Keep up the great work bro! Would have been nice to have a forum poster such as yourself a few years ago, we probably would have managed our money spent on the MERVs a little better
Mini e revo parts trial#
And now I see you passing down the good gouge to those new to the merv, especially with your wisdom from trial and error with your MERVs. Everyone asking the same questions we once asked. Everyone having the same issues with their brand new MERVs that we had. One thing I've noticed just reading a few pages back. But hose who own both say that the mini retains many of the great driving characteristics and functionality of its larger counter part.
Mini e revo parts how to#
Having never driven an 8iht, I don't know how to compare. The losi 8ight is basically a decent mini version of the 8ight. Do ou know where that video was posted? A link to it? I like the portability, the speeds and they are a lot of fun, as long as the grass is short enough Glad to see you on the threads again and back into minis. Other than that I am not real interested in the Savage Flux XS as I already have a modded Merv and the XS has quite a few issues since its release. Although that buggy is smaller than the Losi. Wanted to get more info from him after he has ran it some. Skora got one of the 1/16 Turnigy buggies from Hobbyking for like $70. I am just not sure I am ready to drop $250 or so on the Mini 8ight. As far as just bashing the Merv is probably better suited to handle multiple terrains. I think it would be awesome at the dirt track with little to no upgrades and it would handle the same lipos as my 1/16 Traxxas. I really like the Losi Mini 8ight as well. I have been looking at other RCs lately debating whether to get something else. Haven't gone through any motors or tires as well. Both have the same Castle MMP big block setups Ive been running for quite a while. Buying, selling and trading but currently only have the 1/16 Merv and 1/16 Rally. I've done the same, gone through many RCs over the past couple of years. Did do some RC repairs for someone locally recent, made some extra money. Just have been real busy with other stuff. I have been on the forums but haven't ran my RCs in a few months. Maybe the mini 8ight will give the merv a run? Just checking the mini boards, seeing what's the best out there. I probably had the most fun with the merv, so gonna go back to the mini sizes. I've gone through at least 15 rc's trying to figure out what I like most. Lastly, I will do my best to just keep this next rc from here out. I don't need 60mph out of the box, something traxxas loves to push with all their models! It's a scam to get us to buy the better hop ups and drive it faster to break more and buy more ha ha ha I'm soo guilty of that! Probably gonna try out this Mini-8ight by losi. I'm losing big money on the sale, but I'm getting rid of it all to go back to 1/14 or 1/16. I still have a brand new esc and a few lipos.
It was wicked fast, but I missed the ease of a 4wd. I've sold all my traxxas stuff, except for one last bit on eBay. How's the merv doing? She bullet proof, gone through a few motors, and tires by now I suspect! I haven't had my merv in over a year.
also, are they the same spur? anyone know? If I change out for the Mini-Summit rocker arms, will I need different shock springs? 40wt in frt. I'd like to know if I can put the tires and wheels on the MERV, and if I do, what pinion gear I'd need to use. maybe it's not below-freezing proof.LOLĪlso, neighbor just got the 1/16 Summit VXL for his kid, and one for him too. I held the truck up, and ran the motor at varying throttles, then let it run for a couple minutes at between 1/4 and 1/2 throttle, so I could build a little heat in the motor, it's been sitting now for a whole day so I'm going to go try it out, charger just beeped!!! Wish me luck!Īnyone have any ideas? Should I send it back, it's supposed to be waterproof. Later after we came home, I tried it inside, seemed to cog really bad, even when rolling already, but it was working again. didn't mess with it too much because I didn't want to fry something. Later after a battery charge, we went to use it again, steering works but when you went to give it throttle, just stuttering back and forth, like the little cogging on takeoff, but that's all it would do. The truck worked fine untill we turned it off. We had used it out in the cold, there's a little snow too, just enough to make traction non-existent. The ESC/Motor were acting funny last time we went to use the truck though. Can anyone tell me what RPM parts should be on my list? Nothing is broken as of right now. I have the MERV, we got one for my son when they first came out.
