Traxxas electric conversion

[frickenjoey]

Been looking for an easy way to convert that Slayer to a brushless? Check this out I ran in to it on the Flea Bay....looks kinda cool. Just pull that dirty nitro engine out put on a brushless and put it back in place of the engine.

I still wonder how it will hold up to the power of today's monster motors. Looks like the price went up $20 also.

I'll be darned I guess I missed it. Yeah it is tempting just to see what is could do....man a fat Neu would be crazy in my HPI MT2.....

Same as with a normal engine it looks....you would use the stock clutch shoes and bell.

i get that part how many rpms will a eletric motor pull cause you have to have the same as a gas

The only thing I don't like is it raises the CG with the motor on top of the output shaft. Other than that it seems like the easiest way to convert.

A fat NEU in your MT2 would be sick. Do it!

Depending on your motor and voltage, an brushless motor will have greater rpms and power.
