Some input
Hey all. First of, you can't compare the standard e-revo to the savage. The Savage Flux is brushless, with is serious speed control and motor. If you want to compare it fairly, compare it to the E-Revo Brushless Edition.
I own the E-Revo Brushless and have used both. At this level, it is really a choice of what you are going to use it for. If you want to race, go with the E-Revo brushless. If you want just a all-around tough truck for not serious racing and fun, you could buy either. A buddy of mine owns the Savage Flux, and on a track, it will be VERY difficult to beat the Revo. It is designed for one thing...racing. However, the Savage is built very well. Like most monster trucks, it has a TON of power but is top heavy and rolls very easy.
Truthfully, unless you are a serious racer, either one will blow you away. They are both great R/C's.
Just my two Cents.
