OFNA DM-1 Spec Conversion
 

Hey guys, I converted an OFNA DM-1 to brushless using Tekin electronics and leaving the 2-speed and mechanical brakes. This thing is super fast!

Here's is the link for the build and a couple of pictures. There is a video at the end.

Family life and work is keeping me from going out right now during the week.

Love that pic, makes the car look like a full size!!!

Read your build, good stuff. Does the teckno chassis allow for the motor mount to be mooved (cow joke) so that a std pinion or 2 speed adapter can be used? I am not really fond of the clutch, and the extra weight it places on the motor shaft and front bearing. Not so bad with a lightweight traxxas setup, I ran that when I had my teckno converted revo.

Yes, about 1/2" movement. It can be used with a standard pinion which I will eventually go to most likely, but for now I am loving the clutch.

Sweet ride, that chassis is uber clean!

Very Nice indeed, sano conversion. Paint and Body is sweet also.

Nice car, I like the dm1.
I'm waiting for a chassis-tekno OFNA. I'm anxious.
Congratulations on the painting.
Greetings.

Love the GT-R body. Looks like my car!

that is a beautiful ride...wow

i have the spec 1 that i converted to brushless and i have had clocked at 62 mph on a 4s setup i running a hobbywing 80amp esc have you had it clocked yet?

Thanks guys, I appreciate all of your comments.

I have not had a chance to clock it, but based on Nitrohouse's build and gearing, I predict mine is right along their lines and yours. 60mph on 4s and 80mph+ on 6s.

Are you running the 2-speed?

Very nice man, you look into the zombie diffs anymore, LOL!

Hey simplechamp. I have not yet, but still interested. You built those for a Jammin right? I am trying to find out if those parts are compatible or if those diffs will fit in the bulkhead of the DM-1.

nope just the 1 speed hey try using grp tires rally b i love those for high speed runs

Are they a larger diameter than the stock, or just balloon less?

*

same size but they are solid tires they cost about 30.00 to 40.00 but here they are only 19.99 http://www.brucknerhobbies.com/GRP%20Products.htm
they last for a long time i mean a very long times...go to the web site and see how they make them http://www.grpgandini.com/

Jammin buggy/truggy and the DM-1 use the same diff bulks (OFN40533) so they will fit fine.

Great! I'll pick up a set. Thanks for the info.

Excellent! I'll start building them! :yipi:

I posted a couple of HD video of the DM-1 at the track today. Mike's here in Houston is going to be host of the GT Nationals this year in October. Looks like I picked the right car at the right time.
