    I think I purchased mine towards the end of 2013. VXL version. One of my favorite little cars. Also you can run 2x 2s packs in parallel. Doubles the run time and doesn’t kill the esc. That was my main way of running it. But a single 3s is way more fun.

    When I was playing with the 1/16 Suchiyu 16101 pro car, I was laughed at by my three friends. But I told them that we can try to compare speed and jump to see who has more postures will win. After they compared with my 16101 Pro car, they dared not laugh at me anymore, because my car was faster and had more postures than their 1/10 cars... I told my friends that it doesn't matter what car they play, as long as it can bring them happiness and stress relief.. I only have 9 cars, HSP94111 pro, Kraton 4s, Outcast 4s, Senton 3s, 144010 buggy, 16101 pro, 16103 pro, Q130 pro and vorteks.. The 1/14 to 1/16 cars are what I like to play with more and are convenient to take out and can train my feel... I wish you good health, success in everything, peace and success in your career...💪Come on, brother..

    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

    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

    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 :(

    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 :)

    Got a warning from Amazon to discard my 2018 e-Revo VXL because the brakes have an extremely toxic material and the risk for lung cancer is extremely high. I'm worried, sad and angry!
