Well I'm a bit over standing backflips so my Flux is in a conversion mode as well.

At present we have:

Alza 5B Chassis Plates
Castle Neu 1717 Motor
MMM XLV2 ESC (due in tomorrow)

Transmission is all upgraded gears (HD Lightweight) Delrin Spur 16/48 gearing.

Have a 5SC Body, Body Posts / Bumpers and Wheels/Tyres on order but am at a loss how to mount it all. Looking at Rummy's build among others they all have some way of fabricating parts to suit, stuff I just don't have access to. Have contacted Alza but he needs drawings to fabricate something, which I haven't had a chance to do...... dilemma is do I cheap, buy a HK clone Baja, nick the Shell / Wheels/Tyres and Wing off it, make this a 5B with a cheaper ESC then convert the Baja with the MMMXLV2 as the centrepiece or is it workable to mount the 5SC bits without a machining shop?
