Default Very nice Xray 808 ebuggy with tekin rx8-1700 Hitec 5955TG

I have a 2010 Xray converted e-buggy which is ready to race with many upgrades. In my opinion, the 808E has too much weight on the rear wheels which is why I decided to convert the 2010 nitro car.

The car was bought in late Dec 2010, ran for a few of races as a nitro car, then I bought the 2011 and converted this car to electric. It has made 3 races in electric form. I have only been racing 1/8 electric at big races, since I am more interested in nitro.

I am an engineer by trade so I chose the conversion parts carefully.
The conversion consists of an RC monster center diff mount and servo mount. I will include the battery monster tray as well, however through testing and adjustability I chose the Losi 2.0 tray which is what is installed on the car. So, two battery trays

The car also has a Tekin RX8 – 1700kV system which I bought new for the conversion. The servo is a Hitec 5955TG.
Included are 2 – Sky lipos 4400 which have been flawless. They make 10 mins runs, and they are a bit lighter than many other 4S lipos giving the car better weight balance.

Upgrades to the car:
• First off the drivetrain has been changed to the 2011 pinions/ XT8 (XT9 in the future)bulkheads. The center driveshafts are kyosho mp9 swingshafts which are similar to what will also be on the 2012 XB9. This are modifications which anyone who has been racing Xray a while know are “bombproof”.
• The rear of the xray has been known to have limited droop. The rear shocks have been modified with Kyosho mp9 TKI2 shafts to allow maximum droop.
• The car has adjustable hinge pins which use the inserts.
• Aluminum option 12 degree caster blocks which are worth $100 new
• Associated receiver box
• Aluminum rear brace reinforced by carbon fiber.



Spare parts include:
• An extra set of front and rear shocks
• Numerous set of shock springs
• Numerous sets of shock pistons
• The original 10 degree caster blocks
• complete set of essentric bushings for the hing pins



Asking $550 shipped for the whole package shipped to the U.S.

The car will not be sold with a body. Body in pictures is not incuded.

PM me if interested.

Thanks,
