Another XT8 09Spec Brushless Conversion

[kalbien]

Welcome.

firtsly got to welcome you here. Nice conversion :) I am running same truggy with tekin on 5s. I understood you had 2008 spec xt8 before. Therefore good and bad news to you

2009 is better to drive, jumps just smoothly, runs light and agile, you will love it's performance and less weigth.
however it comes with a price and that is reliability, I've been broking stuff since I got it, ackerman/rearhubs and driveshafts keep coming out despite locktite I am using to hold screws in place.

well xt8 is not a tank anymore, both in agility and reliability, but I guess it's still worth upgrade and if you won't give it complete hell, it will serve you well
