I thought it would be nice to put these pics on, as I have had allot of people at the track asking me about what I'm using. It seem to work very well..

Castle creation Mamba Monster ESC Version 3 (newest) FYI---used double sided foam tape (use 2-3 layers for added cushion) and ran small zip ties though ESC for extra insurance. Off/On switch stopped working and had to replace with new one (or just solder the wires together).

Losi conversion kit

Neu 1512 2d 2550kv, FYI RED Lock tight is a must do, for the 3mm screws. And if your up to doit drill and tap for 4mm bolts, I have done this and like it much more than the 3mm.

zippy 4s 5000mah H 20-30c Lipo, FYI put 1/4" of foam in front of battery and put Velcro on bottom of battery and then also battery tray, have seen friend with a broken battery box because using just the Velcro straps the battery will still slide around.

goo around the case halves and were the wires come out. And another nice thing to do for 1/8th is put a piece of thick foam under the ESC and then use zip ties.... some guys are also putting foam inside under the board because the internal UBEC is right on the bottom and WILL start to fall apart over time do to hard landings. This is all for the MMM

As one of those people that asks a lot of questions at the track. Thank you for posting this information! It's all of the stuff that you can't find in a manual.

Is that condom looking thing on the rear drive shaft a Losi part?
