Default Monster trucks SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!

JK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MONSTER TRUCKS RULE BEYOND BELIEF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!
Amyways, for Christmas I am getting a graphite transformation of my electric Evader ST leaving my other plastic assembled Evader behind. I want to do some hardcore bashing with it and im thinking about transforming my old evader to a monster truck. I know that I need some longer shocks and big wheels, but anybody have any other cool ideas how to transform my evader to a monster truck??? I might invest some $$$ in this so make yor ideas good!



Thanks, Shredder111

It's not gonna be a "monster truck", Its gonna be a stadium truck with big tires. You could put bigger shocks on the front if you wanted too, not sure as to what it would do. Rear already has xx-long shocks. Get Pro-line masher 2.2's for tires. If you wanna go all out, go for a brushless motor like the novak models.

In all honesty the best thing to do is buy a MT...sadly the time and money you will put into the Evader will add up to near a new truck.

If you plan to purchase a brushless setup, don't touch to novak like said ScMc, pay little more and go with killer setup like the Schulze controller and Kontronic motor. It's little $$$ more but this thing RIP[X(]

I'had a Schulze U-FORCE 75 and a Kontronic Twist 47 in my xxx-t and with good 3300 batteries, it's unbelievable. And the runtime is very good.

This setup blow the novak 3 times.

Good luck!

I was giving an example when I said "like the novak models" . Also, I see nothing wrong with novak, they're well-known in the industry and their brushless motors are by no means slow.[&:]

NOVAK
Word, Novak electronics are horrible. Either setup with a different BL system, or buy a new MT . Novak's BL system is so slow its beyond belief, I wasted good money on it.

The only novak product I have never had any problems with is the stock E-maxx EVX speed controller, I have had so many problems with other novak products
