R/C Tech Forums - Team Associated RC8Be Thread

I'll be charging at 20amps. Waiting patiently on the drivers stand while my buddy has to unplug his slow charger to plug in his laptop to repro his esc. If you have deans you can use my spare leads to charge 2 of your batteries while my other 4 are already plugged in. :lol: :D :lol: :D

The only thing I'll be using my laptop for is to add a little boost to pull you down the straight! But hey, you can always gear up to keep up.

If your desperate enough you could easy pay for a RC8BE for 3 payments of $133.33 at Tower Hobbies, no credit check. That would get you the roller anyway.

2050kv Tekin RX8
Futaba 4pl
Hitec 79xx servo
4s 65C 5200 Thunder Power
Carbon chassie plate and towers
Grid RC Motor Mount

Uupps should be a 5985mg servo, as I have 5 of them new in box.. Any thoughts about this servo?

Any backdraws using the carbon chassie? Oem fit?

That servo should do a pretty good job for ya and the good news is if it fails you have 4 more to replace it with! :lol:

Don't know much about the carbon chassis.
