This is just a first testrun when i try it out for the first time and check temps and all the important stuff, just so i know everything works perfect. I do this with everything after a major adjustment just to be safe.
Started as a new baja 5sc ss kit (in june 2011) that was directly built to be brushless (never had a gasoline engine mounted on it) and now a total conversion to a baja trophy truck nearly all metal now and a littlebit more heavy but who cares with a powerful system like this
Not much traction at all, the grass was loose and a littlebit moist, not the best tires for this… anyways, it was just a testvideo.

@staticxmako Thanks, but im not selling the cage. I like this rollcage and maybe i will make a nice crawler of it if i remove it, who knows… i haven’t decided yet.
@TheAutoman ill buuy the cage off you foor a good deal haha
Thanks Rod!
I like my gasrucks, but havent used them for a few years now:( I went from them to big brushless helis/electric crawlers, then i started with brushless trucks christmas 2010..bought my first brushless truck a savage flux hp, then after that a team associated sc8e and now this baja 5sc ss…
The rollcage was no problem at all to mount on this truck, and it holds up just fine great quality.I am starting to think about going back to using the 5sc body,cause it’s now around over 15kg.
Very nice Automan, I think you’ve made a good decision converting to electric. I love nitro/ gas sound but it’s a pain in the ass sometimes to tune and keep it tuned. Electric is just plug and go and since you’ve got Castle power, it’s probably vicious as hell. How was the fit of that rc4wd cage? Did you have any problems with it? Thanks-Rod
Throttle control
way to small space..
Do you have some sort of slipper clutch? It launches well without too much wheel spin. My 5b would just destroy that grass with wheel spin.
Thanks for the comment
I know it’s not much to look at this video, but i thought i put it up anyways just so you can see the truck moving, could hardly use half throttle.. it sure is a beast this motor.
Im running the castle creations 1:5 scale complete conv kit (780kv motor), and it has got tons of torque, even with the added weight of the flm kit and rollcage it still is the same beast as when it was from the beginning (baja 5c ss), just insane power and runtime of over 20min 18/56 gear.
This is an awesome truck mate, what motor you running in that beast?
