Hey FBE, what voltage you plan on running, What packs ETC ?

Curious to the layout of the drivetrain for 4 BL motors ??


I retired from RC, now life is all about guns and long range shooting.

I was actually just at the hobby store and was looking at the 5B on the counter to see what parts I could possibly use off it. Unfortunatley, I didn't look at the brakes at all. I did kinda snoop around the rear diff to see if one could use those in a 4WD application - but unless you were to build a bulkhead for it, it can't be mounted upside down. Steering components looked like a possiblity though.

Edit:: BTW, HOLY S#*$($! "Beast" is not an appropriate noun to use for what your looking at doing......


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

Thank you guys for the input and enthusiasm. I will probably end up using this brake set or these with some modded aluminum hubs and axle carriers.

I am not sure if I want to use a123s or lipos. I want to keep it at around 6s.
I will be using an E-maxx aluminum flm tranny case and gmaxx single speed conversion with a set of ultramaxxed Gen III metal gears. And yes an upgrade to the diffs is a must.
