Elektri-Clutch in a 1/8 Buggy

[starscream]

jhautz,
I made a custom clutch back in January and it was definetly not a waste of time.
Here's the link for those that don't remember or never saw it: http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5265

Anyway, I gave up with the project because the Losi 8ight did not have enough room for batts with the configuration I had as well as the motor temps were pretty high. I never tried running the shoes in reverse though.

I'm going to give this a try again with the Electiclutch because this adapter seems a little more freindly than my custom setup.

I guess I should have put a patent on it back then :)

have you put any time on this set-up yet, how is it working??

i just won a xray truggy and am getting ideas

No... No its not running yet. I have a couple little parts that ordered and I'm waiting for still and I need to get a battery tray worked out and the whole thing wired. I doubt I will spend any time on this untill after after the new year.

I'm pretty much booked from now untill January. Really sucks cuz I'm die'n to see how it works as well.

I like the conversion, looks really good!

I am also going to try out the clutch setup in my yusa rally (inferno gt). I modded a 4tec 2 speed clutch bell to get the correct spacing for the 2 speed spurs. I am also stuck waiting on parts, and I need to make a custom motor mount too.
