E-REVO BRUSHLESS • 23

BASIC TUNING ADJUSTMENTS

Maximum Alignment Limits (using stock push rod length)

E-Revo’s maximum toe and camber alignment settings can be 
limited by the ride height setting. Do not exceed the maximum 
limits or you could experience interference between suspension 
components. The ride height is controlled by where the push rod is 
installed in the lower suspension arm. First determine which of the 
following configurations you are using:

a. Stock Configuration

 – When the pushrod is in the middle 

position of the lower control arm.

b. Raised Configuration

 - When the pushrod is in the raised 

position to increase the vehicle’s ride height (innermost hole in 
lower control arm).

c. Lowered Configuration

 - When the pushrod is in the lowered  

position to decrease the vehicle’s ride height (outermost hole in  
lower control arm).

d. Long Travel Configuration

 – When the pushrod is in the middle 

position of the lower control arm with the Long Travel rockers 
installed.

Front Suspension

The following are suggested maximum settings for the front 
suspension in order to avoid interference between suspension 
components:

 

Rear Suspension

The following are suggested maximum settings for the rear 
suspension for all configurations. Toe out is not normally used on  
the rear of E-Revo.

TRANSMISSION TUNING

Adjusting the Slipper Clutch

The E-Revo is equipped with 

an adjustable Torque Control 
slipper clutch which is built 
into the large spur gear. The 
purpose of the slipper clutch 
is to regulate the amount of 
power sent to the rear wheels 
to prevent tire spin. When it slips, 
the slipper clutch makes a high-pitch, 
whining noise.  

The slipper clutch is integrated into the main spur gear on the 

transmission. The slipper clutch is adjusted using the spring-loaded 
locknut on the slipper shaft. Use the supplied universal wrench. 
To tighten or loosen the slipper nut, insert the 2.0mm hex wrench 
into the hole in the end of the slipper shaft. This locks the shaft for 
adjustments. Turn the adjustment nut clockwise to tighten (less 
slippage) and counter-clockwise to loosen (more slippage). 

WHEELS AND TIRES

Many types of aftermarket tires and wheels can be adapted for 
use on your model. Most will affect the overall width and the 
suspension geometry of the model. The offsets and dimensions 
designed into the model’s wheels are intentional; therefore, Traxxas 
cannot recommend the use of other non-Traxxas wheels with 
different specifications. The diameter of the wheels is an innovative 
design, and there is a variety of different tires available for you to 
experiment with in addition to the included tires on the model 
(listed in your parts list). Experimentation with different types of 
tires is recommended to see which ones work the best on the 
terrain where the model is run. When selecting tires, consider the 
overall diameter and the rubber compound (hard or soft). If the 
overall diameter of the tire is significantly increased, you will need 
to use a smaller pinion gear to compensate for the larger tire. Soft 
compound tires with many short spikes generally work better 
on hard, dry surfaces. In loose dirt, a tire with large spikes should 
perform better. See your parts list for accessory wheels and tires.
