New Conversion Kit From FLM - RC-Monster Forums

**New Conversion Kit From FLM -** 11.18.2007, 03:43 PM

This is from Jamie at Fast Lane:

"BRUSHLESS CONVERSION
We have a new TVP available as a brushless conversion.
What we did was machine out a section of our Ext LCG TVP by the motor mount to accomodate a brushless motor.
So now you have a brushless motor that can sit low to reduce the center of gravity.
The kit is available in 2 versions for now.
One for current TVP owners. What you get is one side TVP, and motor mount.
The other kit will include both TVPs one standard side and one brushless conversion side, motor mount and driveshaft.
We include the standard side to enable you to mount a 4s lipo on the inside next to the motor (it gives you something to strap the battery down to). It looks very nice when assembled. I will have some pics and part #s available sometime today.
It does look like a 5s lipo will fit bit I cannot say for sure because I do not have one."

It will be interesting to see this.

What did you do to get an answer from him? it took me 7 emails without 1 single reply..

Is that the reason FLM's site was closed last night?

Serum, he never answers me either. I copied that from the Savage-Central forums. I still think Mike's setup will be better.

I am also very curious as to what FLM is working on.

Their website is still not working as well...

I worked with Jamie on this - we are still working out the battery mount, but the motor mount uses my current Revo motor mount front plate and rear support. The TVP is relieved to allow adjustment of the motor beyond the tvp. The picture shows a 3700mah 4s Apache/Enerland pack installed. I have these on order of course -just working out final details on the battery mount strategy. :)

FastLane's site has been down for a couple days, but I know they are working o getting it back up - emails are most likely not getting through.
Rene - I think Jamie finally replied to you as well. :)

Hey Mike, I'm guessing by the pictures a 4s 8000mAh lipo will not fit. right?

Bye

Mike, what shocks are on that Savage?

RC-Monster Mike · 11.21.2007, 12:28 PM

The Maxamps lipos have a slightly smaller foot print than the one in the truck now(MA packs are slightly shorter and narrower). It would probably fit, but would be about twice as tall. :)
