It has great clearance and I also have the extended rear arms on it

Damn that's nice!! I'm also in the process of one! Just need the MMM setup, and a reliable 2.4 Radio...that's gonna be a lotta money, but I work!!

My revo conversion is just laying in the corner not being used because I drive the ST RR more often

Nice build.

Is the kyosho a lot more fun or what George?

I am in the samre boat as George, ever since I built my Losi 8T my Revo hasnt seen any run time its presently a roller

mopar1994 · 04.04.2009, 10:32 PM

today i ran it on a 2s lipo that i had sitting around and it ran good except for shredding my spur and the 5s zippy is on back order so i might go with a 4s zippy. will it go around 40mph with a 4s zippy?

There's no comparison. The Kyosho is so easy to drive and more durable which equates to more fun

If it's a True 4S, I would say 40 is very possible with the right gearing. I ran 27mph towards end of my small 2250 3s and cheapo Feigao 8 2383kv motor, car weight 8bs
What is the quality of a Zippy ?
at that price I doubt the cells are of good quality, matched well, wont last as long as others.
Thunder power is the way to go

mopar1994 · 04.05.2009, 12:46 PM

maybe i'll sell my super crawler for like $400 and buy a good battary and charger with that money. and most of the people that have been using zippys on other forums really like them
