I was planning on buying an 8ight-T using this program, but if people think a replacement is coming out soon I might re-think that.

I really don't think there is any connection, but what do you guys think?
I agree with the other guys! Most likely just sales. There is NO need for a new platform!

You won't notice any performance difference, but it won't break. The plastic version is pretty fragile. I broke a couple some time ago, and have been all aluminum ever since.

From a marketing stand point it seems things may be happening at Losi but it doesnt sound like anyone has spotted a Losi driver sporting new goodies.

I doubt there will be a new platform...where I race, there are plenty of sponsored drivers and I have not seen or heard of anything new.

My truggy is running an Ace 1015 on the throttle and a savox 20kg on the steering both of these use a fair bit of power. I ran my truggy for about 50mins at the last club day and only had to put 550mAh back into the 1300mAh pack!!!

Because they are nominally only 6 volts you don't require a regulator.

The are light to I think I saved about 20 to 30grams over my NiMH hump packs.

The weight difference was really noticeable in my buggy as it used to roll in the air to the RX side with the LiFe pack it flies level

If you're talking about this one I don't think it will fit. I tried a Reedy with similar dimensions and it won't fit under the "pyramid" top that losi designed for humpacks since's it's square.
