    Default Has anyone built and converted a Dumas Big Swamp buggy to electric?

    So has anyone built and converted a Dumas Big Swamp buggy to electric recently? The canal I live on is just full of weeds in the summer. I purchased one of those small cheap Hobbywing Swamp Buggy's but I'm not impressed with it even after modifications. I just purchased a Dumas Big Swamp buggy kit and plan on building it this winter so looking for recommendations for electric motors, props, esc's, batteries, and such.

    I was thinking a 3 blade prop, some type of out-runner motor on 4s. Its 31 inches long and 17.5 wide.
