Latest conversion project - HB GT10

[Takedown]

Nice clean conversion. What are you going to do about the hanging TP pack? Would you run a saddle pack with both packs ontop of each other to set a smaller footprint on the chassis.

HAH!!

I had just zip-tied that into place to be able to test drive the truck around the house a bit.

I have a custom 40x132mm battery tray on order from Mike that I will be putting in the truck. Just got the click-n-ship notice this morning so hopefully I'll have that by the weekend along with my new servo from a-main.

I do wanna run 6S in this truck, so I went forward and got one of these:

Going to have a 10-12S project coming up sometime next summer, so I wanted to give the MGM another try and see how it performs.

Got the servo and Mike's custom 40x132mm battery tray in the mail yesterday.

The servo makes a world of difference. The stock one was - well - pretty much what you would expect from a stock analog servo.

Mike's new single piece design battery tray fits really nice. Just had to trim a touch off the lower outside edge so it would fit sung with the chassis.

Here's a few pics:
