my 8ight-e convert open to sugestion...

[hootie7159]

I got the losi conversion on my 8ight and if you have the older V1 MMM with the battery wires and motor wires soldered to the board you will have zero clearance issues...however if you have the bullets soldered onto the board the MMM bullets will touch the body....but...you can solder the wires onto the bullets as some on this forum have already done b/c the extra male bullet on the other end of the wires raises the height of the bullet connector area and it hits the rear portion of the stock body/Jconcepts Illuzions body....Or you can just get an 8ight-e body and not have to worry about clearance issues....AND Driftbuggy means that the diff weights in the front/center/rear are 5,000/10,000/7,000...

Front/Center/Rear Damn! I read in another thread that had them listed as 7/10/5 so I just got done doing mine - front 7/10/5 rear. Not like I can just swap them either. Oh, well chalk it up to experience. Taking it out here in a while to try it out. May have to drive it backwards. The front and rear diffs didn't have any fluid in them just a little be of grease. I should see a difference even if it is backwards.


Nice pickup on your 8ight. I'm pretty new to the buggies also. I think your gonna love it. They handle great and drive a lot different. A real big difference. I got the 1515 1y in my 8ight. Using the MM and CCBEC on a 4s lipo. Had a smaller medusa in it and tried a KD 36-60-2200 and 2700 (I think) and then a Hacker c50 13l. The 1515 1y was the only one tha made me grin on 4s.

Post some pics when you get a chance and enjoy. Don't forget if your not sure if it's 7/10/5 or 5/10/7 just ask.

DickyT has a way of doing that to people doesn't he. I live about as far aways as you can get from him in the US and he still almost had me buying a crawler. I had to shake him for a while. I couldn't keep the pace up after the e-revo, the next I knew he had a couple more builds going. Good to see you taking up the slack.

Driftbuggy means:

Front - 7K
Center - 10K
Rear - 5K



Nice buggy Hoov. Looks really clean. I like the body.

I almost bought that one but opted for a truggy instead.
