Default RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

Its the D8 kit.  Its almost done I just need to put the pinion on and tie down the electronics.  I elected not to run mechanical brakes but may try so in the future for the heck of it.

Unfortunately the motor and ESC are too far apart.  Its a QBase and the motor leads go right onto the ESC and not off of wires like the mamba max pro.  I think I will swap the ESC with the mmax pro in my savage XS since the motor wires on the SCT 3800 motor are too long anyways.  It looks like the swap will be ideal for both trucks.

I'll post pictures when its done.  I need to buy a body and underprotection for it yet.  The nitro bodies are cut too much and don't look right.
