We run 15 min mains here. I've been getting about 3k mah out of my current 2x2s 5k mah packs. Had some sputtering last night during practice. Checked voltage after and one was at 7.3v and the other was 6.7!
Anyone run 15 min mains with a 4k mah or lower 4s pack?

I'll talk to Steve and see if he will start making his RC8 chassis 3mm longer like the "world's" geometry.
That would be excellent....plz update us if SNR will come out with the 3mm longer chassis

Default Snr chassis

Ran it for one race. It was actually great. The car seamed to be on rails. However, I didn't like the mud guards sitting level with the chassis. 40 minutes on tha chassis, watch for it on eBay!!

Another huge improvement i found with our RC8B is adding the J-concepts wing and punisher cab forward body. The wing really allowed my car to carry speed into the high speed corner. The body really settled down the car in the air as well.

They are the worlds arms...If im not mistaken..they are the same as stock..except have the slot where the shocks go into shaved...and have a hole in the arm so a screw can be inserted...which holds the shock on.

If your using the B-plate aswell, you have to mod the front arms, and mod/change the inner hinge pin. You have to shave a little bit near the droop screw..and cut your existing hinges 3mm shorter, or get another hingepin (they supply a part #..forgot what it was :P I just cut mine 3mm shorter).

Otherwise..the buils went pretty smoothly..just one thing!
Is there an easy way to get the nuts off that hold the shocks on (The nut that goes inside the shock cap)>! It's such a pain lol;
