Dang how much money did you sell it for?

Hondabeefast · June 27, 2007, 10:46:14 AM

my old t-maxx it was the biggest POS ever

SkremenGSXR · June 27, 2007, 07:09:13 PM

Does anyone have a piston, rod and sleeve for a Revo 3.3

snowmanzz13 · June 27, 2007, 07:14:37 PM

lol, what did you do?

SkremenGSXR · June 29, 2007, 06:10:24 PM

Was running it at the track and it shut off in a jump. Tried to restart it and it was locked up. I pulled the head off and saw the piston with pieces broken off of it and then pulled the piston out and the rod was split right down the middle. Traxxas said to send it in but you know they will pull the its your fault crap so I will fix it myslef or buy a Picco 26 for it.

snowmanzz13 · June 29, 2007, 06:40:10 PM

how old is the motor? traxxas is usually very good with there motors, and if it's fairly new they will usually replace it because the 3.3's are known for the bad con rods

quadracer1992 · June 29, 2007, 06:43:13 PM

Why not put the money into your quad? These things are so expensive. Its like $30 a gallon for gas. Imagine if it was like that for cars, noone would drive then.

snowmanzz13 · June 29, 2007, 06:59:12 PM

$21 a gallon jeez

quadracer1992 · June 29, 2007, 07:03:41 PM

Close enough. So?
