Hello, my name is Felix and I live in Belgium. I recently found a Nitro RC car on the side of a road. I was not interessed in investing in fuel, ignition and a pull- or other starter.
So I Came up with a solution (if you are willing to drill a few holes). What you are going to need is: an electric motor and esc (brushed or brushless), a battery (li-po or nimh), a piece of rail (bent 90°) a pinion gear (I used a brass one), a couple of bolts (m3), something to pull thread (m3) and the gear at the end of the original engine.
