Great to hear, and that actually looks very cool imo! :thumbsup:

BenStephenson 02-12-2010 11:08 AM

Cool:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Any idea of release date.:D

Looks v.nice, but in mid-motor configuration looks very tight for electrics.

I can see it accepts saddle and stick batteries, anybody know if it accepts 6 cell nimh packs?

:)

There is space for electrics in mid motor all behind the servo if you use a short stubby servo such as Spektrum/Savox etc. Assuming 6 cell nimh packs are the same size as Lipo stick then in arear motor configuration yes they would fit

Was supposed to at EPR on Sunday but i think the snow will put that on hold, may have to do a few laps of the kitchen instead ; - )

That is a neat looking car.

Does this mean we should expect a new 4wd at some point too...?

If you look closely at the front wishbones and front hubs there appears to be room for driveshafts :cool:

It's nice to see Losi back in the game :thumbsup:
