Well, picked up a Jato today (only the 2.5) and started stripping it. Did the single speed conversion (which does lock the tranny so I'll be able to use ESC braking and reverse) and RPM arms. Wow, with all the Nitro parts out, it only weighs 2 pounds at most! I'm planning to use either 2s or 3s E-Molis which I recently purchased. Even with those batteries, ESC, and BL motor, the whole thing will only weigh 5 pounds. Now, I gotta figure out what I'm going to use for a motor/ESC. At first I was going to use a Lehner basic 3100 with a Quark 80 ESC, but those Monster Max combos are looking pretty tempting for the price! I would think the 4600 should be fine right, especially if I go with 3s? If I go with 2s, I'd say the 5700 would be more appropriate. However, I'd like to keep the current down so I don't mind sticking with higher voltage (3s).
