the prefered choice is Quark Monster Pro 125B Brushless Sensorless Speed Controller which is $275, that is a good esc. which can take 6cell lipo.

motor- the Feigao/Nemesis/Wanderer "XL" brushless motors in usually 7xl form are fine for it, thats $92 from rcmonster

battery is dependant on what you go for, maxamps and flightpower are the best
quick prices
Lipo 6300HV 4S3P 14.8V Pack $280
Lipo 6300HV 18.5V Pack $320
Lipo 10000mah 4S 14.8V Pack $250
Lipo 10000mah 5S 18.5V Pack $300
Lipo 10000mah 6S 22.2V Pack $350

for conversion take out any nitro bits so all that should be left is the steering servo and a receiver. mock up where everything will go, then get hold of some aluminum and make a motor mount. secure everything else, jobs a good 'un
You're correct about MambaMax, it's 3s. Thanks for mentionning the others.

The prices I gave were relative to what I understood to be the standard racing package from rctech.
1. 4s batteries (and ok the Mamba can take it with mods but you can also read that quite a few fried nevertheless...)
2. NeuMotor type 1512 http://www.neumotors.com/20061222/15...es%20data.html
3. A manufactured conversion kit like this http://www.rcproductdesigns.com/OneEigthScalekits.htm

Now you can always to cheaper... and maybe not worse after all!
