I have an old Giga Crusher that I am going to convert to electric. I know some will say I'm stupid and that is ok, I don't mind being stupid.
The project will mostly be built with stuff I already have and some will be bought or fabricated. The plan was to keep everything as it was so it could be restored to nitro again.
This is how it used to look (not the actual one as I did not think of taking photos before disassembling)
This is how it looks now
The giga crusher engines, gearbox and everything unnecessary is removed. The gearbox I am going to use is from a BSD Utor 8E.
It did not come as a surprise it was not a direct fit so I had to remove the main chassi plate and will make a new one. I Have not ordered the plate yet and have not decided what material to use either. Aluminium as the stock plate or a carbon fiber plate.
The motor and ESC will be Team Orion Vortex 7 and Traxxas VXL-6S
