My G2R is sold and Savage is hopefully gone soon so i was looking for a replacement basher to play around with.


The brushless baja is fun but my son likes to drive that and the 2wd can be a bit of a handful.


I saw an almost brand new XBE on RCuniverse from a local guy. After a chat he was interested in a trade for a scaler I had so a few hours later I now have an almost new XBE!

Thats my old XBE. I bought that new, doesn't look like anything has been done to it since I owned it other than the mud guards, chassis brace and front bumper. Youve got yourself a perfect, near new XBE. I might have ran 3-4 full sets of batts. through it. If you want to know anything about it just pm me.

It has the 7075RC front and rear hubs - don't see the need for the transmission upgrade.

Working with someone for a Centre Diff conversion for it. :)

Art1K is old school, from RC monster. He's been around the block a few times when it comes to RC stuff.

Welcome to the land of XBE dude! I'm curious as to your thoughts of this ride as opposed to the Baja. Lotta uppity types over at RCM didn't want to mess with one because it's a Redcat, but whatevers..

Mods look nice and clean. I've got my reservations about a center diff, else I'd have asked you-know-who to work on one for me. I just think "diff'n out" in such a large vehicle is going to produce some serious heat issues. In particular when combined with high torque of brushless motors.
