Traxxas 1/16 E-Revo VXL | One Year Review

Hey everyone, in this video we are giving all of our thoughts on the Traxxas 1/16 E-Revo VXL. We’ve had this car for over a year now, so we’ll be sharing our pros and cons. We also will go over some upgrades that we’ve done to make the MERV a great car!
Throughout the year, we’ve taken the MERV out to skateparks, short course tracks, and baseball fields. It definitely is a very fun and versatile RC. Below you will find all the parts used on the 1/16 E-Revo along with its upgrades with links.

Looking forward to the telemetry video.
Erevo brushed vs arma groms. I think that would be a great comparison video based on size and maybe price

[@WraggyTheGamer]

when i had mine back in 2013 - 2015 RPM made metal drive shifts, i remember becuase i spent around £500 putting all metal swing arms the full 9 yards becuase i used to brake it all the time, and when i put all metal everything in, it made it so much easier in the bends & it felt to planted with the extra weight, dam i wish i never sold it :(

[@noquarterschavez5415]

Good video..Thanks for your time..I have both the Mini & 2.0 ..Summer is here going to try get out to enjoy my cars

[@redbanditracing]

Awesome, great RC’s!

[@Demon_RCcrazy]

Great review

[@marcgallant5270]

Center diff is the best upgrade, way more controllable. Also HR axle carriers are a must. HR bulkhead solves a lot of pinion issues but I didn't think of the aluminum skid plates, that's a simpler fix :)

[@redbanditracing]

Aluminum skid plates are a lot cheaper also.

[@marcgallant5270]

@@redbanditracing GPM skid plates?

[@crawlers_anonymous]

Seems like there’s small issues, still a nice 1/16 model

[@bossplays5529]

I just got a wheelie bar and for my merv today and I now can’t fit my rear aluminum skid off and I’m worried now I’ll strip my rear diff over time so I’ll just take it off after every use I won’t plug a 3s in unless I have both upgraded skid plates on but 2s this thing is pretty good so I’ll run it on that

[@carsandfunnys5750]

I do love my merv it’s one of my go to when I don’t wanna load up a bunch of shit but recently I can’t lie I’ve been grabbing my arrma typhon 3 s hope the new bandit will remedy that lol

[@redbanditracing]
