Hey guys i am a new member to this forum. I have a monster GT that i want to convert into electric and i have a few questions, First off do i have to cut the metal chassis or is there an way i could mount my e-maxx tranny to something? also i was wondering were could i get a long front drive shaft so i could have four wheel drive?

why don't you just use the MGT tranny... it's stronger than the E-maxx tranny..just make a mount, and use mod1 pinion.. and ur set....

this might be interesting to read.

When you use the stock transmission, you can use the gas/brake servo and the controller on the same channel, with a Y-cable.

here is the thread on the two I have did. If you look around batfish did another one. The second one I converted was his to start. I don't know if the mgt tranny is as strong as the emaxx. If you put the steel idlers in it. It is tough cookie to crumble. I had a chassis idea of a bolt on emaxx trans. It was going to have a low cog like the gmaxx. I would run two longer shafts and put the trans where you want it. Mike can get the shafts if you have the lengths.

Welcome to the forums to. Glad to see another mgt builder.

how did u mount the tranny did u cut into the chassis or did u make a plate? also in the picture of your mgt i like where everything is set what length shafts did u use was it the 93mm and 103mm?? are those custom or could i buy them somewhere?thanks

The last mgt I cut the chassis and ground notches in the chassis to clear the screws. The bottom plate is accually helping to hold the tranny on. The first one I made plates to attach the tranny to the chassis. Both work well. I think i had the shafts laying around. Mike can get custom shafts for you.

A contradiction;

'finished e-gt', 'need something to power the beast..'

How many cells?

coolhandcountry · 08.15.2006, 08:41 AM

My bro runs a 9xl on his with 16 cells. It does pretty good. I run a 1950 8t which is close to the same kv as 9xl. I run 16 cells as well. Some times 6s limn.

aqwut · 08.15.2006, 08:47 AM

I run 12 to 18 cells with Feigao 7xl and BK 9920... I haven't had a problems yet...

sorry for the contradiction it actually tho is running right now i just have the stock titans in it. i was wondering with the combo you guys where mentioning how much are they and how fast to they go? i was thinking about getting W 1/8 Nemesis BLUE XLT- 4 motor 2hp @50000 RPM and a

BK 9920/c Speed controller

squeeforever · 08.15.2006, 05:09 PM

Were did you get that from?? I don't really know what a XLT-4 is but a Feigao C XL from Mike would be the way to go. BTW, don't get a motor that will turn more than 40K RPM's on the voltage you are going to run. Any higher and they run hot and aren't efficient.

the xlt-4 motors are from fine design. i called them asking about the motors and they said " i've been in this business too long to give out alot of info." so i was left in the dark about these motors.

my dad works at my lhs so i hang out there alot. this person, mikey, who comes in every once in a while and who is good friends with chirs fine, brought in his bl lst and buggy. they had the xlt-4 motors, he said that it is a double wind motor instead of a single wind, and they are an xl size can. so theres the difference. IMO buy from RC-MONSTER!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder if they are a 4 pole motor. Any one know the site to nemisis?

if i am not mistakin they are exactly the same 2 pole motor as nemisis/feigao/wanderer, just a double wind for less torque and more rpm.....
