Pascal he said "creative". Lets see how this plays out.

Sorry couldn't resist Andy

Lol, i'm not that creative, forgot my basic electronics

Creativity would probably pay off more innovating battery and body mounting. Was thinking maybe shave down the nub on the body mount and use velcro there and around the bottom instead. Then replace the battery straps with some sort of CF brace with quick disconnect screws.

Will still take longer than nitro to pit, but should only have to pit half as much.

Or setup an electrified bridge charge it like a bumper car

Someone ran a Tekno @ Loganville the weekend before PNB with an 8000mAh lipo. Ran all 20 minutes with some to spare. Not sure of the brand of battery.

Mizchief

Maybe this one?

Not a great pack, but could hold you over unit etruggy gets big enough for it's own class

I was going to buy the et48 before pnb but they ran out of stock. Have everything besides the roller. Hoping to have one in the next month. Losing two esc's at pnb set the E truggy fund back. I bet we would have enough to run in the s.o.s series. If not it looks like the class will have a good crowd once the new mugen is released.

Ed said you could take the two orion 8000 2S and turn them it an awesome 4s. Just need deep pockets.

I just ordered the Tekno conversion for my 8ightT to run at AMS.

What is the consensus on Motor and Battery options? 2200 4s/1400 6s? Looking to throw my hat in the mix as well.

They have been running E truggy in the alabama ironman series and they only allow 4s. I have 2200 LRP motor and hobbywing xerun 150amp esc ready to go once I get my e truggy. Just going to use one of my 4s lipo's from my e buggy.

I run a Tekin RX8 with a Tekin 1550 kv motor on 5s. It runs very well. I like because it has a lot of low end grunt so I can keep tight lines and still make the jumps with no issues. I can get 16 mins. out of a 5000 mah battery.
