Default my hyper 8 pro BL conversion

Started conversion late jan this year was in no big rush to complete so little by little got going







conversion kit-- hobby pro/ansmann
fusion battery tray
Ezrun 150A
Trackstar 2560kv
Castle Creations 10A bec

As theres a few threads on conversions picked up a tip or two which should make my conversion a breeze, being i'll be putting back to nitro never cut radio plate used some carbon had laying about for servo plate/ rx mount, i'll be making up a extended plate for diff housing so esc has good mount. Opted for twin tray as one tray with 4s hampers shell,. Motor mount been dremaled attack so can use larger pinions

with motor mount reversed mounted on spacers so motor clears chassis





battery trays mounted



Had to find ideal location for esc which is at rear between battery trays, so grabbed a carbon fibre top plate had knocking around an cut off piece for mounting plate an make up spacers so too clear rear centre shaft.



mounting posts
