Rc8b conversion - 08.31.2009, 08:51 PM

I just recently finished my rc8t conversion and love it.

Iam waiting on a rc8b to arrive now. Iam going to convert it to electric but need some opinions on my motor selection.

Should I go with Tekin RX8 1550 truggy or RX8 1400 Buggy set up. I will be running 6s.

I figured I could always tame the 1550 if its too much power for the buggy. Better more than not enough......I think

What servo should I go with?

What do you guys think?

On 6s, the 1700 buggy motor would do nicely and should run cool and efficient.


1. MBX-6 T8 1900KV, RX8 ON 4S
2. MBX-5T 1520, MMM ON 5S
3. MBX-5 ONROAD CONVERSION 1515, MMM ON 5S
4. MRX-3 ON ROAD CONVERSION 1512, MMM ON 6S
5. TEN T 2650 T8, MMP ON 3S

I've run the 1700kV buggy motor on 6S and it really is excellent, though it is outside of the 28k-35k efficiency range on 6S. I'm going to run it on 5S now.

I'd run the 1400kV buggy set-up if I were you, you'll get great efficiency, and the Tekin motors are definately powerful enough.

This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.
