Should I get a .5?
 
I was thinking about getting a CRT .5, how do you guys like yours? Are they just as good for bashing as racing?

I have seen a lot of nice conversions out there and I would like to do one myself. What motor would you guys recommend? I have a mm so I don't need a new spedo. How long on average would a 8000mah lipo last just bashin around?

I was gonna dump all my money into my E-maxx but I found a great deal on a .5. How much money does it take to make a .5 electric?

Sorry for all the questions, I just need some opinions.:lol: Thanks!

did you take a look at the hyper mini st?

Its kinda new so thats why its not on the forums.

No I don't like 1/18 scale.

traxxasbasher13 12.10.2008 11:23 AM

Oh my bad its not a 1/18. I don't like its lay out.

I love the crt.5 as you can see mine in my avatar.....it is an amazing car on the track....mine uses an mm with 9l feigao geared 46/14 geared for about 40 mph it will go much faster if needed....I usually run mine on 3s maxamps 5000mah and it seems to run forever....as I stated it always amazes the other guys at the track with its maneuverability and acceleration....don't hesitate... its an awesome little car IMHO

Its pretty much based on the crt .5 but with afew upgrades.

People were saying the exhaust was always prone to dmg so they covered it. Gotta bigger shocks, PBS and something else i forgot.

Hey! im not selling you the thing....its just the latest.

all good in the hood tho! xD

Get yourself a Medusa motor for it if your gonna get one. for the money they are hands down the best

traxxasbasher13 12.10.2008 10:28 PM

I already have a vxl motor so I think I'm just gonna use that.

magman 12.10.2008 10:31 PM

I have one as well, in my avatar is the pic. I love mine. I run it now on 2s...3s after the holidays on a Medusa 3300kv and mm esc.

BrianG 12.10.2008 10:34 PM
