Do you have any experience with running the 4s shorty layout vs the saddle pack on the b4.1e? Is there a significant difference? If so Does it matter for your average club racer? just trying to keep things simple.
@SuperFastRc7 сағат бұрын
I have never ran it, nor have i seen anyone run the 4s setup. It depends really if you plan on running any other platforms. I run 1/10th as well and most of the time its shorty packs on those so it makes sense to me to run the saddle layout.

Just an fyi if you use the rc8t3 front body mounts they are a bit higher so you get more clearance on the shocks. and they work way better. i ended up using those couse i also like the truck bodys better. IMO its what makes it a truggy and not just a bigger buggy.

Hi Chris. Still watching your videos over and over lol.. I plan to purchase an electric conversion kit for my rc8b4.1 just for kicks and to keep me busy... Any thoughts as kit is only an ebay seller. Will nitro chasis and side guard work among other things?

Sorry i have been traveling. You would need an electric chassis, motor mounts battery tray, diff plate and servo mount rx box. Front and rear clips are identical as well as steering. Still might be more economical to buy a used ebuggy slider.
