Thanks. It's pretty much the best radio out there. Up until a few months ago, this was the choice of a huge cross section of RC racers. If you look at videos or pictures of drivers' stands, you see these in the hands of many guys. There's a reason Sanwa says their products are "The choice of champions". Grin

This radio has been epic!

I've been using it with VRC Pro for a while now and I'm certainly faster with the left hand conversion. I might not have the outright pace that I managed once in a blue moon with my old radio but I'm at around 95% of that pace but with tremendous consistency.

I've found this Zen like peace while I drive and it's amazing.

Here's a report of my runs at a track on VRC Pro. My best run ever on there has been 17 laps in 5 minutes and 5.xyz seconds. (The fastest guys run 18 laps in 5 minutes and 9 seconds or so. They drive super aggressively and the game rewards this but it's not my style).

Like you can see, the runs are pretty much successive and the times are fairly consistent.

^Ha! Got you there.  I wish Bangalore had a track. Divyam, Tassem and I might be meeting in April. If we do, I'll let you know where we're meeting.

Even if it was there i'd not go there as often as it may be needed for the owners to keep it profitable. April may not be possible for me to meet up, but will surely catch up in May.

I've decided to go the electric way as well! I'll sell the Revo and get a used Slash or I'll just throw the 3.3 and get a Mamba Monster !

Welcome to the dark side. >Cheesy

It shouldn't be too hard to convert the Revo 3.3.

An e-converted Revo would be an absolute beast! I'm trying to get a used Savage from somewhere in India (roller) and want to do an e-conversion myself!

A truggy convert to a MT is better option and the latest trend ,some are converting their buggies to MT.

RC8t MT ,LOSI 8T MT and ST-1 and other truggies converted to MT by putting bigger tires  like the MT4-G3

^^ Hellfire makes a great point and I agree with him. The terrain crushing ability of MT tires with the handling of a truggy makes sense.

Hmmm.. but the MT tires would take a lot out of the handling dept. These tires have soft flexing sidewalls and act almost like an additional set of shocks. They're quite heavy too.

However if we can find MT size tires that are slightly narrow, those would be great for handling!

Having said that, I'm a sucker for large tires!! I keep imagining what the slash would look like with the savage tires Cheesy But I need a 17mm hex conversion to try that. Not to mention proper gearing.

Obviously putting MT tires to a nitro powered truggy will make the truggy under powered but if you have a electric brushless truggy it has the torque to make even MT tires look like dish plates.But the drivetrain should be designed to take such a beating otherwise you will ruin it with premature wear and may even snap the CVD.
But with truggies like RC8T/ST1 ,Losi 8t people are having a blast.

The handling won't be as good as a truggy but you can bet that its hell of lot better then a dedicated MT.

Sadly, the track at Bangalore has been out of use for a long time.

There was one store that dealt with Traxxas products but it seems to be down. You can get batteries at RC Dhamaka though. Joy Rising Hobby from Chennai can get you some good lipos as well.
