Brushless and Lipos in a 4WD buggy

Hi

I have all brushless and lipos in my helis and planes so I want to start off this way in my buggy.

Do any of the top 4WD buggies stand out because they are easier to fit a Brushless and Lipos? That is they are more lipo and brushless ready.

It seems that the brushless ESC's are BIG so harder to find room and there are 3 (or 4) wires from motor to ESC.

Saddle pack lipos are available so no real problem with the 3+3 layout.

What about weight distribution? All current buggies are designed for SubC packs which are more than 100gm heavier for the same mAh capacity (4900).

What thoughts?

Thanks Jeff

There are people running the combination in 4wd 1/10 scale buggies, and other than adding in some weight to balance things out are realy liking there setups. If you go with the 8000mah lipos, I think those are pretty close to the weight of the standard NIMH packs.
