I wish I had your painting skills! I love the ET stock body to start with and you did an awesome job painting it!!!

If its the Serpent body that comes with the e-conversion, good luck. According to my intel its going to be way too short. Custom front body post will be needed for sure. It was my first pick of bodies to use. Love it,but I feared the fit or lack thereof.

14t huh... I think Ramos it running a 18t. I put a 18t on but haven't ran it yet...



Thanks for the paint compliments. I've had my fair share of practice. Before I shut down my painting business I was doing around 5 a week.



I haven't given much though to length yet... I know its not a ton wider.

My 18t with 2000kv at 65%cl came off at 140 or less. After a 1/2 hr main with battery swap it was only 145 esc at 85 or so. And yes it was a rocket down the straight. Can't wait to get it on a 150+ ft straight

I'm super impressed that you can gear for close to 48mph, run 30min and only hit 145, wow!!! You are using 4s packs? I have the same motor and I gear it for about 40mph ( 15t) and end up with close to same temps. Every time I try to bump the gearing up so goes the temps, what am I doing wrong? I have my radio set at 65%.
