E-truggy or conversion

All you really need is a motor mount which you can buy here...Mike sells many different ones.

A battery tray which Mike sells here in many different sizes...or he will make you a custom tray to your desired specs....I have 5 custom trays from Mike. Drill a few holes in chassis to mount batt tray....done

convert to a single servo for steering and that is pretty much it

You can pick up used good rollers for around $ 200- w/spares, add motor mount and batt tray for another $ 90-, a good used radio system for another $ 125- or so, 1515 ccneu for another $ 150- and you should be in good shape.

Good truggy rollers to look for

1. mugen mbx6T or the older mbx5T
2. X-ray 8T-08 spec or 09 spec - 08 spec will be cheaper
3. Losi 2.0

Mike is also working on full conversion kits for some of the truggies as well..look in the RCM store under RCMonster parts

IMO, the ones I listed are more durable. I have a mbx5t and it is built like a tank

Personal preference... I'm really quite pleased with my RC8T FT. :)
