After lurking for a few days, this is my first post. Here's my story...

After trying for four months to get my Revo 3.3 tuned and running consistantly, I'm giving up on gas (at least for a while). You see I'm a No0B at this RC stuff, but have taken to the E-side of things with an E-Maxx and a couple of e-minis with a lot more luck than the gas. So, I"m swapping my Revo out to a brushless system. I just ordered one of Mike's motor plates and a few other parts to get me moving, but I'm still wondering about motor and ESC. I would also like to keep my two speed tranny even if it means using a forward only ESC and retaining my mechanical brake set-up. The goal is to be able to keep up with the nitros at the local track. It's a short track and I'm pretty confident I can get there with a little help from you guys. I have a bunch of 7 cell batteries with Dean's I'd like to use to begin with, but eventually switch to lipo once the truck is complete and working correctly.

I'm going to use Mike and RC Monster for as much of the conversion stuff as possible, so I'm hoping to be able to document the plunge here on the RC Monster forums. Thanks in advance and I hope you guys don't get tired of the nooby questions. :032:
