anybody else reading these rumors?

MASSIVE motor and 8S esc
 
Hell yeah! Thats prolly what will finally let me pull the trigger on a big rig.
 
It was only a matter of time. You know it was bound to happen. I know in the plane market there are already 100cc equivalent motors. That would be crazy seeing one of those streaking across a field.....silently. I bet it will be in the $500 price range
 
Saw the kit at the iHobby show. The motor was HUGE and the install kit seemed well built and clean. The guy said it will run about $6-700 for the complete kit plus batteries. The acceleration is insane. 0-50 in like 2 second but top speed was only a little over 50.
 
Oh yeah those are gonna have to be some bad ass packs.
 
I was kinda thinking that about the batteries too Lloyd. I mean my 4x4 Slash with a stock VLX can swell up a 30c 3s pack if I am running hard. Can you imagine the *&^%$#% amp draw that thing has to have to push a 35lb rig around? Now it would be damn sexy though.....and you know someone is going to try and stuff one in T-maxx....lol
