I charged up my two 3S 5000 mah Hyperion G3s and went out to test this 8th scale drive train I have. The slipper is locked (as tight as I can get it without breaking it) and the MMM punch control set at 0. I was curious to find out how many standing back flips I could get from the Hyperions.

I still don't know how many standing back flips can be done with those Hyperions. I stopped at 100. Yes! 100 consecutive standing back flips! Or attempts I should say, they were not all beautiful to watch

Most of them had the truck land on the nose, or wing, or the front of the body, or sending the truck cart wheeling. But what is important here is that every of those 100 standing back flips were done the same way. On the extremely high bite surface of the new sidewalks in front of my house, going to full throttle from a stand still.

I lost body clips, the front body posts are grinded off, the rear wing broke and my F650 body is absolutely done for. So what's the verdict on the 8th scale drive train?

Drum roll.....

Everything looks fine! The CVD shafts, the drive cups, the center dogbones, it all held up to this grueling testing I did today. I'm very happy.
