Still haven't seen any

So now hobbyists will have a choice between the E-Revo BLE and this. 2009 is going to be a good year for brushless monster trucks.

Im sure they will be plenty more brushless kits out in 2009

The Firestorm is a sidewinder ESC. I've driven a Firestorm & all I have to say is, holy crap they are quick!!

1/2 throttle & zinga it's sliding down the road on it's roof backwards!

I heard that XRay are developing a 1/8 BL buggy.

Drove a BL E Revo the other day too, that was pretty quick. We've got a few guy's with BL 1/8 stuff down here now.

It's looking very promising for race days having our own BL class.

My CRT pulls wheelies very easily on 80% punch control. Going to drag it back to 100% for racing tomorrow.

i think they are the first to advertise standing backflips, i hope theyre using the new xl drivetrain, because thats HARD on stuff, well we know they went with a dual battery setup because in its 60mph discailmer it says on 2x3s lipos.... im curoius to see some body off shots also

I hope they make it to where you can run 1 large lipo pack or run the 2 smaller 3s packs. Thats my main gripe about the e-revo.

after carefully pausing the video when the truck does a backflip on the curb I was able to see a bit and pretty sure the are using a battery set-up similar to the e-savage, meaning sideways! but it's pretty hard to see so dont shoot me if this isn't correct! lol pause it at 43sec when the truck falls back down to the curb! :O)

Yea it kind of does look like it has battery trays on the sides.

If it didn't they wouldn't have the sides completely blacked out in the pic.

Standing Backflips, that sounds like fun :sarcastic:

They get old quick, trust me.

yeah just like my 8xl on 4s lipo was to much torque for my light e-maxx! always on 2 wheels! not very good and gets boring after a while! that`s why I like higher kv a bit and smaller motors! more control and easier on the drivetrain! lol

...I cant reallly see them using ANY of the E-Sav parts...Through and through GP Savvy i think...

Sorry been away for 4 days - Yes these motors are very familiar ;)

They are CC 1515s with a different case design - You won't be disappointed... Not though that it makes them 48mm+ in diameter...
