Agreed.

I'm so getting one to compliment my nitro. :)

Rumor is it's going to be saddle 2S, which honestly I like. Solves the problem of the weight balance with the brick 4S's or 6S's.

I'm 100% sure it is going to be two 2s batteries. I race with Billy and have talked to him about the new e-buggy.

He said some 3d renderings should be available in the next few weeks.

heavyjeffd 05-28-2011 02:08 AM

Sweet.

Tell Billy I said to hurry the hell up. :D

Chad Millikan 05-28-2011 07:46 AM

One of the guys from XRC magazine did his own chop shop to an AE buggy to make it saddle pack. It makes more sense to me, to make it that way. Can't wait for this thing. Gunna be bad ass

There's a thread about it. RC-Monster has a conversion kit and the stock body seems to be fine.

jkirkwood 06-08-2011 06:34 AM

Part number should be 600004 for the kit.

zixxer 06-08-2011 06:59 AM

wished we could get an eta on the ebuggy ...i love my conversion but man this would make some decisions alot easier if i knew this kit was coming pretty soon ...at least it looks like it retains front and rear end and shocks and driveline parts ...which is a plus ....
