Redcat Rampage MT Brushless Conversion.

[aqwut]

Hello, finally had a chance to pick up my newly used rampage MT today.

The Plan...
Motor: Lehner 3080-8 (approximately 750KV)..
ESC: Schulze 40.300WK and/or Castle SHV 240
Batteries: 12S 5000mAh 25C PolyQuest (Maybe some 35C Hyperions in the near future)

Here's a comparison shot of the Rampage vs a Revo... The wheels on that thing just makes it look huge. But this sucker is much heavier than a Firehammer or a Baja 5B..


And the conversion begins... it won't be anything super amazing or or precise... I'll do the best I can with a bandsaw, drill press and files.



This is how I would like the motor to sit... This way, I would be able to use stock gearing... I'll have to figure a way on how to mount this motor in this position.. I already have an idea in mind....



I'll keep posting updates of the progress.... I'm hoping to finish this within a week... I just need someone to make me a sleeve.. that's all, I'll see if a buddy a work could do this...
