Hoping I'm posting in the correct section. I thought King and Rovan were related, soo...

I've been looking for a brushless 1/5 scale. Finally found this, but I can find NOTHING about it anywhere.

Is this a clone of something? I see no videos on YouTube, has anyone seen these in action?

I have one. There ok but same issues with the hpi baja flux, short run times. Plus the esc in them can only handle 6s lipo or the 7s life included.

Satan, how long of run times do you get? What's the mAh of the battery you are using?

Never ran it enough to get a time, stock 8000

You mentioned in your previous post /\ that you have one...not HAD one.

Do you still have it?

If you still have it, can you give it a run and let me know typical run time. Is it 10 minutes? 15 minutes?

I understand that it includes an 8000mAh 7S LiFe 30C battery. Is that sufficient? Would a LiPo be better or not matter?
