This is what I am just starting to build. I've got all the parts and an Ipanema body. It's about the same cost for me in parts at least but, I can always pull the motor out and drop it in a boat too.
New!!! Option 5
Totally revised with no gears to mess with, no servos for throttle/brake needed now. 47% of the moving parts and wasted weight ARE GONE! leaving you with a pure power option that doesn't strip out gears. Here are the facts: this combination runs 35mph per S-lipo used which equals 2S equals 70mph on this car! 3S equals 105mph! If you do your homework I have given you the platform that will absolutely run 150mph. I did not overload this kit with unnecessary pieces that you do not need. I know that many of you will be extremely happy to find this car on a 2S, 2P setup will run 70mph for 25 minutes and absolutely not overheat on a hot summer day. Many of you will see this is the first of its kind in its design and simplicity, however, we are using potentially a 4hp electric motor in this application so it is not necessary for those of you who will email or call to run 6S. This system is totally designed to run on a 2S, 2P system and offer extreme performance. Look for other models of this caliber to follow! Remember it was just 5 years ago when Fine Design offered the worlds very first converted nitro & gas vehicles to electric power as pointed out by R/C Car Action in some of the first brushless conversions we manufactured, which are still popular today. 3 available body styles you choose. The Option 5 system is also available in kit form for those of you who already have a GTII. Kit includes motor, drive shafts, u-cups, motor mounts and battery trays. ESC we have use in the Option 5 rtr car is the Castle Creations Monster Max which is more than ample to do the job (available separately)
