10:06 PM

Hi all, I'm new to this forum as you can tell from my post count but I do have 4 yrs of RC and Forum experience! Still learning though!! lol

I have just purchased a Hot Bodies D8T, it's brand spanking new atm and I intend on "E" converting it.
So my question to you is do I go with the RCM Conversion Kit or the Tekno V4 Conversion Kit? Or the Elite Motor mount??

I have a choice of Motor/ESC combo's depending on the conversion kit I use, I just read that ZippyBasher has used a Castle 1717 I think with the RCM conversion kit and I have a 1717 with MMM spare but I also have a Tekin RX8 and T8 2000kv motor sitting in my RC cupboard.
I'm not sure which kit to use, I do really like the Tekno kit and then I would use the RX8/T8 combo but obviously the Tekno kit is a little more expensive. TBH I'm not really bothered about price, yes if I go the Tekno route then it will be a little longer before I could afford the conversion but that doesn't bother me because I want to do this right.

Help, advise, suggestions, pics, examples etc all welcome.

Thanks for your time guys, Jason.
