Krawlin's OFNA Mutilator Conversion
 

Going to do my first 1/8 conversion here! I am going to buy a Jammin X1-CRT used, and do a full conversion of it. Not new to the brushless scene, but new to conversions.

Anyway, my current big can brushless project is my 36-80 Medusa powered 3906 E-Maxx. So I figured a truggy conversion would be a fun new project.

Let the build begin!

I will update you guys with the setup that I plan on putting in, costs, and other build start off stuff later tonight.


And a big thanks to Ben (brushlessboy16) for your help in picking my battery, charger, and motor/esc setup. :wink:

Looking forward to seeing pics and the finished project. See I knew youd eventually give into the brushless scene.:lol::party:

I gave in a long time ago when I went brushless with my E-Maxx. And I still have my nitro buggy, it's staying nitro, I just felt like having a brushless truggy so I am going to get one.

can i have one since you make pull truggies out of ur ass?:lol:

make that 2...haha, but I would like either a kyosho, or an associated. I alreay have the CRT.

Funny....

You already have a nice CEN truggy, go get your own.:lol:

Alright, so here is the setup I plan on getting -

Zippy 5000 mAh 5S pack

MMM/CCNeu 2200Kv combo

IMAX B5 Charger/Balancer

IMAX PowerSupply


I know that the battery and charger and power supply are ChinaMart stuff but I have heard pretty good things about all of that stuff, so I figured why not try it out.

Does anyone happen to know if the RCM motor mount for a Jammin X1-CRT will work with the OFNA Mutilator truggy? I might just be able to get an OFNA Mutilator in trade for my nitro buggy tomorrow.... :yes:

I think your going to have to throw mike an e-mail.:yes:

Alright, change in the built, it's officially going to be an OFNA Mutilator truggy. Getting it for only $200, practically new, has a couple upgrades, chassis hardly has any scratches, and the .32 has only just been broken in (and it's going in my buggy :diablo:) (and it's my dad's truggy so I should be able to buy it from him by the end of next week.)

Can't wait to get some pictures of it on here and start on the build!

I think you made a mistake. I hear that mutilators are crap.

Ditto:whistle:

I heard that too

I dont think they are that bad.
what makes you guys think they are so bad? other than just stuff you have "heard"

The Mutilator Pro is basically a less "pre-upgraded" version of the Jammin X1-CRT. All parts are interchangeable for the most part. I have the first version of the Mutilator which has king-pin, but I plan on putting the Pro version's front suspension in, which is c-hub just like the X1-CRT. And pretty much all of the upgrades for the X1-CRT will fit the Mutilator. And it is my dad's truggy so I have gotten to drive it quite a bit, its not weak anywhere except for the king pin suspension and its really a great truggy for the price I am getting it at. And I will buy a bunch of X1-CRT hop ups for it, like the X1-CRT CF front plate and the X1-CRT CF diff top plate and it will be perfect.

SO DONT BE HATERS!!! :lol:

The only reason you said that was because Ben and Ian said that.:whip: :no:

Yeah, what he said!! :lol:
