That's true, but ground shipping from CA to FL is slow as heck. Even if Tower sits on an order 2 days longer, I'd still get it at the same time or sooner than AMain.

Nice. You should go pick up from the store to save yourself on shipping costs. Well then you have to worry about your own fuel costs- just matters if you have another reason to go up there i suppose.

Horizon Hobby has them listed for 89.00 due late December.I wonder if the motormount will fit the Neu motors.The battery tray looks very much like the losi but it has the radiobox connected to it.It looks like 1 piece.The picture shows a Associated brushless motor.It actualy shows the conversion as a option for the SC8 on the Associated website

That $ doesn't sound too bad actually, but I would still opt for mike's mount and battery tray.

I wonder if someone has a 8ight and a rc8 and would buy the 2 conversion kits and use the same components to see which kit is better made. Anyone qualify for this?
