Brushless Cen Genesis Gst owners please stop in!

Hi Guys.

I've been considering doing a brushless conversion on the Cen Genesis Gst 7.7 MT.

The thing just looks really cool.

I've seen several conversions, but I don't think I like the center diff setup.

What are the options? Will a Transmission be the ticket?

I just don't want the center diff action and am not fond of trying to lock a center diff either.

The setup has to be tough. Power Plant of choice with be the Castle 1717 motor on either 6S or maybe even 8S. The Mamba XL will be the ESC.

I've seen setups with one large pack toward the front between the frame rails. But perhaps a battery compartment configuration similiar to the flux is in order.

How tough are the Cen Genesis diffs? What's the gear ratio?

I know with this kind of power on board, things need to be tough. The Cen Genesis comes with some big meaty tires, that's for sure.

So many questions, so few answers, but I do love the looks of the Cen Genesis.

Feel free to post here. Any input is greatly appreciated.
