Hi,

I would like to buy an e-buggy early next year and I have been told the eight-e is one of the best, therefore I am starting to harvest preliminary infos.

Just 3 quick shots to begin :

1 ) Which are the fundamental hopups or upgrades considered a must to have ?

2 ) Is 4s the perfect battery for her or do you suggest another type ?

3 ) Which is in you expert & owner opinion the best feature you like most and the worst issue she has ?


Thanks a lot in advance

1) The only hop up I recommend is the 8IGHT-E motor heatsink. LOSB9325 (http://www.losi.com/Products/Features.aspx?ProdId=LOSB9325)

2) If you are running on an medium to large outdoor track, 4S is the best IMO. On tight indoor tracks 3S are very popular. This is tracks like OCRC here in California. A larger indoor track like CRCRC in Ohio a 4S is suitable.

3)Everything is great. :-)
