That is what I am working on. I am using a solid aluminum rod for the rear axle and making a hub to mount spur gear, and mounting the engine sideways.
I don't know how well it will do, but I will find out soon enough.

Not at the moment. My machine will be here tuesday. I think on the chassis I will use two thin sheets of aluminum for the sides and make tiny mounts to bolt the sides together. I will post pics asap.

You are talking about a direct drive trans but, for nitro, correct?

Very cool idea! Post some pics or start a build thread!
