JQ THE Car Tekno V4 Electric Conversion
( All pictures are clickable and will enlarge )
Hi All. I decided to test out the JQ Electric conversion by RC-Monster and i really liked it Soooo I decided to take it a little further and go with the Tekno V4 Complete conversion. Here is a little information on the JQ Tekno Conversion kit first. This is the Tekno RC V4 Brushless Electric Conversion Kit, and is intended for use with JQ Products THE Car. This V4 Kit for THE Car is different from the standard V4 conversions. It features a unique motor mount design that allows the use of a standard pinion gear or Traktion Drive system, depending on which direction the center differential is installed. Additionally, it retains the use of the differential pinion gear outdrives and uses Tekno dog bones. Features:
Kit Includes:
Ok now for where it all started. Well i removed the RC Monster Electric conversion from my JQ Buggy and gave that to my old boy who has also gone electric now. It was time for my buggy to have a little update with some new plastics and a few replacement parts as their over a season old sooooo i took a look at my spares box and realised that i have enough parts to build a compelte new car ( well almost - needed a few bits ) So i started the build from scratch from bags of parts from my spares box. Now i have the Chasis and all the electric conversion kit parts all i needed was the Front and Rear end components, oh and the centre diff. So now i can pop all the Nitro parts back in my old JQ and have the best of both worlds with Electric and Nitro. The build went really well, the conversion kit fits excellent. Also fitted with this conversion was the Tekno Electro-Traction-Clutch system. Basicly this lets you use a standard Clutch Bell and Clutch instead of a pinion gear. Fitted to the electric motor shaft is a special flywheel enabling you to use the above. Along with the New car i had to go with the new wing. The Wing skin done by TKR " Mark Kay " for the Memorial race for Dez Chand in January. So my current Setup is:
Running with the Lightened Outdrives, Center Diff cups and Rear Alloy hubs.

What spur/pinion are you using for the JQ conversion? I am using a 2650KV Tekin motor and I am not sure what gear ratio I should run. Thank you very much for the help!
