As promised here are the pictures of my new Ve8.

Its sans esc (mmp) which as soon as they are back in stock I will be ordering one. Kokam 6s 4000 lipo (should give me enough run time to do a 20 min main), shown with Medusa 1600 kv motor for test fit (will be getting Tekin T8 1400kv). ACE steering servo.

The body was painted by my brother, it came out pretty darn good for his first attempt I think.
