Default RE: Schumacher's Newest Rc - Manic



Hi guys; after a bit of advice.  I'm planning on doing a LiPo Brushless conversion on my Manic, I have just done a similar conversion on my Kyosho Blizzard, but obviously a 4wd monster is going to require a different motor and battery combo to a 1/12 crawler.  I just need to know what size motor (540/550 etc) would be suitable, what kV etc would be suitable for a monster.   I've had a look at the Velineon and Flux systems to try and get an idea but I'm still not sure.  Also, does anyone know if the Manic (or Havoc) will accept other spur gears; I can't find any matches for 24dp pinion gears apart from the ones for the nitro version and they don't seem like they would mount onto a brushless motor unless there is any kind of adaptor?  If anyone can give me some pointers that would be brilliant.
