.AJ. Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Pretty much the same as what I paid. So how many you got now, thought you bought some for your Tekno? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydoddy69 Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Yeah I got 6 all in now we'll when these come I will have sadly that won't be much in the way of runtime but it's a start lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeb Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 You know what I haven't been on here much for a few months. Then I log in and yet again and there's something I will buy for a daft price even though I don't need it.

PixelJunkie Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Picked up 4 of these in preparation but I'm also hoping my lipos for the x Maxx fit aswell if not I'll have to run a mix of 6s and 8s for a while https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/172586821717 Max battery length is 141mm according to Chris Higa from Losi hope that helps [emoji1303] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noj Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Far too small.....A dremmel will be used to maximise pack length..... Having a black version, grey just is too much like the Northern skies.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PixelJunkie Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Cheers fella don't suppose you got the width aswell ? No sorry not got width but not sure that will be as much of an issue as the length. I was looking at the Turnigy graphene 6000mah 4s but won't look like they will fit at 160mm and yes the don't look much room to make any mods!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PixelJunkie Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Still on the fence about whether to get one or not now the battery thing is concerning me plus already got a petrol DBXL decisions decisions!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk The battery size isn't a great problem just means instead of cheaping out on lipos your have to spend a little more is all. Which in all honesty isn't really a bad thing. I don't have a petrol 1/5th scale nowhere to run one where I live which is why this appeals so much. If i had a petrol dbxl then I doubt I'd be getting one of these to be honest so I can see why you'd be in 2 minds 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noj Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Move esc to tray 1, dremmel tray 2, big packs squeeze in, bash time sorted OR, run big ass 6s packs in parallel for max runtime 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 That was part of the problem for me with one of these, the urge to just keep the trigger squeezed in and then slowly come to a halt, much before you're ready to end the day. The temptation is still there, I'll wait to hear some real world reviews though with regards to what run times people get and how quick they are. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mond Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 There's so much potential space there to add in bigger trays. On the conversion, trays are a nightmare due to the drive line placement and huge spur gear. If I didn't already have a conversion of the DBXL, I'd seriously contemplate this.
