It’s not arrma

[Twoteccs]

But I got this truck for 100 bucks but arrma the only car I’ve had I did some research I think I’m missing a peace to make it have breaks and reverse any one know ????

If that's an old T-maxx conversion it looks like its missing the brake disc assembly.

I am seeing a servo for steering and a esc and a motor so unless the car had a extra servo for brakes or something like that I don't see a electronic that would do brakes. The front driveshaft is missing it looks like.

Pretty sure it's an MGT. I believe it has an internal 2-speed. If you take the trans apart and figure out how to remove one of the gears while locking the other so the oneway bearing isn't in play, then you will have brakes via the motor. Nitro's with 2-speeds typically have a OWB in them on first gear, so when 2nd engages, the 1st gear free spins with it. If they both are locked in at the same time, the transmission locks up.

Or, you have to add a throttle/brake servo, linkage, pads, brake disk, etc:

Will also need a splitter for your esc/receiver wire so you can run a servo and the esc off it. I've never done that, but in theory, you would set the esc to not have reverse, then install the servo and adjust the brake endpoint/linkage as needed.

Thank you that’s what I was thinking just wasn’t sure if the names of the servo linkage thing I tryd stop the gears but I knew I had to leave a gear out and I didn’t

I’m thinking of adding a center diff instead any thawts

Can you still find the center diff?

Is the a special center diff I have to use ??

I do not think adding a center diff to that is going to be the easiest task. It is going to require a bit of custom work. https://www.rctech.net/forum/monster-trucks/872991-ae-mgt-center-diff-brushless-conversion.html
This guy used to make the mounts https://www.ebay.com/itm/Thunder-ti...enter-diff-brushless-conversion-/254104713408
Parts including with the conversion:
Machined Alloy (7075) Μotor mount with center diff mount (2 pcs)
2pcs (m4 to m3 Spacers)
(No mounting screws)


You will need:
1.Center diff - i recomend a THUNDER TIGER MT4 OR TEAM ASSOCIATED RC8 center diff

2a)Center dogbones - i recomend kyosho inferno st center dogbones
#IS009 for the front one
#MA024 for the rear

In all honesty I think your best bet is to do a forward only conversion.

I hate not having reverse or brakes

can confirm associated mgt 8.0 converted to electric

Parts for these have become very difficult to source. There is a very active facebook group for these still. I parted out my rival (electric version) and I cleared just about enough to buy a brand new mojave exb, which I threw my castle and sanwa running gear from the rival into. Just saying, if it was my score for a hundred bucks, I'd be selling and moving towards a mojave or kraton...

Guess that's one way to get some use out of an old MGT!
