e-Electric Conversions > Hirobo Shuttle Challenge conversion?

I've got a Shuttle Challenge that was used for a magazine article and then passed on to me that has only flown a few times when the reviewer did it.

I've been reading the threads in the archive about various Shuttle conversions and still have some questions.

I've seen reference to a mount that allows the motor to be mounted to the existing clutch assembly. Where are these sold? I can't find them anywhere.

What is the difference between the shuttle challenge and the other shuttle versions? Are the parts interchangable? I don't have a manual for the shuttle challenge and there doesn't seem to be one online, but there are shuttle xxx manuals listed. Same thing generally?

All newbie questions since my background is airplanes and my life as a full size heli pilot doesn't offer me much here ;-)

Thanks,
Greg

Chris,

What motor/pinion/battery/ESC are you using on your Shuttle conversion? How do you attach the motor to the drive system and still keep the clutch? TIA!
