My conversion is slowly coming together:

1. <Car> XRay XB808
2. <Motor> Not sure yet. Most likely Speed Passion when it comes out. Any other suggestions?
3. <Speed controller> Not sure yet. Most likely Speed Passion or Tekin R1 Pro. Any other suggestions besides MMM?
4. <Lipo Battery> Thunderpower 4s 50000 mah.
5. <Charger> Multi-Plex LN-5014
6. <Conversion Kit> RC Monster 3-Piece Motor mount and battery box.
7. <Pinion/Spur> ??

Any help to my questions would be much appreciated

All I can say is that Neu rocks--very much worth the time and money. I have done Castle stuff and Novak as well on 1/10th's. It is nice to stop worrying about everything and just run with the Neu & MMM v3 setup. No idea on the Medusa but you always get what you pay for--done. The Losi conversion kit is quite nice. I know people love RCPD stuff but a machined delrin battery tray?

Let's see what new systems people are running. Where are the Tekin and Novak setups? I'm building my 8ight electric right now so I need more ideas. I've already settled on the MMM V3, I'm just wondering if I should run 4S or 5S and which kV motor to get. I really want a Neu motor, the real deal, not the castle, although I'll probably end up with a Castle in the end.
