Couldn't Resist...LSP-R on the way

[skellyo]

After a couple of days of thinking, I finally decided to pick up a LSP-R while Ultimatehobbies.com had them on special for $259.95 shipped. I'm planning to run a Mamba Max ESC, but I'm not sure what motor I should use. I'll probably want to go with a Feigao or Wanderer to keep the cost down. Anyone have any recommendations?

I'm also real close to buying a Lightning GT10 to convert to BL as well. It's killing me to see such great prices on these trucks and not have a ton of $ sitting here to drop on them.

I've found that the MM ESC and Feigao 7XL combo is hard to beat for the price. I run the same setup in an 1/8 scale buggy and a Monster GT conversion. It runs cool and there's plenty of power. The setup also carries a 4S2P 8Ah pack like it's nothing.

wait, you said lsp-r. right? 259$! then thats a good bargin its not the 1/10 scale?

Damn....I paid $450 for mine a year ago...

i paid 400 for mine a couple months ago.. I might go ahead and get another for spare parts, thats a good deal!

[squeeforever]

Sylvester, if you do, let me know. I might be interested in a couple small parts if you would be willing to sell em to me. :)

Yep, it's the 1/8th scale LSP-R truggy roller. The smaller 1/10th scale Lightning Stadium RTR is only $189.95. They have some killer deals on the HB stuff right now. I thinking of selling off one of my crawlers and buying another truck or two at the prices they're at.

Skellyo - how is their service? I am loving the prices on their site!

I can probably sell the tires to you. I plan on putting something like Badlands on mine when I get it. I'll be running primarily in a very low cut grass, so the stock tires won't do me much good.

I am still waiting for my jammin crt but think I may pick ones of these up anyway! thanks

[skellyo]

I've ordered from them about 5 times in the past with great service.

Wow, those prices are amazing. I may really need to consider picking one of those up. Those prices are just too good.

I wonder if this ultra low price means that HB is coming out with something new soon...clearing old stock...hmmm....Paid $529 for my LSP-R when they first came out...
