I must admit I have my eye on an HN X1-CR FT BB 2008, daft name, but A lot of buggy for the money..

The 808 looks gorgeous though and will be as well engineered as my XB8, not sure about those shock towers though - I'm thinking the alu ones will be on the top of my wish list...

The HN is very good........BUT the Xray is a nicer thing to work on. Its typical XRAY.

The carbon towers are fine if you glue the edges, it sems there are more issues with the allu towers as they are not the thickest to keep weight down.

There should be some more 808 towers coming to market in a few months all being well ;-) ;-) ;-)

The official conversion from Losi, will retail around $80.00 plus a speedo and 1700kv motor coming soon.

I've raced electric on and off road before but there were several reasons why I wanted to retain the mechanical brakes on my 1/8th, adjustable bias, reduced load on the esc helps keep temperatures down etc. I think it would have been nice if Losi had offered the option. Still you can't please all the people all of the time as they say.:)

what sort of wattage are the motors you are using producing, guessing that as .21's are 2bhp or more you are talking 1500watt or so.

I have been running a 2.5 which is about 2100kv but everyone told me it was too slow.
I put a 1.5 turn in today to try up at blyth, its 3300kv and now a total missile.. i like ... :drool:

Too slow compared to what? :lol:

The 2.5 on 4s is fast enough to make nitros cry, the 1.5 will just make them wish they've never been born :lol::lol:

Took my new 8th electric to EPR today and gave it a few runs through out the day, was sooooo much fun to drive, much nicer over the jumps and bumps than 10th scale!

Im Sold!!!!

It did look dialled actually Paul.. better, dare I say that your tenth!! :blush:

:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Agreed!!

Hi Chaps,

Found this forum by following Northys sig link on the Caster Forum.

I have an early Fusion that Answer Pete has supplied to me through Bolton Model Mart.http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2006-...mall%20014.jpg

I'm running a Neu1512 2.5 d motor, with a Monster Max speedo and a couple of packs Pete sorted out for me at 5000 / 20. I'm running 16/44 at this time.

I am from the nitro side, starting in trucks, then truggies and recently, Buggies. On the nitro side I run a Losi8 C6 t7.

I have only run the fusion a couple of times and have yet to run a final (20mins).

Hear is a short phone clip of it going around Pendle.
