My intro + Ofna E-Corr conversion

[Overdriven]

Hey everyone. Been lurking around here for awhile and decided to post up my Ofna Lx buggy, now that its done. Well almost done anyway, still needs a reciever box/antennae mount, and mount the rear bumper, but i beat on it as is.






I have it geared 14/51 with the MMM 2200 combo on Polyquest 5s 6000, and get solid 25min runs. Oh yea and it rips the tires off while doing it I had a VXL rusty before this so I knew brushless was fast, but this thing is ridiculous. Any recommendations for a street tire? I tried a set of Imex "rally" tires and burned through half the tread on the rear tires in one pack, plus it slid around like they were drift tires.

nice built !!!!did you have change the ring gear of the diff??

I haven't touched the diffs yet, except to put 50k in the center. I really should go through this buggy some more, as its showing its age a bit. One of these days I'm not thrashing on it I'll do the diffs and shocks. I actually traded a set of MT tires for it and made the all the conversion parts myself to save $. I couldn't have asked for a better intro vehicle to HV brushless systems.

I really like the looks of it.. What body is that? need some more pics of how the body mounts are made and how you mounted the front bumper.

Thanks. It's a Proline Hardcore Slash body. I'll take a few more pics and post them upfor you in a bit

For the front body mounts I used long revo body posts, attached using the shock screws and an extra screw. The rear I used the buggy wing mount modded for the correct angle. For the bumper I removed the original buggy bumper, slid a piece of alum in the slot and screwed the slash bumper to the alum. Another piece of alum attaches the bumper brace to the shock tower. I haven't done the rear yet, but will probably cut a piece of alum and attach it like a skid plate.
