for replacement once. These are the facts as I know them. If I push him in a qual he will break a axle, he has broken 3 so far.
I run the stock tank and axles, drive shafts, wheels on my LST. The Revo needs to replace all of these.

He mentioned getting a HellFire tank and RDL 8mm axles like the LST.

didnt break an axle with the others though,yeah ive been hearing about tank issues for awhile was gonna go with the MBX5 tank but the CRT is cheaper and holds more fuel...and you can flip the lid around on it

He's very dangerous to me now, when he gets those items straightened out I will have to improve my game, a lot.......
You can literally hear a stock 3.3 go lean on a hard left.........
