Step-by Step building the ultimate GR3 E-Revo!
Hay good evening gentlemen! I thought you would get a kick out my latest build?, It’s a “GEVO” GorillaMaxx E-Revo. I'm just showing pictures from start to finish now, you guys are all the (cream of the crops) so there is nothing I could say that you already don’t know.. I hope you enjoy them.. Have a great one..

That truck seems to resemble one I saw in person last Saturday. Oh wait, it is!
It's nice to see detailed build-up pics. Now I can see what I missed last time. Also nice to see the modded slipper clutch shaft. |
Yah thanks Mental man it is the same truck you helped me with.. Thanks for the advise on the trans Mod..
|
OMG, 1st step is to have a nice money figure in the bank

Yo man that was a nice series of photos:intello:. Its always nice to see just how much work goes into the builds. Great job and that is a very nice setup, but I am willing to bet it is also one of the most expensive builds around to:rules::lol:. That was a lot of parts. Now how does it run for you:whistle:? What MGM do you have onboard:eyes:? It will be good to hear how those packs do for your setup to. Nice work TDC57:yes:
|
Man I love it!
From a calc standpoint, you almost need more voltage on that motor. 6s only turns 30k rpm on a low kv 1515/3d motor. At least it should run nice and cool, plus you can gear higher for speed. |
Nice to see you here Shaun, and that truck is awesome.

info
Well whatever info you receive if it gets you running please post it up here:yes:. I just purchased the MGM 160/24 myself:yipi:. It is new with the newest firmware update installed, and all of the accesories to keep it operating for a very good discount. So I am sure that I will be looking for assistance when I get ready to set it up in one of my trucks. Good luck with that and keep us posted TDC57.:whistle:
|
Will do!, it does sound like we have the same controller / accessories, hopefully you wont have my issues.. I'll keep the team updated as / if / when progress gets made..
Thanks for your time and have a great one.. ps. got any pics of your bad boy?. |

droooollll lol thats what i did the whole time very nice build
|
Thanks BG!.. I was doing that everytime I had the oppertunity to work on her too. Loads of fun to build and I cant wait to drive her. I'm hoping to have her running soon. I did speak with with Ben @ sicklizds today and here are some pre-painting shoots he forward to me.. I should have the body by Friday (then it will be looking totaly SWEET) :oh::yes::yipi:
http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i.../BEVOBody2.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...BEVOBody01.jpg I hope you like it!.. Have a great one. Shaun. |
All right gentlemen,
I think the custom mods are just about complete?! (Yes!!) Here I'm showing the rear sway bar links, before and after. The before shoots represent a pair of stock 3905 E-Maxx steering drag links and the after represent the red anodized striped and polished Again thank you for your time in reviewing this thread and have a great day! Shaun. Before: http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...7/IMG_2423.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...7/IMG_2454.jpg After: http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...7/IMG_2458.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...7/IMG_2462.jpg (FYI) If you plan on doing this mod to your beast? The center support is a P3 rocker, Traxxas # 5329X the rear sway bar links are steering drag links off of a 3905 E-Maxx, Traxxas # 3914R and the front steering sway bar links are off a Rustler toe links, Traxxas # 3239X. All of these parts started out as Red anodized and I simply stripped them with Easy off oven cleaner and polished them using 0003 steel wool and Mothers Billet metal polish.. |
Concern
I was just looking at your project and I am wandering about your ESC monting. With the ESC mounted directly under the motor isn't that going to creat problems both with heat and with hi frequency interference:whistle:? Just a thought:lol:...

Not that I'm aware of?? I've got several people who know there *$^#& and I've been told / infomed that I've picked a great place for it? (who knows)??

WOW. This hobby never gets old for me. Every time I see some nice conversion, it's just WOW. This forum has by far the most beautiful conversions and experienced guys ever. Every day I learn something new and when I get a chance to do a Revo conversion, I'll be looking at some of the conversions here. Every conversion in this forum rocks.

My body is complete!.. Yaaaa
Now I just need to receive it and install it.. Cant wait.. http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...7/DSC08071.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...7/DSC08052.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...7/DSC08057.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...7/DSC08060.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...7/DSC08063.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...7/DSC08065.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...7/DSC08067.jpg Have a great one. |
Wow that body is hot!
Gonna look even better all scuffed up from doing standing backflips with that torquey motor :party: |
WOW!!!! there is not much more I can say...As far as the expense goes, can you REALLY put a price on FUN and a pure adrenaline rush?
