I would get the Turnigy 50-55 600kv because it has the 8mm shaft. Use the RCM 8mm output yokes for the revo driveshafts and you'll be set. BTW: Just stripped out my 5th and final stock 3.3 output yoke today doing some testing. Im really getting tired of this... RCM 8mm output yokes are a must!

I can attest to the quality and stoutness of the rcm output yokes. They are very nicely made! Thanks Monster Mike!

Oh and Im gonna send that guy thats making my motor mount an e-mail or talk to him over AIM and see what he can do. Im guessing he'll charge you around $20 for the finished mount and $5 shipping which is a nice deal. So what do you think of that idea with the battery setup that I showed you yesterday? Would you be interested in that because if you didnt do that mod it would have not nearly enough space to fit that monster 50-55 600kv outrunner in their. Im also looking into a way to fit a revo 3.3 driveshaft threw the front center driveline space. Might be able to mod those steering links. But ya untill then we'll see how it all plays out.

What mod are you talking about? Just the mount? Is $20 the lowest he would charge? I got a lot of stuff to buy. If you got any more sketches or anything on that mount please shoot it my way, I still need to see that it would work with those batteries.


Thanks Takedown

I am making prety good progress. I found a way to mount the batteries so they will not be in the way of the motor mount. Was not hard at all, just some good thinkin and some washers. I would take pictures but there really isn't anything to see.


As of now my decision is the Turnigy 50-55 600kv. Looks very promising.
