Yes conversion parts are available for the CEN buggy from RCM. I have a Matrix buggy that is still nitro and a Matrix truggy that is converted to electric. I think that the CEN buggy is a great bang for the buck buggy, it is very strong, built like a tank, I raced it pretty much every weekend last season and hardly broke anything other than wing mounts. I added the RTR long chassis to it and a set of Jammin super bigbore shocks and after that it handled like a dream.
