Its been done, and its very competitive and effective. Only problem is its at 299 mm's. Max legal width for 4x4 SC is 296.

Myself and another guy ran them on 2s with RevTech 4800kv 4 pole motors and Tekin RX8's for nearly 6-8 months and they worked great.

I was thinking of just leaving it in Buggy trim, not the SC conversion.

has anyone found limitations to running an 11.1V vs 22,2v? I know SOME escs like the Even # for lipo and I wanted to know if I was going to cook anything if I did decide to try something smaller (my traxxas VXL BL System comes to mind.)

I would presume something 8th scale ESC and using a smaller motor would be better than trying to run a larger motor with a smaller ESC?

In all reality I would probably go all 8th scale electronics, and just lessen the battery. Its just hard to swallow the cost of a good competitive 8th scale setup. (looking at SP or HW for options).
