I thought of that too. $300 for a roller, another $150-200 in parts. Here's what another member listed for parts to do the conversion:

810/ten-t chassis
810/ten-t rear center shaft
810/ten-t chassis guards
810 body mount kit (nub for the front and rear)
810 body

Another member mentioned I'd have to get these parts as well:

810 wheel axles and the 17mm hubs as well

Another option would be to get this:

AND

http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...gy-Race-Roller

Together, I'd be looking at spending around $530. Not too bad. I can probably use my CC SCT combo on this buggy, with a 3S.

Thoughts anyone?
