Brushless Losi 8ight

Damn that thing looks awesome. As for the clutch, off the line, I wouldn't suggest dropping full throttle. The motor will hit relatively high RPM's well before the clutch will full engage and it will glaze/wear the clutch shoes quite quickly.

Thanks DAF,
The pics were a bit darker than I'd like so it's a little hard to see.
I worked on mounting the batts on both sides of the buggy but the buggy is so compact that its a bit too hard to accomodate that setup without major modifications.

I'm running the RTR setup so its only got two aluminum clutch shoes. I have to hammer the throttle to get this thing going but its quite a ride. I ordered a new flywheel and set of aluminum clutch shoes so I can run 4 shoes instead of two. 4 shoes should help engage faster and lessen the wear.

I also removed the front brakes and installed a micro server for the rear brakes to cut down on the weight.

I also picked up the sweet looking JConcepts HD body and wing :017:
