You can use their 800kv 2028 also

Did you weigh the 2217? I'm wondering how it compares to the 2028 in terms of weight.

Ahahah!







She's got the space for that!
Going exclusilly on tarmac, or see a little dirt?

Keep us posted! Love that thing to the bone! 16s. Human ingenuity! eheheh

Wrap the tires with steel wire, like us do with fish line! :P Could work!

How, boy... i thought my last rc was a 5T for me... but i see the appeal calling....better not crash this into a human "cadaver", lol

Mine 58110 when pulling the RC it's very noticable he want's to fly off the motor mount! This on 7s!

S%$#% we ain't have tires for 16s, man! lol

wait a minute ! is it 1x 6s or 1+6s ? or really 16s ???

just kiding

wait and see

i can't help but think about this 12s 5t conversion : it's the best plateform to handle so much power on the ground. a monster truck is simply too high and will only wheelie and flip ... IMHO

i love how the power is displayed and of course the crowd's reaction ! very inspiring...

Sorry for the delay, had to redesign the mount again. It's just tons of torque, keeps breaking loose have the solution in the vice ready to hit start this weekend. Hang-on!

Cool, if you have a scale at hand I'd be very interested to know actual weight.

What no-load wheel-speed will you gear it for?

Motor mount almost done and it will support 2028, 2217, and 1717 motors. Lots of R&D in it.
