Converting a 15lb beastly truggzilla to brushless. - 10.18.2007, 11:13 PM

I am unbelievably tired of $30 per gallon fuel, tuning, glow plugs, fumes,
break-in, after run oil, air filter cleaning, burnt up clutch every 5 runs, lots of noise, starter boxes, glow ignitors, fuel filters, stinger burns, melted bodys, angry neighbors, losing compression, AIR LEAKS, dirt sticking to the greasy fuel spattered truggy, vibration loosening screws, stalling, fouled glow plugs, blown gaskets and all that crud.

But I don't want to lose the awesome power of nitro, I've been running nitro since the beginning for about 2 years now, last year my dad entered the hobby with a Mambafied B4, My Losi Muggy weighs over 15lbs and still hauls ass.

I can easily place a cola can in the position of the engine so that's about the size electric motor I could use, I want it to top 4hp or something like that so I never miss nitro. If that's possible.

I'll start getting some pictures as soon as my camera is charged.

Here's a really old one. I've upgraded it a lot since then, HS5955tg servo and stuff.
