yep, sike had one, and it was working great for him. I am not sure what kv it was. Should be fine with 4s lipo or 12 nimh.

i decieded to change my plans a little bit and remove the tranny all toegther and use a axi 4130/16 outrunner with a custom mount.
im kinda stuck on how to connect the motor shaft to the diff i was thinking using this kit http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail..._G-MAXX&cat=11 and boring out one of the drive cups to fit the 6 mill shaft think this would work. if not please throw up some ideas.

[traxxasrevony]

no one has any suggjestions.

I would see if Mike could make some of these adapters with 6mm bore instead of 8mm. http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail...mrevov2coupler

That way you could use the revo spec center driveshafts, which should be strong enough to handle the outrunner.

just emailed mike about it. ill see what he says can be done

Those would be my choice. I have beat the crap out of my revo sliders and they have taken the abuse. Plus the metal adapters I linked to have set screws on either side, so they can clap to a round shaft well. I would still make soem flat spots for the set screws to bite on though.

yea i just need to wait til my next pay check to order the motor. i think im going with the axi 4130/16 at 365 kv on 12nimh lipo i should be around 40 which will be plenty in a 2wd truck. i should get my mm back from cc in about 2-3 weeks also so it should play out pretty good

[traxxasrevony]

welp been 2 days and no response from mike. looks like hes pretty busy. im thinking i should pm him just incase i didnt get his email back

I usually get an email confirming an order too, but haven't. I suspect he's gone on vacation, 4th of July week?

[traxxasrevony]

i just thought of that. ill wait till after the weekend seeing as i wount have money to spend on anything for anoter two weeks as i just shelled out money for a motor rebuild on my snowmobile.

[traxxasrevony]

well i finally ordered and recived the outrunner, i found a new snowmobile and the deal was too good to pass up so i put the project on hold for a bit. the motor is huge! i put it in my revo just to see how it went and using a 25 tooth pinion i saw a wopping 16 mph on radar with 12 nimh. it ran really well on the mmm but was horrible on the mm it cogged like crazy, and im using the same radio for both trucks anyways so im going to use the same esc for both trucks seeing as i cant use them at the same time anyways. that gives me the mm and stock tq3 radio for my axial ax-10 crawler kit i just ordered. ill have pics of the motor up tomarrow.
