So who's going to be the winning bidder, someone here in the states? Ebay auction ends at 03:00 ish in the morning.

I figure I will wait for the U.S ones. I dont think it will be long, ofna's forum says may and they are already listed on nitrohouse. Plus I plan on running the tekin system and they haven't shipped yet.

$465.00 shipped is about what it will be when it hits the states.

ultimatehobbies has these in stock for $399.99 shipped in the USA.

Here is a pic of what someone did with there Hyper9E US version to get the ESC on the chassis.



considering the speedpassion ESC is significantly larger than the MMM or Tekin RX8, should be easy to get those on the chassis no problem and still use the stock servo mounting locatins.

Just ordered one from A-main, although they just went out of stock. Very nice design, I think. I'm a little nervous though, order was in Friday AM, they are reporting shipped, but nothing from the tracking number with USPS. Well, if there's a tracking number, hopefully it's already boxed up...

I got to see one of these today in SoCal at Revelation. I think its a beautiful buggy, and I am a Losi guy. It's a really clean and simple set-up with very few screws and bolts. The shocks were super beefy and the funny part was the guy was running MMM with a 2650 on 3S and it was faster than me. Awesome buggy.....I might have to get one of these eventually.

gearing on 3S looks fine with the 2650 and keeps the RPMs at a nice reasonable level too. With the improvement in C rated batteries, they should be able to handle the amp draws and give you a nice light setup. Maybe do some of those SMC 9000s in a 3S configuration, wonder how they would do. Loads of runtime, but nice and lightweight.

dimensions I believe should fit, C rating appears to be about 252Amps Continous, should be plenty.

energy in pack should be:

9Ah * 11.1V = 99.9W more than a 4S 5000mah pack or even a 5S 5000mah pack

hmm!

Looks like a Tekin system would fit nicely on the chassis. Might even be able to stand the servo up and fix the nasty looking linkage angle.

That Hyper 9e is lookin real tempting. I just may pick one up for the winter season this year. Might be a good platform to try to build an ultralight indoor 1/8 car.
