how much money would it tack to make a revo in to a e-revo not includind a esc or a motor?

Are you going to use the stock chassis, or an aftermarket one like the gorilla g3r? What transmission do you plan to use?

- Gorilla G3R chassis: $325 (exclude if using stock)
- E-maxx Tranny: $80 (exclude if using stock)
- Motor mount: $60 (exclude if using e-maxx tranny)
- Batteries: $80-$250 depending on if you get nimh or lipo.
- Battery holders: $20-40 depending on how you decide to fabricate them.
- BEC: $20-40 (exclude if you are using a receiver pack)
- Pinions: $10-15 each. You should use hardened steel, which is why its so expensive.

You can do it for around $200-$250 by buying a roller off ebay.

i bought an e maxx for 60 bucks and i can just use the tranny out of that? when my os 18 quits, i might do that.

u dont need a gmaxx chassis or battery holders. a motor (7xl) will run u 70 bucks

if u want the best esc, go with the Mamba Max, it will run you 115

As for batteries, its up to ur wallet. Lipos are amazing, but it wil unload ur wallet. 14c NI-mn is less expensive but still performs well. im doin a NTB conversion and im using 2 7 cell IB4200 packs.

The only thing about the mamba is it will only handle 12 cells, so if you are a speed freak I would get something rated for more cells.

Some of you guys are way around the question, he just wants to know how much it would take to convert a Revo to accept an electric motor.

Edit: A nice Quark ESC is far better matched for this application then a Mamba Max.

not neccisarily the mm is way more adjustable than the quark, and i dont think he will be running more than 14 cell.
