The only thing I dont like about this conversion is what to do for a motor and esc and batts, I have a savage xle with flux 2200kv and mamba monster with 2 Hyperion 3s vx5000 35c batts and I can't get it to run very cool even with a 9tooth pinion? I wonder what adding a few more pounds would do? I smell smoke and maybe fire. Lol!
The one in the magazine said he's running 2 2s thunderpower sport packs 28c I believe. I bet he only runs it for 5min at a time lol before the esc is over 150deg on a cool day!
If you do this conversion I would plan on getting a 10s capable esc or higher and mounting the batterys inside the tvp's and not in the flux batt boxes and less than a 2200kv motor.
If he's running a 2650kv on 4s it's got to be getting so hot so quick!
If anyone from TCS or radio controlled car action could chime in on this would be great! This would help people not fry esc's!
