Is it possible?

[chelseafc385]

I've been thinking about buying another off-road truck, but i wanted it to be nitro, then i thought, since I've got a Rage that i hardly ever use because i dont want to take it out bashing because i only get about 10 minutes run time, maybe it would be possible to change it into a nitro truck. Since this would hopefully cost me less than going out and buying a whole new truck.

So here's my question:

Does anyone here know whether it is possible to make an XTM Rage into a nitro?

If it is could you post a list of what parts i would need to take off and what parts i would need to buy, thanks.

I really don't think its possible. Electric to nitro conversions are near impossible in my opinion. There are a few micro nitros out there that would be just as expensive as a conversion (if you could find a way to do it). some suggestions...

I dont want to spend that much money on a 1:18 scale. i only wanted to make the Rage nitro because i thought it would be cheaper than buying a T-maxx or a Revo. I'll just have to wait and save for a T-maxx, since they arnt that expensive anymore.

Thanks for the help!

I've had more fun with my 1/18 than anything else.....then again, it is one of my fastest rigs.

I do like my Rage, its just that i dont like to use it off-road because its so small that it rolls a lot and then i have to go and flip it back over.

I might be selling it soon, so if anyone is interested let me know.
