For the EP guys I converted an OFNA DM-1 Spec over to electric and blew away everything I knew about larger scales EP. I think Tekno-RC actually makes a conversion kit with the chassis and should check it out . . .

Sorry for the delay, we finally have the time to do it. I will post pictures this week. it has a bottom plate, top plate and front and rear shock towers. The roller should be built by the end of the week.

What am I looking at there? Basically just an electric motor mount that fits nitro motor mounting holes? And then either a pinion gear or electric clutch/bell to connect it to the drivetrain?

I should have never sold mine!

I wonder if HPI will re-release the super RS4 again or something like it. Something like what Tamiya has done with lots of their vintage cars.

I would love to get my hands on another super rs4 electric again.
