Best route?

[jkp41]

I do agree that that is the simplest route. I'm just wondering what the best route would be. I'm liking the looks of the 3905 transmission, and if I go that route, I'll probably copy stumblin's design mostly (imitation is the most sincere form of flattery ). I'm curious as to how well that conversion holds up and what not.

The emaxx tranny will be the simplest way, an so will a roller. You can sell the stock revo tranny and some of the other pieces. The tekno tray and staps are good for the battery. Or just buy a rcm mount and mod the tranny to be locked in second. Either way will work.

Thanks! Does the sickhobbies price seem reasonable or should I try to find a used one from ebay? I like the idea of a new roller and not inheriting someone else's problems, but would also like to cut out some of the cost of the build.

The 275 dollar option looks good, as it has all of the servos, which will sell for more than 20 bucks. You can look around on rctech and the traxxas forums and get a used roller cheaper. I bought a used roller, and it had a ton of spares for 150. Look around and seewhat you can find.
