1. Chassis
E-Revo & BL E-Revo
Stock E-revo uses a monocoque type molded chassis with integrated battery
compartments, greatly increasing the overall strength and rigidity of the truck. The
downside is that you are rather limited on the type and size of batteries that you can use.
7 cell side by side nimh packs fit fine, but you are restricted to 8000mah 2s, or 5000mah
3s lipo packs. In theory this sounds fine, but in reality if you are using a powerful BL
motor and esc setup, you are forced into buying pricey high spec packs made from
Enerland cells; you may not get such good results from over spec’d cheap Chinese cells
that perform well with stock electronics or lower powered BL systems. Although the
chassis is made from plastic so far there it has proven itself to be a quite robust design,
thanks largely to the clever and rather beautiful skid plate that runs the full length of the
chassis’ underside, tying it together with the bulks and skids. One potential weak area
that has become apparent is the rear portion of the chassis that links to the bulkheads is
prone to excessive flex if you jump the truck or bash hard. There is a fairly simple fix
for this though & requires minimal modification; a spare suspension tie-rod can be
bolted to the base of the wing mount & then bolted to a small plate attached over the
rear shock-tower, thus stiffening up the chassis greatly. Up-top, the esc and radio are
mounted on the battery compartments, a clever idea since there is plenty of room this
way, but locating the esc in the correct place is critical as the battery leads may not
reach if they are a little short. The BL Erevo has its MMM esc mounted in the best place
to ensure the battery wires will reach- there are dual input connectors for running a pair
of lipos in series ( no extra harness required ordinarily ). It is also worth noting that the
holes in the battery compartments for the battery wires to exit may not line up perfectly
with the battery leads, where they exit the lipo/ nimh packs, so a little light modification
may be required.
"Loading the manual" means you need to wait until the file loads and becomes available for online reading. Some manuals are very large, and the time they take to appear depends on your internet speed.
Summary
wires from the esc to the motor around (outer two ideally, leaving the centre wire alone). You will need to use the same size pinion on both motors, and ensure the mesh is set correctly- use a piece of paper between the spur and pinion as you mesh them together, to prevent them binding too tightly. ...
packs vary, see below: EREVO BATTERY COMPARTMENT MEASUREMENTS A123 cells have a very high energy density like Lipo cells, but are inherently safer and 99% indestructible, so do not have to be used with an LVC (low voltage cut-off) device, and can be charged much quicker given the correct equipment i...
17. Chargers and balancers Its important to choose a good battery charger that is suitable for charging your type of batteries. Do not go cheap, as you will inevitably want to upgrade to a better & faster charger in a short space of time. Ideally, you will buy a charger that can handle both lith...
