Nice looking chassis. You sell that wing too? Cool looking vents under the rear side.

Been dreaming of racing 1/8E outdoor for the first time this year..

I am wondering if I should get an RC8Be or find an RC8B for cheap to convert..?

I've heard both work well, but which is better for outdoor and why?

Depends on what it would cost to convert it. And you can get the Be for $359 shipped from Tower Hobbies.

Cost aside, is there an advantage to running one or the other?

Buy the Be it's already done, and buying it in parts. You'll probably spend more

I'm a little late to the party, but I don't hear anything out of the ordinary in your video. Sounds just like mine.

Is that a picture of the new chassis? http://shop.bcespeed.com/product.sc;...8&categoryId=1

Do you know if the battery tray will have to be modified prior to installation since the chassis eliminates the plastic inserts?

Also, where is the extra 3mm length added?

Thanks!
