Project 'Non-smOkin' Blog - Electric 8th Hong Nor
Here's my build diary so far of my electric X1CR conversion.
Its nothing like Jimmy standards but hopefully help as a resource for others looking to build a nitro electric conversion. Things have come on a long way since i started the project - there were no 'off the shelf' conversion kits available, now there are several and even one full electric kit! I will add to the blog in the thread, if anyone has any questions feel free to ask ! Last edited by James; 17-11-2008 at 07:06 PM. |

Bit of waffle i put together for anyone interested about my electric Hong Nor (.pdf)
http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=4...db6fb9a8902bda I ran it at the JConcepts Clash in the States, qualified 3rd and finished 4th so it went pretty well. There are loads of conversions on the market now but when i started my project there were hardly any available. I will write a bit more soon about what i've learnt more recently. |
