At least the wheels should hold a little better with the updated hex. Hopefully!

Actually.. Dual slipper, 32p gears, HD drive shafts, molded interior.. Looks like a step in the right direction.. Not a fan of the body though.

Just seen it on YouTube , nice timing as I'm looking to get my first wraith once a mate has paid me for the honcho he is having off me.

Wonder why they don't update the kit version to 32pitch dual slipper and HD driveshaft?

That battery may be a challenge to install inside that body with it bolted on in 4 places.


They gave this one the Deadbolt treatment to drop the cost. The low cost ESC has to be a huge factor in the price drop.

They are not showing the updated hex, they are still showing the pin drive in the instructions.

I would like the interior for my current wraith, should be lighter and have plenty of room underneath.

Maybe if I didn't already have one. Still waiting for Axial to update ANY of their rigs with batteries located where people actually put them. I know the kids want RC stuff for Christmas and at least one wants a Wraith. She's pretty much set on the Poison Spyder though. I do actually like the looks of the body and covering that station wagon rear cage...that once again...most people change.

They look cut out to me. I doubt that body will last long like that

Hmmmmm....

Ooops, didn't look at the instructions, just went by this:

"Utilizes new 2x11mm pins for added strength. Updated plastic hub adapter to eliminate slop and capture the new 2x11mm pin."
