BTW: your Revo looks nice (but wayyy too clean :))! I take it you are keeping the 2 speed tranny and using mechanical brakes? I'm sure you know this, but you won't be able to use reverse with the stock tranny without mods...

Well I just bought it. Last Monday it was still in the box. I wasn't going to post about the project till I had it running, but you asked.
Yes, I'll be using the 2-speed trans with mechanical brakes (both front and rear). I wanted to try high voltage so I am using CC PHX 110-HV with a PiStix adapter. Power will be from a single 6S1P 3700 EVO-20 pack. I wanted to start off slow so I'm using a BK 12XL which at 22.2v shouldn't be too bad.
I should still have reverse with the use of the 3rd channel. Unless the servo Y connection for the throttle doesn't work and I have to use channel mixing. I'm new to RCs so I'm still learning what works and doesn't. But isn't that what all of us are doing here? Seeing what works and how well. I still have more to put on the truck but it's getting there. I don't have as much time to work on it as I would like. Work looks like it's going to be slowing down this week. So I might be able to knock out some mounting plates for the ESC and batt and get it running.
