trxmh E-Revo Conversion - 11.14.2008, 06:04 PM

Hi all! Im Mikko from Finland and new in here.

Im almost completely finished my E-Revo conversion.

The tranny is modified to lock into 2nd gear to enabling motor brakes and reverse.
Im using a RCM Revo motor mount, a Tekno-RC esc and batt mount, receiver box.

Mamba Max esc with ubec, 1900kv xl chinese motor, 4s zippy 5000mah lipo battery.

Here are some pics of my build so far. 8)


some new stuff:

Have you done any mods. to the mm esc? With 4s, you should add a cap to help w/cooling...like this one...http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail.php?prod=35vcap

Use the one w/the leads...it's easier. Also, that motor may not last very long...not the best quality. When it blows up, look at the Medusa line or Neu line of motors. The cheaper motors just don't last very long....just a suggestion.


By the way, WELCOME TO THE FORUMS!

Are you using this motor? - http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/s...hless_Inrunner

I was thinking about getting a different size of that motor for my crt .5.

How much driving have you done yet? I want to know how that motor works. It's got a pretty nice price.

The truck looks awesome! And like the others, I do recommend a better motor. Also, the body looks great, and I was wondering what was the exact type of paint you used for the green. Do those mashers balloon alot?
