My first brushless conversion.

Take it easy on me guys, also thanks for all your help lincpimp.



specs
Jammin CRT. 5 converted to brushless
RC monster brushless conversion
Mamba Max
Feagio 9 L
JR 8711
3s Maxamps 6000 mah lipo
Panther paddle tires on all 4 corners
CCBEC
RC screws stainless steal screws for the Jammin CRT.5
Hpi Bug body for a RS4 MT

I still have to do a little work to get the body just right on the chassis.

Nice...I just bought a crt.5 myself and am waiting to pick it up tomorrow...With those paddle tires you will kick up some serious rooster tails.......From your pics, is that the 40mm ext. chassis Mike sells?
I like the body.........and the keg in the background...even the brand!

WELCOME TO THE FORUMS!

Yes, its the 40mm ext chassis from RCM, very good quality chassis, I frikin love it. The paddles are for the sand bar at the river, I plan to do some brushless slash smoking with this thing. I all so have some bowties and road tires for this thing. About the keg, I am on a Coors kick for some reason.

I also have a yearning for Coors light... which is my drink of choice...

Looks good Chip, I like the paddle tires and the bug body, definately unique! Only thing I would suggest is a Rcm heatsinl/clamp for the 9l. Helps knock a few deg off the motor and will keep it together after a few hard landings. Can't wait to see this in person!

The novak 25mm fans work well for the MM, just use an 1/4 spacer on each screw to give the fan some room to mave air.

Did you do ok in the storm?

That looks sweet. Just make sure you get another 2 sand paddles though . Should look really good with body painted.

Waiting on LHS to get the paddles.

I read... It seems a bit dumb to only buy 2 paddles though. Even if my LHS only had 2, I'd wait until they got another 2 in stock.

The paddles were for my brushless slash, which is only 2wd so at the time I didn't need 4 paddle tires. Now that I have done the CRT.5, which is 4wd I do need 2 more paddle tires. I ordered them from my LHS which doesn't stock anything but Traxxas stuff. I could have mail ordered them, but I can get them in the same time thru the LHS for cheaper than mail order. If that makes sense to you.
