i have a losi 8 converted to electric, running a £50 heli outrunner, mamba mosnster on 6 cell lipo. it is not stupid quick, about the same as a nitro 1/8 on the strait, slightly better pickup out of the corners and much easier to drive than my IC losi 8. i think it could be a really good class, alright mine wouldnt be the best setup, but it is quick, fun, easy to drive and not expensive, cost of batteries is probably biggest thing, but my two 3 cell 4.5 Ah packs cost £35 each and seem to be fine, has run for over 30 mins on local track too, you wouldnt do that with 4 cell
