Meaning of "Brushless Conversion"

[redshift]

I want to see some brushed conversions to tame those nitros that are just too damned fast......

I don't see the appeal still tho, most of the early conversions were way too 'busy'. Mechanically redundant and overcomplicated IMO. With the new ESCs I don't even see a need for a slipper, not to mention the centrif clutch... but then I'm not a racer.

I like some of these super simple layouts I'm seeing- direct drive and absolute minimum parts I think is the way to go... but I do appreciate the work that goes into the conversions also.. and I mean the REAL conversions
