Traxxas E-Revo VXL 2.0 RTR 4WD Electric Monster Truck (Green)
Steering servo's are junk and same with the tires. Get better tires "proline Badlands" and better steering servo's do not get traxxas ones. Had mine for about 2 months now and that's the only issue I had so far. Traxxas customer service also gave me new tires and servo's since they failed right away. This thing is a beast and way to much fun though.

The E-Revo 2.0 is the best RTR under $700. I knew this monster was going to impress me but damn. Traxxas has really outdone themselves with this one. Im extremely hard my trucks so i break things almost daily. Of course I broke something the first day within 20 minutes of getting it but it was just a toe link that got bent $8. I have tried for the last 4 days to break something and I cannot do it. I've tried everything short of smashing into a wall at 50 mph. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a durable fast amazing vehicle

Traxxas E-Revo VXL 2.0 RTR 4WD Electric Monster Truck (Green)
This car is awesome. Well worth the wait. I had to change the servos due to the stock ones failing. None the less im glad i did. Car is amazing after a few mods. Stock tires are the worst. I prefer a bead-lok wheel & tires with a more durable & stronger compund(Pro-Line Badlands). Besides the normal Traxxas issues with all of there cars. By far my favorite.

Hope this helps.

Traxxas E-Revo VXL 2.0 RTR 4WD Electric Monster Truck (Green)
Way better built than the original e-revo. Actually seems like it’s built for the advertised power, although there’s still some typical Traxxas things keeping it from being 5 stars.

Cons:
Servos - stock setup, they fight each other. You actually need to remove the servo arm and align the servos out of the box. Something that should be done at the factory. But unfortunately common on RTR vehicles that utilize dual servos. This drastically limits the lifespan of the already weak and cheap servos they are shipped with.

ESC - common failure point after they switched to the VXL-6s from the MXL-6s (rebranded castle). Again, why change something that worked well.

Suspension - if you plan on jumping this hard, the eyelets on the shocks will pull off the shock shafts and/or the CV’s will fall out of the drive cups. Hot racing sells limiter straps to fix this problem and they’re cheap enough that this is forgivable.

Pros:

Steel axles - long gone are the plastic slider shafts that would consistently break in the past. Although the center shafts are still plastic, but provides IMO a cheap failure point in the drivetrain to prevent more expensive parts from breaking if you were to land hard on the throttle or somthing.

Center diff - no more slipper clutch, a much needed upgrade on this platform. More reliable and much more tunable. Traxxas also has a “Cush drive” system as well, which dampens torque going through your driveline.

X maxx styles diffs - Way beefier and way stronger than the original diffs that came in the old Erevo.

Tons of adjustability - the revo was originally designed to compete in “monster truck” classes when it was originally released. Hence why the chassis isnt flat like modern RC monster trucks. Diffs had to be lower than the chassis in order to compete. Because of this, this thing has tons of suspension tuning you can do from your more standard shock tuning like oils, spring rates, preload, etc. Cantilevers can be changed out to change the effectiveness of the suspension. Adjustable toe links front AND rear. Adjustable caster angles up front AND in the rear. Pillow ball suspension allows for virtually infinite camber adjustment. As far as traditional monster trucks go, you won’t get more adjustability. Although more modern monster trucks on “truggy” chassis like what ARRMA offers handle leaps and bounds better than the revo. But it’s an entirely different class IMO and unfair to compare.

Redesigned plastics and misc parts - Plastic compounds have been reworked and seem much stronger. Suspension arms are thicker than the originals. Hubs are much larger and feature larger bearings as well. Tie rods and pushrods have been changed. Tie rods are beefier and the eyelets are much larger than they used to be. Mine actually came with hardened steel pushrods, earlier 2.0’s had aluminum pushrods that would bend. So it’s nice to see they’re doing changes still. They added front and rear chassis supports, however, they are plastic and are known to snap along with the rear of the chassis. Traxxas sells a very cheap metal chassis brace that you should just order with the car if you plan on buying it.

Overall, im impressed. It seems Traxxas is finally getting out of their old ways and doing something to be competitive. The platform has been out for almost two decades now, so I won’t bore you with common problems and what not. Tons of information out there for these things and the short list of problems they do have, im willing to deal with for such a unique piece of RC history that just has a feel you can’t get with any other RC monster truck.

Traxxas E-Revo VXL 2.0 RTR 4WD Electric Monster Truck (Green)
I've had my E-Revo 2.0 for 3 years now. It's a decent truck but not great. Durability isn't great, but most issues are very easily fixable or upgradable, and thankfully most of the fixes are pretty cheap (I'll list them later). My experience with traxxas electronics is pretty negative, so I removed them from the truck and sold them before even running it (I suggest you do the same). I've run the truck with a hobbywing quicrun combo and a savox servo, which were cheaper than I sold the stock electronics for. From what others say, the stock electronics are pretty mediocre and unreliable, especially the stock servos.

Other durability issues and fixes:
-Weak pushrod and shock ball ends (the suspension is not properly limited which makes this issue a lot worse)
-Fix: there are many different fixes for this, but IMO the best is to add an extra set of shock bumpers to the inside of the shocks (same as the blue bumpers on the outside)
-Bent pushrods
-Fix: add some 7mm aluminum crafts tubes over the stock rods (this has worked well for me and was far cheaper than buying upgraded rods)
-Bent toelinks
-Fix: same as above (the total cost was on $15 for all rods)
-Worn drive cups (the rears wear out much quicker than any of the cups on my other cars, though I haven't needed to replace mine yet)
-No fix for this but you will be able to tell when they need to be replaced before it becomes too much of a problem
-Pivot balls pulling out (annoying but not really a breakage, just have to unscrew the ball from the arm and reinsert it through the carrier)
-No fix, but I'd imagine aluminum hubs would help (far too much money IMO)
-Drive shafts popping out (again annoying but not a breakage)
-Fix: don't have your pushrods in the innermost hole, at least for the rear

Aside from the durability and electronics, the E-Revo is a very fun truck. It handles entirely different from anything I've ever driven, and IMO is the most fun to drive (all of my friends who have driven it agree). Once the durability fixes/upgrades are put into place, the E-Revo becomes a very tough truck. The driveline is very durable (aside from the cups wearing out over time). However considering the issues it has out of the box, the price tag of $600 is too high. I bought mine back in 2018 for $460 (thanks to good timing with a massive ebay coupon and the old MSRP of $550), plus I sold the stock electronics for $220 and used some I already had (~$170). Was it worth that ~$410? Absolutely! Would I pay $600? Hard pass. If the durability/electronics issues weren't present, then $600 would be fine. The suspension limiting issue is flat out embarrassing, not sure how they didn't find this issue during R&D. You can drive the E-Revo without ever crashing it or jumping it higher than 4 feet, but you'd still pull out a shock end. In short, there are far better options for a similar price tag (e.g. something from ARRMA's or Corally's 6s lineups). That said, I still love mine, and prefer it over my monster-truggy.

This a great and fun truck so far no carnage, the only upgrades I did was the aluminum rear chassis brace and 85mm limit straps from Hot Racing for the rear suspension, overall the truck is worth it.

Traxxas E-Revo VXL 2.0 RTR 4WD Electric Monster Truck (Green)
I've had mine for about eight months.
I'm enjoying it, it's really fun to use. But I've already broken many pieces...
I replaced the rear chassis bracket with the Traxxas aluminum. The tire ripped and I ended up buying the Talon again (I think next time I'm going to Badlands). I carbon-reinforced the rear suspension parts and stopped cracking. Several pieces broke because of fatigue ... I think the most certain thing would be to use with 4s but after using it in 6S you can not go back. Now the gears of the plastic servos have broken ... I bought here in Ammain the metal gear kit of the own Traxxas because the servants of the Savox are very expensive.

Anyway, it's my first 1/10, I like it but I do not know if those breaks are normal (I put it a lot in skate park where most breaks happen). Also, it's too big that I end up using less than my 1/16 e-revo (which goes in my backpack everywhere)! Anyway, this big boy gives me a job, scares the kids, people hate him in the parks but he guarantees hours of fun, rss

Traxxas E-Revo VXL 2.0 RTR 4WD Electric Monster Truck (Green)
This is a fantastic truck, BUT you need to give the suspension a once-over before you drive it to make sure the shocks and push rod ends don't get over extended. It was a pain to own at first but once I got the suspension kinks figured out it very quickly became one of my top 5 favorites for bashing! Xmaxx is without a doubt a better truck than this one(xmaxx needs fewer upgrades to be ultra reliable), but the Erevo 2.0 is not far behind!

Traxxas E-Revo VXL 2.0 RTR 4WD Electric Monster Truck (Green)
Saw it on shelf in the Houston store and I had to get it.
Great truck,mean stance,and it’s really big compared to other 1/10 scale RCs.
One complaint only and that’s the battery compartment. I run dual 3s 55c 5000mAh Floureon lipos in mine, in other words it’s a tight fit. Traxxas designed these compartments for their lipos for a reason and that’s to get you to buy them....DONT BUY TRAXXAS LIPOS!!!!!
I owned one 3s Traxxas lipo for my slash and that thing puffed up and caught on fire.Burned my chassis(that now looks very cool) and destroyed my esc.When I contacted them they said that they would make me pay for a new one, I thought ok it’s 50% off so why not. They said it would cost $50 to replace even though it was $70 something to begin with, last time I checked $50 is not half of $70.
All in all this truck is great, had some balanced tire problems but I don’t plan on keeping these talons for long anyway(getting Badlands).
No problems with the servos or esc so far.

I love this thing. The new diffs are bulletproof.Yes new circuit board on the 2075 servos fail. And Esc is hit miss if it will fail. Traxxas customer services are doing great job keeping up with replacement for customers. I personally have Xmaxx 8s power on mine for over a month and drive line is Awesome. Btw im part of the Revo 2.0 owners group on Facebook. So i have seen mostly everything that has happened with the this Model.

BEST RC I OWN! (Turn down/off TSM on grass/high traction surfaces to save servos, they’re actually not unreliable!) It’s had a bad track record from its release but hear me out, its BULLETPROOF in its newer version. all it takes is $20 In hop ups and a drop of glue. Newer releases got new pushrods that I haven’t broken one of in over a year of skate park bashing and speed runs on ROCKY terrain. People have issues with the rear shocks and suspension, get aluminum brace and 85mm hot racing limiting straps ($20), bulletproof fix haven’t had any issues whatsoever and I beat the breaks off this thing. Tires are up to you, I’ve blown quite a few stock ones but I really like them for air control, just need to reglue them more often. Truck can take ANYTHING you throw at it and has never failed mid run in I’d say 60+ runs. If you check your pillow balls and glue them into your arms when you notice them start to strip there’s literally no weak points on this truck. By far my favorite RC I own
, sucks it’s reputation was ruined by the early versions. Stock esc stock servos from last June, like I said don’t use TSM in grass or other high strain surfaces for a servo

Very disappointing that you spend $800 and you get a unit that has two wheels that wobble. Very poor gluing job. where is the quality control? One would expect that with that kind of price there would be far better QC.

THIS THING IS A BEAST just note that the servos work amazingly until they either break or get misaligned but I just went with the Traxxas higher speed and torque one and it is amazing. the removable wheelie bar that you can buy separately is also just brilliant I love it so much.

Very durable as well. I flew off of a gravel pile went about 15 feet in the air, landed on its top but everything was just fine. I would highly recommend this for those who do quite a bit of bashing with their rc cars
