Granby Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 (edited) Got a e-revo brushless roller a while back, all standard but had a few mods planned for it Ordered a CC 2200 motor & MMM esc from the states, while i was waiting for them did a couple of things to the revo Front & rear sway bars Added HPI blast wheels with HPI gorliath tyres Motor & esc arrived in about 2 weeks so they were fitted along with a castle fan I did find that the motor does move a bit on the motor plate affecting the mesh, so after a little searching i found a rear motor support, that arrived in a couple of days from Germany and now the motor is firmly supported One last thing i've done is to do away with the body clips and secure the body shell with velcro only on the battery compartment covers, still use the body pins to locate the bodyshell Well i think that's it for now but i'm sure i will find something else to mod soon Edited November 29, 2010 by Granby 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's a much better way and quicker to put on & remove I did get taxed but not as much as maybe it should of been if you get my drift Edited November 29, 2010 by Granby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granby Posted November 30, 2010 Author Share Posted November 30, 2010 Put on a set of blast wheels with phatline tyres today to see what it looks like, they seem a bit small against the other set lol, should be good for a bit of car park bashing though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbr6fs Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Nice build Do you have any pics with the 3S Nano's fitted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granby Posted January 17, 2011 Author Share Posted January 17, 2011 Nice build Do you have any pics with the 3S Nano's fitted? What sort of pics do you want?, the nano's fit perfect in the battery compartments and all i had to do to them was fit the traxxas connectors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1uke Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 The first thing ur break is the plastic driveshafts. I keep breaking the steel traxxas upgrade versions with 6s! I Just ordered some hopefully more beefy cvds from AsiaTees Hobbies, plus a few other little bits. I'm amazed those batterys fitted a standard battery compartment. I got carried away and brought a set of turnigy 3s 5800mah 30c lipos which unfortunately don't fit to well as the door is a arse to shut now.

I don't know how you keep breaking CVD's, so far on 6S I've broken just 1 driveshaft, and that was in the snow. Loosen your slipper a bit... E-Revo's looking great mate!
