Hey, thanks. It is a Hacker B50 8L (3019kv) motor. Very solid, in my opinion not quite worth the money ($180) but I already had the MM esc. I would place it somewhere halfway between a Feiago and a LMT/Neu. Strong power, but you can feel the pull much more when you use a LMT.

Still a lot of tweaking to do........ but that's just part of the fun.

Looks good! The crt.5 is a great truggy to convert, you will love it.

Its funny how much different my crt.5 looks than others. With the ext. chassis, 1/10 2.2 rims+ tires, full size servo and larger wing+ body its a completely different truggy. I really need to post up a thread of my own, just waiting for the new lipo to arrive (TrueRc 4s 4.2Ah custom pack).

Bye

Definitely post a new thread on it. =) Let us know how the TrueRC lipo pack does. Does it have the same C ratings as the 6400 or 8000 TrueRC packs? Or was it built completely custom to fit your battery tray on the CRT.5? How much did it cost to make if you don't mind me asking?

I'll post up a thread when I have time, just starting school again and have some summer work to catch up on! The pack is a 15c cont. 20c burst. It should hold up fine, if it doesn't Dan @TrueRc has some 20c cont. cells if I need to upgrade. It is just a custom pack by that they usually sell them in a 1p format, I am getting 2p (4200Ah). The cells are only 102mm long and 35mm wide(as opposed to 135+mm long and 45mm wide) so they should fit much better than a standard lipo size pack, though it will be 50-60mm high because it is a 4s pack. Also you have PM about the price of the pack...
