Good on ya mate, not everything needs brushless. My summit I converted from an e-Revo and it cost $55 total to do, incl a Dewalt Motor (by selling off the old E-Revo bits I got some $ back)

Doesn't need to be fast, it's my basher :)

We have no problem with your project as long as that makes you happy. It was you who started out by appearing a bit arrogant trying to shove your low budget project down our throats with sarcasim. What you did is great and I am sure that most of us have done that exact thing years ago when we were like 12 years old. most of the regular crowd in here have been doing this for a few years and have moved on to more impressive BL systems, and using Lipos, because it is the new technology. What you have created is very outdated and old school. If your budget is $50 then good for you on your accomplishment with this project. If you are new to R/C or in the 10 to 14 age group, then what you have done is great. If none of this is true than none of the guys in here will be impressed with what you have done, nor will they care. 99% of what is done in here is brushless. That is what this site is all about. Anyone and everyone is welcome in here, and we all have a great time sharing info, ideas, and projects with each other. Good for you on your $50- project. Hopefully you will improve with time and knowledge. Our lives are about moving forward and progressing towards efficiancy, and more power. Not taking steps backwards and/or regression. Good luck with your future efforts and enjoy your time in here learning from the people in here who are true inovators of this hobby. Most of all have fun with whatever you create and don't be so angry when someone projects constructive comments in your direction. If you don't like that, then don't post up in a public forum/sites trying to push your idea of what creative is on people who are obviously way ahead of your project. Be happy, and turn your hostility into creating more R/C projects. Good luck and have fun. Don't be hatin.
