I have never tied or seen one of these ME16s in real life, but if they are anything like the Matrix Buggy... The damn things will be bullet proof. I have whipped my cen buggy relentlessly and it just keeps coming back for more. I originally bought my first cen cuz it was cheap in comparison to others with the same features, but I kept my cen cuz it was just a damn tough buggy.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...


Silent...But Deadly

looking at it closer that looks like it could be fun. Imagine a 1/16th with a Mamba max!

Great idea using that motor, but it would only work if you use true four wheel drive.
One motor per corner, 4 ESCs and 12S LiPo. Should get well over 12 mph. Good luck and please post photos of it a. leaving the ground; and b. leaving Earth orbit.

I was only going to do 2wd, for greater stability and weight distribution. I have a feeling that if I go with 4 of these things that I may need to step up to 16s. I wonder if maxamps could make me a pair of 8s 10000 packs. That way I could move them around the chassis till I get the balance correct.

I am not sure if I have a camera that has good enough resolution to show the cen leaving orbit, maybe if I paint the body yellow it will show up.
