It does have a nice motors, but i would say that a hv esc would be a much better idea than a boat esc. Plus running 8s on a 6s rated esc is not the best idea for longevity.
I am suprised that he did not use a lower kv neu and run 2 5s packs in series. If a 6s 5000 pack can be made to work, a 10s 3000 pack will provide the same performance. Just makes more sense to me that way...
I was reading one of the baja 5b forums and Jason from maxamps is making a bl baja and he stated that any more than 6s lipo was stupid and not a good idea.... What a dumb ass. I guess that is why maxamps packs are not the best sellers in the large scale air section of the hobby...
As for FD's conversion. Why did he use a bottle cap? Honestly, I could have found something to cover the end that looked more like it belonged there... Some sort of plumbing fitting from lowes. And he should have used black silicone to seal the wires, and applied it with more care. His stuff just looks slapped together...
