Don’t think I’ll buy a k8s till they iron out a few things. I’ll buy the v2. Lol. I ran my dbxl e on 8s today. It goes! Hesitation is bad. Don’t know if it’s a safety in the ecu or a radio issue. I m going to install my px7 this week and try it again.

 

[evssv]

I'll wait for the v2?

V2 dbxl. They beefed up a bunch of stuff on the drive train, and I think it has a thicker chassis plate then the first version.

Black Friday deal on a dbxl-e $799. Canadian. I bought it for spares. Couldn’t pass up the deal.

Lol.
I had 500 worth of spares in my shopping cart at my lhs. Buying the whole thing is a no brainer.

It's a good RC but racing? Against gas you'll always lose. You'll be stopping every 5-6 minutes to change batteries when on an actual track.

Unless hes in a electric only class.. my lhs just opened up an 1/8 scale electric buggy class.

Bought this on Black Friday sale. It’s a first gen but for 799 Canadian I couldn’t resist the purchase. I’m going to take it apart and sell a few things and keep the rest for spare parts. Brand new box never opened

 

[crucialRC]

So you bought it just for spare stock parts?

So you bought it just for spare stock parts?

Yep.
If you add up
Body
Wheels
Tires
Control arms
Motor
Esc
2 diffs with pinions
Centre aluminum diff

it’s a no brainer.
Those are the parts I’d buy for spares.

I hear you if you want stock rebuild?? I usual spend the money on upgrades if something breaks so it doesn't happen again. Personal preference.
