New to nitro and electric

Quote

Post by Ridge Runner » Wed May 29, 2013 6:08 pm

Just started playing around with rc with my grand kids. My brother gave me a black tub rc10gt about a year ago that I've been trying to learn on. Thanks for all the info on this site, saved my butt a couple of times.

The boys and I are having fun with the GT, two losi micro-t's and a t-maxx clone that was given to the 12 year old. I'm on now looking at how to tune the GT. I'm loving it, just wondering why it took me 54 years ( minus the years before rc ) to see how much fun it can be.

Welcome, Ridge Runner. Enjoy that time with your grandkids! I'm sure they'll remember it fondly in the future.

My search skills might be failing me, but what is involved in converting a nitro RC10DS into an electric DS?

Maybe need:
B or C stamp chassis
Buggy stealth gearbox
Motor plate
Rear shock tower
Rear bulkhead
battery cup

Anything else?

It looks like son is keepin' it nitro after all. 😁 An electric DS in need of some cleanup is going to find it's way to me after all.

So I've always loved these buggies but getting an electric one always shoots past my budget. I've seen some nitros go cheaper and wondered what would be involved in converting a Nitro to electric?

Check out Lars´(HCP 22) awesome build.

First post

I picked up an Integy Front Bulkhead for a Nitro Rustler #T6755 (aluminum), for $20.99

I needed one for the Stampede VXL 2wd (would have been #T7952), and that's all they had other than stock plastic.

It looked pretty close to the Traxxas stock...

Last post

Lowes did not have a very large Metric selection, but I did find a 3mm machine screw (slotted round head).
I would have preferred a socket cap or phillips, but that's all they had. I went with a length that just protrudes thru the show...

I have converted a Chinese nitro buggy (1/10 scale) into an electrical powered rally car, without a kit conversion.

The first thing is to disassemble the nitro engine, brakes, exhaust pipe, throttle servo and nitro tank:

The motor mounting...

Hey everyone,

After seeing so many amazing models I thought it would be extremely rude not to share my two classic cars.

First off my Boscat 4x4 rebuilt from a R&D car Schumacher sold me back in about 2003 by the factory as they couldn't supply...

Cool project! That is a lot of aluminum on that truck. Did you get the aluminum parts back in the day? Is it GPM parts?
