Sweet, punch the throttle hard enough and you'll be able to backflip the beast.

I was tempted by the Xerun setup but I thought if the £70 sensored setup went up in smoke then forking out the extra over the non-sensored ezrun wasn't worth the risk.

 yes i understand were your coming from stue .  but i can tell you the exrun system that is in the lunch box has been to hell and back and no problems what so ever i can run multiple packs through this thing and its not even warm to the touch and thats the honest truth .  here some pics of the lunch i had to fitt a new wheelie bar wheels as the one that was fitted kinda disintergrated with the exstreme abuse its been getting latley . sorry just not had the time to get some video yet ...  ...   ...  ...  ...

i must say it seems more stable with this wheelie bar having the two wheels rather than one , .  O0

Yeah, I had the wheely bar for the Savage, that's a bit of a handful to get to work successfully. The HPI demo video is a crock of lies. :D

 hi stu , yes a lot of these promo videos a pure lies . just to sell there products , this wheelie bar worked very well but , again did not last long ,i have made another but not sure how long it will last the lunch box is looking pretty beat up now . think i need to purchase a lexan body for it .  the good news is the gears and drive train are holding up great  it just seems to be the wheelie bar and body thats getting the abuse . on another note , i won a bargain on ebay ,yes another r/c lol.  a Erevo looks in good condition  i think its had very little use came with a brand new set of wheels and tiers also a graupner charger and two 7 cell lrp stick packs . its just the brushed version but that will soon change .lol.. here it is ..  ..   ..  ..  ..  ..  ..  ..  ..  ..  ..

well guys sorry its been a while been so busy with other projects but to day got some footage of the box . now with a 4000k,v motor it was left over from another project so now its home is the box ,  this is a great location for bashing inside the grounds of a old castle but unfortanetly it was hoodlem day full of kidds drunk the blight of our society , so was still restricted in runnig the box but i did my best . she is holding up great so far apart from the hard body , just about finished so looking for a lexan remake .. . enjoy . guys ..   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhoH4z62dAs

hi joe i must admit it is a blast to drive , although i know its well overpowerd but i guess thats part of its fun ,  it has been very reliable apart from small issues with the stock body posts .body and wheelie bar  i fabricated new steel body posts , and a new rear to the wheelie bar , i have a lexan remake body on order so that should stand a bit of bashing lol..  thanks for your comment joe ..

A couple of speed runs, and then see how many backflips you can pull off back-to-back :biggrin:

It's a beast, and by the sound of it you doing a Savage conversion too? Awesome mate!

hi stu i will try my best with the back flips .lol.. . the  speed runs should be no problem as long as i can keep the front end down .lol.  yes i am doing a nitro savage 21 conversion to brushles , but it still has a long way to go yet . i whanted the flux and  indeed put a order through but when the wife saw the price she hit the roof .lol. so i cancelled it . so came across a roller on the bay in pretty good condition . i think i payed £150 for it  a lot cheaper than the flux .lol.. i have started work on the motor mount and locked the tranny in second gear thanks to rc monster . but it still has a way to go .. thanks for your comments stu ..  O0

 hi stu  if had known that  you had a savage i would have bought it from you i have been whanting to convert one for some time  , no problem with the update stu  but it may take a little while as i have my  erevo to update first i just hate it with those titan motors way slow .  you are thinking the same as me with the 1/8 scale brushles systems  the 150amp combo is what i have orderd , the first one is for the revo , the next one will be for the savage ,  i dont think you can beat them for the money ..  thanks stu

They do sound good. In the states/Aus they sell them as "Turnigy" and they seem happy with them.

I'm thinking I migt cheat and just grab the kershaw designs conversion kit, or the speed passion one...

hi stu yes all reports have been good with these systems , you will find all the imformation you need at rc monster , they have done exstensive testing on these systems ..  here .... http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/showthread.php?p=268513 ...  yes i agree the quick route is kershaw for mounting hard wear .. or again rc monster has all the parts you need  but it can get expensive with shipping from the states , you will also need to lock your tranny in second if you have not done this already .. the reason for locking is so you have reverse and also because the tranny shiffiting gear under brushles power tends to strip the gears , but once locked eliminates this problem , this shows you how ...  http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13587       on the batterie boxes i was just going to go with the savage flux type they are not expensive and i think will make a neat job of it , thanks stu ..
