Hi there,

There's very limited information to find concerning this product (Tranny Forward brushless conversion). Here on RCM the only topic was this one.

I currently have an Savage Flux and I would like to make it XL length with the option to put the LiPo's internally. So I went looking but the choice is very limited in this. It was this FLM conversion kit or the DesertBoy-17 from GCM, which is a bit to big for my liking. Anyway, I have some questions concerning this product.

Is it a 'simple' conversion or are there many mods required? (my Flux is mostly stock except for some Cenn Diffs)
Do I need to buy anything else besides the kit to convert?
I'm planning on using the Flux motor, how much space is than available for the LiPo? (I already have some 4S 5A 20C LiPo's that are 148 x 49 x 33mm)
Is the Flux motor mountable on the motor mount?
Any disadvantages to this kit with weight distribution or something else? (Because now the LiPo / motor and ESC would be to the back of the truck.)

Any input is appreciated!
