impulse 31 or Revolt 30?


       Remove this ad - become a site supporter!
I have been looking for a vee for a while. Anyone have any pros or cons on these boats? I like the revolt, because it looks fast on 4s and i can run my 4s packs from my 8th scale buggy!

I also like the impulse 31. It says you can use 6s in it. I dont know if the stock 80amp esc can take 6s for very long.

If anyone has any experience with either boat feel free to chime in!

Re: impulse 31 or Revolt 30?

They're both designed as 4s boats. If you want to get one before the fall, your only options are the old discontinued impulse (4s only ESC), or the revolt. The new impulse isn't due out for a while.

Maybe i will have to wait . Not going to buy the old impulse, when a new one is coming out this fall.

Anyone have the revolt?

I have both...the Revolt is a better handeling boat and faster out of the box.

I'm looking at the Revolt as my fun boat, too. Looks pretty quick out of the box and seems to handle pretty decently from the videos I've seen. A little light in the front end, but that can be tuned.
