I want to see you do the first one - just so I know how the FLM stuff will work for me down the road.

BTW, did you add an external BEC to the Flux? If not, what is that on top of the battery tray?


Losi 8T 1.0, Savage Flux - XL style, LST XXL, Muggy, 3.3 E-Revo Conversion and sitting outside 425hp, 831 Tq Dodge Ram Turbo Diesel. It SMOKES

He added a eagletree analyser. I also like your velcro straps - I did exactly the same after I kept losing the lipos. I think the battery doors / covers are a weak design on the flux.

I have the same thoughts - got a direct drive off dan and dont know what to do with it after I experienced the flux. The flux is jaw dropping wheelie machine - I love blinged up brushless trucks but after playing with the flux I cant see anything else coming close to it.

Yea, that would definitely be interesting on the tabletop jump
The whole turbine project cost quite a bit because actually the motor in there now is the second as the first one was too troublesome. Cumulative cost ? I'm afraid to count
