Update June 2017
All files containing V2 are the updated files. The original files will be left.
Updates
Added inserts for M3 nuts into the motor mount and battery trays. (No more screwing directly into the 3d printed parts
Added a brace to go over the servo (No drilling holes in the chassis).
Improved clearance for the radio & antenna.
The assembly instructions are for the most part the same. The lower battery plate gets mounted, then the upper battery plate needs to be glued to the lower. Then the Servo cover can be aligned and glued in place. There is no need to drill holes in the chassis.
End Update
This is a brushless conversion kit for the Traxxas Jato.
The battery box is 43mm * 135mm. I used two of these batteries in parallel: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__11949__Turnigy_nano_tech_3300mah_3S_35_70C_Lipo_Pack.html
The RX box is 32mm * 49mm.
There is a significant amount of post processing and assembly required before these parts can be mounted in the truck.
