"Direct Drive to Diff" MT2 18SS - 12.02.2007, 07:04 PM

Prompted by sikeston34m's "Direct Drive to Diff E-Revo Build" thread I have started work on turning my speed demon, inrunner-powered MT2 18SS into an insane outrunner setup.

Here's what I currently have in my possession:
-HPI MT2 18SS with aluminum diff housings
-KMS 4120/6 outrunner motor
-OEMRC 100amp 12s airplane ESC with programming card
-PiStix adapter
-10 fresh A123 cells from a Dewalt 36v pack (will be run 6s normally, 10s for speed runs)
-CCBEC for running with 6s A123
-Airtronics 357 for steering, and I'll try to work with my Hitec 5245mg for braking

Need:
-turn motor shaft from 6mm to 5mm, and modify it to work for the intended setup
-Servo mounts (steering and brake)
-motor mount, looking into making one out of polycarbonate for decent shock absorbtion and low weight
-gotta make the battery packs (6s shotgun and 4s shotgun)
-work on dogbone lengths

Like the AXI sikeston34m is using, this motor uses 3 bearings, and appears to be of good overall quality. And it helps that I got it at a good discount. Also, it looks like the stator is keyed to the bearing holder/front endbell (I can take a pic of this if you guys want to see what I am referring to).

This build will be better documented than my other projects. Usually I tend to outline a project, get initial pics, finish it, and then post finished pics. But that's no fun for anybody besides myself.
