Is there an electric conversion kit out for the Cobra Gt nitro car? IF so whats the part #? I've been bitten by the electric bug and want to convert my Cobra GT nitro to electric. Thanks in advance!

D.a.v.e

No conversion kit but I would assume this kit going from gas buggy to electric truggy would give you most of the part numbers that would be needed: http://www.amain.com/Serpent-Cobra-8...on-Kit/p261362

Hi guys, I'm looking at getting me a GT8E kit, I won't buy the RTR.....RTR always sucks....but anyway.....I just want to know what you guys think I Wi ll need for the cars initial setup, is there any upgrades I need? could someone kindly give me a list of recommended parts/ electronics and so on....I would really appreciate it. I just sold my Kyosho GT1 and GT2 rs. I'm hooked on 1/8 Gt....thought of the 977e but just won't work on our track....

Thanks in advance guys

Need 0 degree c hubs and knuckles, metal servo arm (has to be the serpent one) probably some springs to tune for your track. Be careful of your motor selection can length cannot exceed 96mm

C@T

Is that 96 mm measurement from the Sertpent Cobra or the GTE8e ?

Oops should be 69 mm for the gte ex: only the 2650 and the 2050 tekin motors fit
I run the 2650 on 4s with 17t pinion

Thanks guys...important info....i actually have a 2050kv sitting at home but a lhs has a losi L8ight on such a good special that im trying to decide between the two.....doing alot of head scratching here

Pros and cons?

The Team Orion 1/8 Motor also fits, but barely, it will only work on the kit chassis which is milled (the RTR isn't) you need 2mm washers between the motor mount and motor and then you have about 1/2 a mm clearance between the end of the motor and the steering assembly.

I'm running a 2100kv on 4s, 20t pinion I think

thanks...would only buy a kit anyway.....so then the big hobbywing motors wont work? like the 4274....is it length or diameter that is the issue

Length is the main issue

Reaper1ct

ok so i would need:
the kit,
a motor thats not longer than 69mm,
0* knuckles and C hubs
Serpent servo horn...

Besides Body, Wheels and tyres.....

What else should i factor in?

i have a 2050kv tekin...what gearing do i need? i believe the kit comes with a 50t spur...do i need a 48t? what else would i need to look out for?

Start with a 19t Pinion and monitor temps, My motor usually comes off at 75c after a 5 minute race without a heatsink or fan.
