I love the Lehner - their motors rock, but the power on 3S with the added weight of the extended chassis seems to be making it work real hard.

If I went down to 2S I don't think i would be fast enough for me. I don' need a 50mph buggy, but I do like speeds ~40-45 for the top end, 30-35 just doesn't give me the same WOW factor. ;)

I was considering sticking with the 3S and going down to a 1506 2Y (2760kv), but the difference between that and the Hacker is so minimal it's not worth the money.

Only going to lay out the money if I go all the way for HV and it'll make a big difference.

(RE: the M18T Pro - it's only an indoor fun toy as they are just way to light to bash around outdoors - but I low kv feiago motor in it and geared for about 20 and it lasts for ever just blasting around the house. I think X-RAY is the greatest thing since swiss cheese - I keep lurking on their forums for when they are going to release a 1/10 EP 4WD buggy and I will definitely be right up there in line.)
