Thinking of selling my Yellow Bigwig (not cheap)

NulnOilTycoon · July 19, 2021

Basically I've spent way too much on the hobby and I'm trying to convince the Mrs to let me buy a new mountain bike, so I'm considering selling my re-re Bigwig, to help the cause.

It's in fantastic condition I've only run it twice up and down my tarmac drive, (half discharged the battery once). otherwise just been sat on a shelf.

It's fully loaded as follows:

MIP ball diffs
Stainless Steel Screws
Titanium steerer rods + Tamiya low friction balls + cups
MCI decals
Hobbywing Quicrun 1080 Crawler ESC
8.4V Overlander battery
Power HD B5 High Voltage Servo
Nicely painted driver
Spare body + yellow plastic parts
XT60 Connectors
Hotshot Aluminium propshaft
Standard Bigwig GT tuned motor, with spade terminal paddle connectors for neatness.
Acrylic painted tyre writing
Complete with all boxes and instructions all in very good condition
Spare set of wheels and tyres (so you can run it without ruining the tyre writing)
Vintage CRP shock collars

It currently has Futaba receiver (R314SB-E) and voltage sensor, so it's like a techno Bigwig that tells you your battery voltages, I'd prefer to leave these and all the other electrics in if possible but may be willing to remove them. I must have spent over £750 on it.

This thing is no longer in production and should drive really well for a Bigwig with the strong superfast servo (BEC set to 7.4V on the ESC so it has 20kg torque and 0.66s response) and the ball diffs giving it great turning ability and the weighty 8.4V power lets you really get it power sliding sideways through the corners and being nicely finished it would also make a very nice shelf queen. I'm not desperate to sell, just if someone really likes it and makes me an offer I can't refuse, I'd let it go.

If you're interested please feel free to drop me a private message, not interested in letting this go on the cheap.

Thanks for looking.
