Team Kassanova Scorpion mid-motor conv.

[annie_himself]

This was a Nitro XTM X-Cellerator. It is not just a electric conversion but a Mid-engine mounted electric truck. It started out as an idea and I found myself spending hours on it in my room. I am only 15 so spare me for not having a hard anoed chassis and motor mount but I do plan on getting those made. What do yall think of it so far?
Before:


In progress:





And getting closer to run:





New steering so I can run sidexside or Li-Po in the future:




After it was ran one night:


The truck now has an aluminum hold-down with a JRXS battery foam pad from my old car and the batts don't move at all.
Tell me what you think and all feed back is appreciated.

Nothing?

Are you sure you are 15?

Whenever I made stuff in my room at 15 it was always rubbish.

This looks cool.

I like the fans on the motor.

i would use some insulating material under the cells,if the heatshrink rubs off then the cells will short out on the chassis,especially since they arent secured firmly and used in offroad,they may chafe quite badly.

but keep up the work

Thanks I appreciate the comments.

The "insulation" as you say is just a big pre-filter that I had laying around, I cut it. The cells are now secured very firmly, they won't even move when I push them with my finger.
Yea, Im 15. lol
Any more words is mucho appreciated as well.

Edit:Plus, I'm going to get a chassis molded hopefully.

did you say this is a EP truck now?

It's very impressive.

How did you cut the metal e.t.c

Thanks,

Nice work
