  1. Thanks for taking the time to film and upload. Very much appreciated. ?
  2. You will like the EB48.4, Its a great car and very competitive out of the box.
  3. I'm not sure about the later batches but mine are probably the most punchy batteries I have used to date, and that's compared to quite a few other high end race packs. I did once have one of the cells in one of the packs go down to less than 2v during a race though. Luckily I manged to revive it and charge it back up, the iffy cell still takes 7500mah (same as the other 3) when charging, which is a bonus. I have also done quite a few 18-20 minute finals using the batteries since then as well so it appears no lasting damage was done.
  4. I have had a pair of 7.5 2s hardcase graphenes since they came out. They are immensely powerful (even compared to other top race packs) and have retained their capacity well after quite a few cycles. But there is a but, mine regularly go out of balance, like WAY out of balance. After a couple of cycles the cells can be as much as .5v out of whack. So be sure to check and balance them regularly and you should be fine.
  5. Have you adjusted the steering trim on the radio? This will allow you to adjust the center point for the steering when moving the horn is too much. Once you have set the correct center point using the trim then you need to check that you end point adjustments are correct, this is so that you get full steering left and right but not so much that it strains/damages the servo,.
  6. Move your steering trim to the left, assuming everything else is equal both sides.
  7. Just roll it through a muddy puddle for effect.
  8. Now its time to go and get it dirty.
  9. You can normally get a few choice aluminium/carbon parts but as Si Coe said but most buggy's don't need many if any upgrades.
  10. The difference between any SCT and an 8th electric buggy is huge on the track, the buggy's absolutely trounce the trucks in speed, handling and jumping. This also translates to bashing if you like your RC to handle well. SCT's are better in other areas though such as if you like your RC's to look more scale.
  11. 8th electric buggy's are much better in my opinion, but then again, opinions are like arse holes in the fact that everybody has one.
