I recall having a discussion about the performance value of a center diff as opposed to the drawback in heat when used in a 1/5 scale electric vehicle.

I've got one as well. 8S/2280 is definitely overkill. I think you'd be more than impressed with a 1717 (newer version from the X01), MMM 6S and larger diameter HPI Baja wheels/tires. Grab a pair...

(The ones in the vids are running CC 2028/XL2's with upgraded alum mount, braces and knuckles)

Smaller? Yeah sure.. but worth a comparison on a 1/5 scale track.
