Default Nobody makes an 1/8 E-Truggy kit?

I have been looking for an 1/8 E-Truggy kit... I Cannot find one anywhere.. I was hoping for an Associated or Losi kit but neither makes one.


Why doesnt anyone make an E-Truggy? Im not looking for one for racing.. just for a basher. (although I wouldnt mind it being race capable)

Best bet is a tekno conversion.. the hotbodies roller with a tower coupon is an outstanding value, then just get the tekno conversion kit for it. If you can get any roller tekno pretty much has a conversion for it, I run the 8ight-te 2.0 myself.. awesome.

Associated used to make an RC8TE but it was discontinued. As for why no companies make one now, it's more than likely the cost of the class. Truggy as a whole is dying in some places. They're just expensive vehicles to keep running.

Excellent quality, competitive price, dual battery setup, hard anodized 16mm shocks!! Batteries can be layed down or stood up and the differentials are helical for more strength!
