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.
I am able to get the $199 for $174 & $219 for the $249 model at tower with a coupon code. Free shipping over $99. I watched a few videos and saw that the ideal prop is 45x68. I have two SC10 4x4's that I race with other brand vehicles. I have never had a problem and have been very happy with the Traxxas products I own. I will look up the Octura M545 prop and see how it performs.

Just watched a video with that prop on the Revolt. WOW!!!! Huge difference.
Thanks again
