Default RE: THE DEFINITION OF TOO MUCH POWER

hi

there are pros and cons to nitro and electric. no question about that. there are some obvious advantages of electric like you can drive anywhere for instance. as for the costs i think its difficult to make those comparisons in the long run. a good quality BL motor can last for years without maintenance etc. so that is quite diffcult to compare. prices of batteries also vary a lot and depend very much on the setup you are using. electric guys usually have several sets of batteries and the charger on place so driving the whole day is not an issue at all.
as far is have seen this truck mr snuggles has moved the batteries from the rear to the front. thats what you usually have to do in brushless savages because otherwise there is too much weight in the back due to the motor, esc etc.

bye
