Many people here are running 2.4 Ghz radios with their electric vehicles. Including me.

It seems this ofna is a pretty big on road car. I think your biggest problem is going to be getting a motor mount.

You may have to e-mail mike (RC-Monster owner) and see if he can make a mount.

You did not specify how much money you were willing to spend. But you could get a NEU 1521 series motor to push that car around. Even a 1515 series would push it around pretty good. There are many people pushing around heavy 13-15 pound all aluminum savage trucks with a 1515 series NEU motor.

A MGM 22418 ESC would be good:

Actually, the motor mount for the DM1 is no problem at all. The Ofna CR (Jammin) buggy mount is a direct drop in from the RC-Monster store. Here. DM1 uses the same diff mount as the Jammin buggy so no mods are even needed to make it work. The only real challenge on the DM1 was figuring out how to mount the mechanical brake servo if you want to keep the 2 speed in it. I did keep the 2 speed and I really like the way it drives. I have been itching for spring to get it out and run it again. Here is a link to my DM1 conversion thread..


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...


Silent...But Deadly
