i NEVER go easy on it! the first time i drove it i pulled the throttle all the way back and it flipped over and landed on its roof.

mopar1994 08.17.2009 11:32 PM

Hello,
Im new on this forum, and I have some questions:
Now I have revo 3.3 nitro, and Im thinking about brushless conversion.
What I must buy?
Sorry for bad english, but Im from Slovenia(small country in Europe)

Simon, Welcome aboard.

There are a couple different ways to convert. You can get the RC-Monster motor mount and build trays and such to hold your batteries. Or you get get a complete Tekno conversion kits that covers all your needs.

Then you have to decide whether you want mechanical brakes or want to use engine brakes. If you want to use engine brakes, you can lock the Revo tranny in 2nd gear, or swap out the tranny to a 3905 Emaxx tranny and use that motor mount as well.

There are multiple ways of going about it.

mopar: For custom length dogbones that are BEEFY and $20 each, check http://www.rcalloys.com/ They can hook you up. Not sure on the cups tho.

Drive cups ? for what type?

custom length drive shafts, I can handle that for you unless you have a welder, I just cut mine and added stainless tube and welded them
