New Project M8 TM buggy

I got this M8 TM buggy from mister Germanese himself, with the intention to make it a A123 runner. I got my motor and ESC today and I'm still seeking a proper motor mount. Waiting for RCM reply on a mount. ESC will be a Schulze 18.97KW and a Plettenberg MAXXimum.

Damnit man!!!!! I wish I would have jumped on that deal. But I didn't wanna hear it from the wife.

And I'm sure yours has found out yet cause your still able to type.

I just deal with the pain like a real man. Just my voice will be a bit smaller as my heuvos have turned into scrambled eggs.

Don't worry man. My older one will go on sale soon, along with a Lehner.

I call dibs on the MAXXimum. It will fit just right in my TC5!!

LOL, coolbeans man. I'll hold the Pletty for you.

I'm thinking that I have found all the misc adapters to make the buggy brushless, which drilling new holes for a motor mount.

Hey can you give me the link to that "bad mofo blah blah" small hacker motor we was looking at again ?
C40 or something,... the one with a short can that is nice and powerfull for Drag and other devious things.

here you go. http://aero-model.com/search.aspx?q=c40

Got my motor mount stuff in yesterday. Now I need to start drilling some holes....

Romano....Romano......Romano... What in the hell is that sticker from? The one that says "Orange Box"USA I know damn well you didn't buy anything from them. Or did you? Shame on you!!! Even their stickers look like they wouldn't work as advertised

The orange stuff was for the motorplates, which were on clearance for 5 bucks.

Nice Nice.

Hey the B40 doesnt come with a normal 10th scale shaft ?

Dunno about the B40. All I know it's listed as 3mm. Just stick with the c40 man.

B40 only a 500 can .....
C40 do you have any of them so i can see the can size ?

I have one of the c40 in my 1/12. They are regular size 540 motors. But if you take the heatsinks away, they are essentially the B40 motors.

Made some progress today. Waiting on tires and a body to come in.

Purdy !

I need to swap in some missing screws, esc/rx holder and then ready for electronics.

Is it lighter now same weight with the chunk of metal ?

I would think the weight is the same, as when I first got it. Just the gas tank came off, servo mount cut, nitro mount came off and the light weight tekno motor mount and battery tray went it. I'm waiting for that ACEpow 4s pack to run it.

Yeah waiting on that and 3 Cells also.
They approved the order last week, now its this dum shipping time...

We need something nerdy like that thing from Enterprise "Beam Me up" WAHAHAHAHAHA !!!

Almost finished. Runs pretty well in it's current state.
