Losi 8IGHT-E Race Roller

I don't mind that it look's the same as a lot of conversions, at least we know the layout works well already. Plus I don't know how they could make it so it doesn't look like a conversion without making it worse than a conversion, like doing what traxxas would do and give it a weird shape plastic chassis.
The motor mount is different to anything I've seen before, it looks good. Looks like it will make changing gear mesh or taking out the motor a lot easier since you just slide that center piece out without messing with L shaped allen keys.

So what if its a conversion already!!! We drive the market and we are converting. Losi is listening. All you snowmobilers* out there know exactly what I'm talking about. Now all we have to do is buy the factory...read: clean! conversion kit for less than the Novak hack up kit. Impact has it for $79 and change. Done! Now we can concentrate on how this dang KB45 is going to fit!!!

Admit it your just upset we don't have the edge on converted 8's anymore.

Speak for yourself, I still have "the edge" on everyone who buys a losi e eight (not dumb enough to spend 879 bucks that way)... Or the conversion kit (I can make my own stuff, which is more fun)...

Nice looking kit, but it is not the be all and end all of brushless electric.

I am glad the mfgs are bringing this stuff out, maxamps will make more money for advertising!
