any vids yet......that would have to be the nicest conversion I've seen .

Looks nice Chris..I hope you enjoy it!

why are you running the CC Pro BEC?

I had one around and will have 4 light sets and a HT servo... Stops a servo taking out the ESC...

I ran it without one with the stock metal gear servo and had no issues but added it when I swapped to the hitec.

cool,
I just wanted to make sure the XL could handle 8s and no external bec at the same time.
How do you like the electric brakes on the XL?
My upgraded mech brakes on my 5T will NOT lock up the 8.5 inch tires I'm running.

I already have the RCM kit, but I need that little adapter to run the CC motor, does Mike have those out yet?

Yes - It might not be on the site though. Post up in the contact Mike section.

I'm sure it will be added to the newer kits.


The brakes work well - I'm not setup to lock but to slows down very quickly... No fade an almost abs feel

Ever consider front disk brakes to compliment the esc braking?

Considered and not ruled out yet... ;)

looks like alot of fun, i cant wait to get one

Man this makes me want one.
Something about a big 1/5 size vehicle thrashing around just makes you all excited in side.

Thanks to your visit at Motorama last weekend, I just ordered my 5B SS. Next will be the RCM Conversion and XL. You are a bad influence, Chris.

Thanks for the insanity.

Very nice setup dude..! Now some vids... :)

looking good! love your paint scheme too. (:
