Well after 4 years of " no r/c" activity i just grab a nice d8t converted...and drop some nice stuff in it!!!
d8t with tekno convertion
Rx8 gen2(nothing else)
2200kv castle motor
Bluebird servo(434 oz at .14)brushless/blabla(nice servo)
Upgraded aluminium c hub/caster
And smc 6500 mah 70c 4s lipo(the zippy os for test)
And dx3s rx (for now)
Buy it used and the front diff last le one pack..(no oil on it and grease) the previous owner was a noob...i rebuilt it,done this to the rear and center one and now its a blast to drive!!4 years ago the lipo was max 25-30c and on 4 cell they was weak(to low amp vs voltage) now with 70-90c my god.. even on 4s the truck is crazy!!
Looks good! I'm just getting around to bashing my mugen MB5T converted. Still having some issues breaking from arms, and gearing it correctly, but it's a blast! D8T's always seem to have a good reputation!
For now the only thing that ive broke is a cvd(from myself not the bad maintenance from previous owner) . snaped loll to much powa.other then that.. the driving is flawless,,
