i have a question. is the e-revo's tranny 25:1? if it is, the summit's 2nd gear is 25:1.. so wouldnt it be possible to make a brushless summit as fast as the brushless e-revos floating around on youtube?
umm if u want a E-revo and speed just get an E-revo...the tires are the main reason u cant go very fast and it is far heavier..but u can go brushless for performance
yes and its waterproof so you can go mudbogging :) by the way if you get it to wet to much it will destroy the 7 cell battery pack(if you go in water in like a year it will destroy it).
Awesome video! bro, just a question, did you ever break your axles? and diffs? coz from what i've heard and red from the forums, those things breaks so fast! and do you have to be completely stopped to lock diffs? and change gear ratios? thanks!
The Summit doesnt go quite fast enough to do that kinda damage. Also, the summit is cool because it has remote locking diffs. This can be a fast truck, but if you want to get anywhere above 22mph you might damage the ese, since it has a limit of 16.6v. Also for thomaswalkerjr, the summit has a different setup, for instance, instead of 2 550 motors, it has one 750 motor, which would make it slower, but Im not quite sure about the brushless thing, you'd have to test that.
The cool thing about the summit is that the front and rear are independent suspension.. That leads to more ground clearance. All the other rock crawls I've seen are a strait front and rear axle.
NICE VIDEO! how fast does that thing do, but i was looking into the e-maxx, e-revo, or the summit which should i get, but i was thinking of the summit
buy an e-maxx its waterproof and faster then the summit, if you get it through towerhobbies the e-maxx is about 320 with discounts the summit is almost $500
If you want speed the e-Maxx or E-revo are the way to go. The Summit is a great second truck for going places the E-revo and E-Maxx will not go. I will have a comparison video of the Summit and E-Maxx soon.
Yeah the Summits are already dropping in price. I've seen them as low as $450. All they are is a Slow E-Revo. The Only good thing about the Summit is the Awesome Body and Bumpers with LED lights.
The Summit has T-Lock Diffs and 2 gears. The E-Revo doesn't. The Summit is a crawling/trail truck, the E-Revo is a racer. make your pick, but either way, traxxas wins.
Yeah TRAXXAS is the way to go. For the most part they are the best priced. They are the most reliable and durable. I currently have a Brushless Stampede and E-Revo but I also have a Crazy Brushless HPI Sprint-2 Flux. That car is Fast!
i have erevo tires on my summit should i buy summit tires or buy 2 lipos?

I tried a Summit. I ended up getting a Revo instead. They are Both about the same truck. I think the Revo is the Better investment and it's cheaper.
