bl-coversion kit for baja 5b ?

[nitrostarter]

With or without Lipo's?

I'd go for a Neu 2215 2Y and a Schultz 40.160, or Hydra 240HV. That will setup you back $900 right there.... Plus 4 good 5s lipos to run in a 10s1p or 10s2p setup.

Lutach will have a nice 12s esc available soon that may be cheaper in price. You might also be able to get by with a Pheonix HV110 esc with PiStix adaptor.
