First E- Revo

[PlayerOne]

hey,

i was just wanted to know if this is a good set up?(Attached) im not looking to race or anything, probably do light bashing and Normal use. Im trying to get the best set up for the money.

Bah, I thought a "real" brushless E-revo . If I were you, I'd rather get a Neu motor or if money is an issue, get a Medusa.

If best bang for the money is your real goal, then find one of the new brushless Revo's on a pre-order basis for around 700. Someone posted a link to one or more in that price range.

You will still need the batteries and charger, though.

If you want the uniqueness of having a converted rig, then you are on the right track. Might want a little more motor, like George suggested. You can get your lipos a little cheaper than that by buying some of the NeuEnergy;s that they have on sale, or with some of the Zippy's.

yeah im going for the converted truck, ill look into those batteries and motor

I also have to add that I'm not a fan of that conversion kit. Looks pretty low budget to me, and not well thought out. Look at where they have the ESC - its subject to damage there. And the MMM has a little bigger foot print than the HV does (which they have in the picture), so I'd be very nervous about it sitting there overhanging like that.
From what I've read, the Tekno kit is one of the better conversion kits avialable. A-Main is having a 10% sale this month - so you can get a little off of it from them.
