Default Brushless Serpent

Has anyone ever done this conversion? It just suddenly popped into my head and I think it would be sweet to see how fast one of these things would go with a Neu/plettenberg/lehner bl motor and a MGM/Castle/Schulze ESC on 4s-6s lipo. It would be a great competitor for the W.F.R.C.C.C.

I would love to see a conversion! I've never seen one before. I've been tempted to try one myself, but it's kinda pricey.

I'd much rather that in nitro. I saw the Worlds/Nats that was held in Greece and they sounded like F1's coming off the front straight. Sounds like a good project, go for it.

Yah, they are insanely impressive as nitro cars. It would just be cool to see how an electric version would do.

Ive seen alot of vids of these cars racing and they handle the corners so good and high speeds. I can just imagine one topping 100mph.

yeah they are awesome. Probably my favorite class to watch race. There is a huge track nearby where they race 1/8 and 1/5. The 1/5 scale look the coolest, but the 1/8 are the most impressive on the track.
