Default Thinking of converting

Hi everyone,

I'm thinking of converting my Hyper 7 Black edition to electric. I've had a look around on the various forums and would lie some advice. The car is in excellent condition and the motor has only had a gallon through it and wondered what would be the going rate if i were to sell the motor and pipe? I'm using Castle Creations Mamba Max and Mamba Max Pro ESC's in my B44 and TLR 22 but saw this at Hobbyking.

Would this be ok (quick!!) with a 5S Lipo?

It's just for bashing too.

Thanks in advance

Lee

Hi Nick, thanks for the advice.

Why do you suggest 4S, would it be too much with 6S, heat issues or just undriveable?

Hi Ducati

I ran this for 2 years in both dry and wet conditions in two separate buggy's. Very reliable and great value for money. I raced against nitros and found 4s was more than enough. 5s would be mental.....

Plus this is a sensored motor.
