My main concern is something that I can't do much about until I make some serious changes. I had to reverse the motor rotation as the transmission is a 180 flip. The truck is going to react differently mid air jumps to throttle\brake corrections. The new X Factory vehicles have a 4th gear in the trans to make up for this.Bongo Fury wrote:Keep us posted. I know some X Factory guys, might be able to call on them for advice if needed. I'm guessing that turning will be the least of your worries.
I guess if it seems to be a serious problem, I can just move the motor plate to the opposite side of the trans case, and make some new mounts to space it correctly on the opposite side.
But again, I really have so little money in this little project. Truck\radio\esc\motor cost me 143$ shipped on eBay. I bought a 10$ Axial battery hold-down to secure the battery. That's it.
I'm running my DX3S Rx in the truck now, as I pulled the RTR radio out of this, and put it in one of my kid's Slash's.
