Search Youtube for Revolt M545. You'll see videos of an otherwise stock Revolt with a Octura M545 prop on 4S. This combo is plenty speed for most people. It has been suggested to replace the stock drive shaft/cable with one from offshoreelectrics.

I have 4 Traxxas vehicles myself, but I'm not loyal to any brand of anything. I take everything on a case by case basis. Right now the Revolt RxR is $185 shipped on Omnimodels and $235 with radio.
