Im looking for a 1/8 scale electric road car, and there doesn't seem to be anything around.. the DM-1 tekno conversion looks perfect, but I can't find it ANYWHERE >> HELP :)

are you looking for the car or the conversion kit?

Tower sells the DM-1...http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXVVS8&P=ML

Dammmmmm That is slick. I have always wanted an electric 1/7th scale dm-1... Not the spec, but the true 1/7 with the 4 wheel canteliver setup. Not sure what to run... I would want it to do 80 at least. Still need to convert my HB lightning street. Too many projects.

Ok, this chassis is for the spec... That sucks. Guess I will just make my own chassis...

Ofna is distributing the DM1-spec conversion. I think Nitrohouse has it. 1/8th onroad is quite fun!

Yup, that is where I found it, nitrohouse also has the spec kits for 330. So 140 for the chassis and 330 for the kit. Around 500 for a roller, but at least it is electric ready! With the 2 speed, clutch adapter and mech brakes one could run a really cheap setup, air esc and feigao motor, all on 4-5s and have a fun car for 650 out the door (maybe cheaper with some careful buys from HC).

I always enjoyed the ultra gtp, and the dm1, even the spec, should handle much better.

I've been looking at the DM-1 spec......x-mass is coming!

Nice, yes found the kit on nitrohouse, AWESOME!

Tower has the dm-1 for 329 -60 free ship though.. can't beat it

270 + conversion and I already have a MMM 2200 combo I can toss in it and a rx :)

Nice!

Here you go - It got around pretty well considering that it was on a 1/10 sized track.

That has to be the best way to get into 1/8 brushless on road.

@stum did you ever get that dm-1 converted if so what battery did you use and what kv motor and how did it handle because I just bought a dm-1 spec and I just want to know what I'll be getting myself into once I convert it

I run a CC 2200 combo in mine and the really big issue is getting traction

Are you using the single speed or the 2speed and what battery are you using
