  1. Bashing
I have a Revo 3.3. I bash on it alot, already replaced the front a-arms cause i'm a liitle to hot footed on the gas and a several other parts. But i am noticing tht i always have to tune it everday to get it running right and it doesn't run very long and i have to work on it somemore, dont get me wrong when i get it right, it runs it's lil butt off, but i would think that electric would be a whole lot easier and meaning more fun time running it instead of working on it.

So i was wondering what it would take to convert to electric, and i am one that doesn't half ass anything i do, so i want the biggest, fastest, meanest set-up you can put together on one of these. I am really mechanically minded so putting it all together wouldnt be a problm for me, just need to knw wht i need to buy first and were to start.

I would really appreciate any help i can get.

Thanks,
ArkDrvr
 
Tekno RC makes a conversion kit.

You would still need a esc, motor and batts.

Honestly, you are better off selling what you have and buying the Brushless EREVO since the conversion, motor and esc will set you back close to $500. The Brushless EREVO comes with a Mamba Monster ESC and basically the same motor. All you would need is a set of batts.

Yeah, you could sell it and buy the brushless or buy the chassis and transmission off ebay, everything thing else fits...
