[BIG PETE]

let me know if your serious about getting it mate i might be able to swing it a bit cheaper for ya

[remotebandit]

im interested in getting 1 mate , if possible before krissy ill even pay now

The 5T length makes it rely on a dogbone for a great deal of length which to me is a bit of an issue.

Also the need to change gearing etc

I think the XL conversion is your best bet.

[remotebandit]

you got a link for the XL conversion nexx , does it give the same length just difference balancing of the main gearbox

This might be a closer cheaper option , just worries me in their item description where they mention , these " may " have scratches and loctite marks on them ... doesnt seem too promising ... lol

i drove a flux today, ****ing stupid thing to try and keep on its wheels. extended chassis would rock

[nexxus]

lol thats half the fun of it. On loose dirt it can actually launch quite well without lifting the front end too bad.

you ordered one yet rb?

i've just agreed to do the conversion from someone.
will take some video once its running.

Be interested to see how it goes gearing wise, that's the main sticking point for me. I can get 5T shells for $125ish (clone shells)

you still got any of these in?

[jas073]

Hey RB ,did you get these yet.Looks "SICK"

[nexxus]

Still be interested to see what gearing proves reliable on this and if you need to go over 4s Lipo, especially as it seems 99% of MMM failures are on 5/6s lipo.
