Sorry to hear that your experiences with conversions have been somewhat negative. For some of us the driving is the main reason we are in this sport. Then again for some of us we enjoy the mechanical work involved with this hobby is just another reason that we love doing this. I for one learn every time something breaks. Sure when it breaks I get pissed off that it was something that I either should have seen in advance and prevented, or just did not know about the weakness. Still I find a way to overcome the problem and make the truck stronger, faster and more reliable with each failure. Ultimately the goal is to build a vehicle that can take whatever I throw at it and still keep right on truckin. Like the Energizer Bunny.

The reason a lot of guys even get into conversions is due to the fact that they have a truck that has already proven itself to be pretty tough as a Nitro, but they want the simplicity of brushless operation. The problem is that Brushless is a lot more powerful then most imagine, and the nitro vehicles just are not built for the torque involved. Even most of the electric models are not designed for the masive brushless power that we are putting into them. This hobby is definitely a trial and error issue that we all have to learn from. Good luck with your endevours.
