3s+9L in a lightweight 1/8th buggy ????

[rootar]

link the deal i found is actually a hyper 8 roller, so thats good to here its not a porker of a buggy compared to the 808 pictured above. im not gonna bash it or anything ive got my ls10 for that and all ill do is play musical chairs with the electronics, this buggy is ONLY gonna be run on a groomed track, if i gear it for 35-37 i should top out in two places on the track which would be fine, because the whole inside of the track is very technical and twisty and my truck is hard to run consistantly in the infield. I guess i could always get it and try it and if it works it works if not i can put the chassis up till i could afford a separate 4s and xl system for it.

It's realy light your 808!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My Hyper 7 pro, without any electronic (no batterie, no motor, no esc, no servos) is 6.2lbs

I realy want to have a light buggy like that.

But i have a 1515, i don't know de weight difference between a 1515 and a 1512?

But for the li-po i've a Flightpower 5000mAh, 4s, it about the same as you 4350, 5s

You will be happy with the hyper8 ross, it is a nice buggy. Since your track is technical, give the 9l and 3s a try, it may work well for you.
