1/8 DM-1 Spec E....on road for now...HMMMM!!

[alexchen86]

Well seeing the upcoming plans of the Tamiya XV-01 and to a big disappointment that it's belt driven and 1/10 I think I'll be content with my 1/10 DF-03Ra for now.

After selling my CC-01 LR3 and some other stuff on RCC I freed up enough cash for a new Ofna DM-1 Spec E. I'll run it stock parking lot basher for now...and eventually have plans on a true 1/8 buggy based rally conversion.

My Slash 4x4 PE with custom modded suspension still handles and drifts like a short course rig...I'm trying out this cantilever front end layout on the DM-1 to see how it performs stock with a MMM 2200kv combo with a 7954SH.

Plans down the line is to convert it to a true 1/8 rally beast that will definitely be cheaper than HPI's upcoming WR8 Flux.

Onto the sexy unboxing!







Any tips on where I can find a sweet Spec A or Spec B rally body that will fit a 12.76" wheelbase??

Also do I need a CC BEC off the MMM to power the 7954SH?
