Got the reciever tucked under the esc. Still waiting for the spur assembly and pinion now.

overall the brushless build was way easier than the nitro build. I'm really glad I was able to put the lipos in between the tvp's. I'd hate to cover up the flm tvp's.
 
Nice looking rig ya converted there Tweaked.... I hope ya have a bit of video when is all running...
 
Nice conversion! Good to see people fabbricating and thinking outside the box with their mods! Definitely looking forward to the vids of it driving.
 
Any chance you can show a pic of where you have the steering servo mounted? I wanted to put my batteries up there also, cause I have the same type hardcase batteries, but could not figure out where to put the servo. I have the TCS red tvp's and would like to show them off also. lol
 
Here's how I installed my steering servo using the flm mounts. I mounted it on the side of the tvp

Thank you Tweaked. I knew there had to be something missing from my plate kit. Just emailed FLM. I need those servo mounts.
 
So I decided to convert my other savage to brushless. This one is going to be a center diff conversion.

More to come once I get the rest of the pieces. I plan to run my lipos up front on top in the center same as my other savage.
 
Looking good Tweaked! Can you give us your parts list for that center diff conversion?
 
I went with the alza center diff, hot racing 48t spur gear, robinson racing 11t pinion, hpi savage rdlogic alum diff cup, hpi savage diff gears and flm drive cups with 5000k diff fluid

Who makes those diff mounts and chassis braces? Integy? FLM?
 
I'm sorry I'm not sure what parts your referring too. The center diff kit is alza
chassis brace if your talking about the skid plate that's flm or the purple braces those are integy.

I'm sorry, when you said alza center diff I assumed you meant just the diff. Now I see that it is a kit, the parts I asked about are in that.
