Cmon I still see you guys having problems with burning up ecms and frying $300 brushless motors you cant say electrics dont have their problems also, lets be honest. I plan on doing a conversion on one of my trucks and have been reading alot on this forum for about 2 weeks. Ive see all of the problems you guys are still having I just dont want to put down the cash and have any issues. You must realize nitro is proven and has been around a long time for rc's. If your going to bash it makes me want to ask that person if they drive a 1:1 gasoline or deisel powered vehicle and if so their a hypocrite for not driving a hybrid or electric car. Yes I know electrics are the future and nitros are on their way out. But until then nitros are still on top untill the brushless mills start winning more races.
expect that 66 mph to be beaten by a box stock e-revo brushless edition when they hit the shelf. throw a 6s pack in there and maybe a few extra teeth on the pinion and bye-bye 66mph record.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...


Silent...But Deadly
