But, I think it would be better if I first start "small", like converting a Losi 8ight or something, and if I screw it up I can always buy a motor mount here on rc-monster. If I would buy a Baja, and I screwed it up I couldn't buy a motor mount somewhere, so I had a Baja with a gas motor, and I don't want that. Do you guys understand? ( My English sucks.. )

But, which tools do I need to make a motor mount? The motor mount does not have to look good, it has to be good. I know, Mikes motor mounts look awesome, but what tools do I need to make something like this:


It doesn't look good, but the guy who build this says that this motor mount is good enough for the Plettenberg motor. ( It's in a 1/5 scale car btw )



And the next question, what would be a cool car to convert to brushless? ( 1/8 scale or larger and NO Truggy ) And there has to be a motor mount for that car, so if my motor mount sucks I can buy a motor mount for the car.


I hope I will get answers on this questions!

That is one heavy duty motor mount .
