What is the car extension?

So the motors are not a good a a neu, but i am sure that they are better than a feigao motor?!

The only problem I had with the Jazz 55 was when I tried it with the Align 600L motor on 36V. It stopped working, but I guess it was my fualt. I ran the 40 HV controller with the BPP truck and the only thing that went wrong with it was the capacitor. Kontronik makes solid controllers, but the price is up there as well.

The Power Jazz 63V doesn't have car software. I tried asking Mike at Kontronik if he can add the car software to it and he said it would take 4-6 weeks, but I haven't heard anything yet from him.

Yeah, that kontronik HV controller looks nice. I went and looked around hoping to find something about running it in a car, but no luck either.

If the controller is as bullet proof as they say, the price tag isn't high at all, considering what the half dozen MMs, two Quarks and four Compros cost looking for the "right" controller.

Thanks. I hope to finish the 1:8 soon now. Maybe in the next month. Will update my thread here when its done, but you can see some of it in my RCG blog entry here for the time being.

My brief conversation with Kontronik on my proposed setup seemed good. Can read it here.

Judging from your thread you put a lot more effort in your conversion than i did

Nice motor mount btw

I used a emaxx motor mount, dremeled it the way i needed it and bolted it to the front diff mount. My old buggy already had a plastic spur. I think i used the same material to make my battery trays and wrapped it with Gaffa tape for more stability.

Seeing 2 battery trays and the fact that you turned your center diff to the front i would assume you are going for the following setup

right?

pretty much what i did too ...

This is a pic of my old 4s setup (Jazz 80-6-18, Fun 600/25 and Konion 4s4p)
And this is how i run it now (Jazz 55-10-32, Neu 1512/2y, 10s1p A123)
