Sorry to keep bring this up, but I had really hoped to make a 5b for my next project. Mike can you let us know where this stands? With Patrick's thread on the ICE with new software it sounds like we have a ESC now. Any info would be appreciated.
I talked with Mike about this last week, he said the conversion was mostly done accept for a few tweaks on it to make it an easy drop in. The original prototype needed the buggy to be slightly modified in order for it to work, the tweaks to the conversion will fix that. He said the price will be in the $125-$150 range. If you emailed him, you might could get one before it hits the store.
