I used an extra Losi 8ight-e battery tray that I had laying around...i just attached it to some pieces of delrin then attached it to the chassis via the delrin.....I'm using a Neu 1515 1/y...MMM....on 4s 5000 zippy's geared 15/46 (it comes with the 46t spur)
I'll report on handling, jumping, etc...etc...etc..once I run it tomorrow...pretty straight forward conversion.....
BTW...this was my first brand new out of the box from the hobby shop RC since my first stampede....:lol: :mdr:

this thing actually looks pretty bada$$ with just the roll cage on:yes:...
and also BTW, i sold all of the nitro stuff along with the servos/rx/txfor $200....so actually its a $684-$200 = $484 sc8 roller now ( i already had all the electronics...pulled from my now sold spare 8ight)

Yup.

Looks good.

Wait until you drive this thing on the street!!!!

It sounds SOOOO cool. Since the nasty nitro whine is gone, you can easily hear all of the tires screeching. Hit the brakes and AWHHHHRR... The skids are sweet. Turn to the side really fast and the truck sways from side to side (very scale looking)!

But the tire noises are the coolest!

Was that RCM motormount and servo mount?

yes...the RCM motormount and servo mount..

Sweet! very inpressive! and nice roll cage!

699.00 thats alot! These things are soooo expensive.

well....with ups ground shipping.....and $25 off coupon it comes out to around $680 shipped....i sold the motor/tx/rx/servos/and the rest of the nitro stuff for $200 so in all actuality if was a $480 roller....BUT you still need to add your own electronics....

Nice conversion Hootie! I look forward to the reports and maybe some video?

Nice conversion, be sure to update tomorrow when you take it for its first run

Looks great.
