INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the Traxxas E-Revo Brushless Edition 
electric monster truck. The E-Revo is the most advanced electric 
racing monster truck ever created. We built the E-Revo for 6-cell 
LiPo and brushless power right from the start. E-Revo’s driveline has 
been engineered to endure the horsepower and punishment that’s 
possible with today’s motor and battery technology.  E-Revo Brushless 
Edition looks factory because it is factory, complete with a separate 
motor plate for clean, low-slung single motor installation. E-Revo 
Brushless Edition includes Traxxas batteries for Ready-To-Race fun 
right out of the box—no modifications needed.
