Hello,
Last night I decided after seeing a few converted buggies I would give it a try. So first thing I did was look into electronics for it.
Lipoly's: (2) TrueRC's 4000mAh 11.1V 3S1P packs
Motor: Neu 1512/2D Brushless Motor.
Controller: Undecided.
My starting base vehicle is an Ofna 9.5. ALOT of these stock parts will be replace with others from other buggies or custom machined. I have already replaced the stock a-arms with those off of the Ofna CR. I have decided that I will CAD the whole vehicle to a very detailed point(that is why I have only gotten this much done in the rendering so far). I hope to get everything to their exact measurements so I know where exactly everything will work, and if needed where I can move around stuff to get it to work. My plans for the buggy is first for run time, and second for speed. I would still like to have a even amount of both. Is 65mph aiming too high? I put some numbers into the speed calculator here on the site and I was around 85MPH with all the gearing correct and everything. I just dont think when it comes down to it I will be near that. Still have alot of Rendering to do still.
*Note* Resizing them took away a little detail in the renderings
