Slayer to E-Revo conversion - Part 2 - 10.13.2008, 06:16 PM

I wanted to enhance the handling and durability so I added an aluminum rear skid, which actually holds the rear hinge pins, and when the stock plastic one breaks you lose your hinge pins. I added the Tekno battery tray which is solid and well made. The problem is the Revo chassis wasn't designed to have a big battery riding on the side of the chassis and the supports the tray uses can bend over time, so I created a brace that really adds a lot strength to the tray.





Added a custom steering linkage and 300oz steering servo.


Rear skid has a rear portion that can be replaced when it wears out.



Here is the battery tray brace and the MC2 motor mount brace.


Here you can see the brace in detail, bolts thru the exisiting rollbar holes in the chassis. I noticed some flex in the motor area so I added the MC2 brace.



To be continued ......
