Caster Fusion F8T-FK Pro Truggy Purchase

Been lurking around a lot. Wanted an eTruggy.

Saw Caster driver Rick Jenkins driving them on Youtube. He does well with it so decided to give it a shot.

Looked at the current crop of them.. Finally decided on the Caster PRO one because of the balanced battery design.

Still working on the build, but there are some challenges. Will let you all know how it ends up.

has an small issue with an part (front chassis brace) ) which caster is more than willing to fix.

Truggy's front end is very beefy. Can fit 2 5200mah 30C hardcase packs in the trays.

DONE....

Well... IT WAS GREAT.

The Truggy drove 10 times better than my eRevo. I was able to do 5+ laps without crashing.

Already got a buddy who has an F8T in his future...
