Well, I've sold some less important stuff on eBay and bought myself some time so I'll take it easy finding Mr Right! LOL

Well, I pulled it off eBay. I just can't bear the thought of letting it go for next-to-nothing to someone who has no idea what a special truck this is. Once I've got myself organised, I'll list it...

Thanks mate. I certainly put plenty of time into this baby! :-D

Thumbs up Gorillamaxx G3 for sale

Guys,

I've not used this baby for a couple of years and guess it's about time she found a more deserving home. I have her listed on eBay and I'll be adding details over the next few days. Thought...

Quick question..

Hey guys,

Been meaning to put up some pics of my G3 Revo build but had a lot on my plate recently. In short, it's got a Novak Ballistic 8 motor and LRP iX8 speedo. Fitted a Slipperential in an RCM...

My conclusion too. I seem to remember that, in order to fit it, I had to shave down the motor mount and grind the shaft down too. Then, with the gearing I was running, I had to accommodate a lower...

What assumptions? Assuming you don't know what you're talking about? I would have said that was self-evident.

All good creative inputs guys. I think Kevlar is intending to try using some kind of hydraulic hose, stretched over a wheel. If it can be done and it doesn't crush the wheel, I'd say it's got real...

Makes a load of sense snellemin. Course, I would say that as I'd already suggested a Neu 1521. :whistle:

Certainly, when it comes to a brick like the E-Revo, I can't think of a whole lot that can (practically) be done to reduce the requirement for significant levels of power output.

Brian, I wasn't suggesting that anybody fit a 5692 into an E-Revo, although, I have seen one fitted into a 1/8 scale buggy so wouldn't say it was impossible. Nor was I recommending it. I think that...

Interesting point, Brian.

Also, the motor on the standard E-Revo is mounted quite high up so it's not a bad idea to have a light motor. The 5692 is a great motor but I can't help thinking that it...

OoohKay! :oh:

5mm shaft is probably best - Easier to get pinions. Not sure about the 10 wind adder. The smooth can is $200 at Offshore Electrics.
