I've seen them go that high before, it's just the landing without breaking thing. Like....A revo motor mount. I think that almost has to be the weakest part on the truck from what I've seen.

The reason the motor mount breaks is because from a big drop and landing on the lid, the motor hits the ground pretty hard. Spend $20 on a wing setup and you'll pretty much cure the problem.

Heh, I don't have a revo, but my friend does, and it breaks. I don't think it has since he has put on a wing though.

O ya its gonna be insane. Even if i have to sacrifice a chassis to do it i will because i have a warrenty on my chassis.

End of the day I'll go for something that high, as long as there's somewhere soft to land. Pavement is ouchy....Think of all the times you've fallen off your bike as a kid...Your truck goes through that every time you jump it. Does it hurt when you fell in grass? I don't think that much. Does it hurt when you hit the pavement? Hell yeah, it does.

So yeah, I'd rather stay out of your way when you're jumping RCDad, you have a nasty habit of the *aim it up and floor it* disease from what I've seen.

But yeah, if anyone has that crazy of a jump bring it on. BTW, is there a hobby shop within walking distance? Or will someone have savvy parts..lol

Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
