The VE is so so tempting. I wish I could just get the tires though, then I could slap them on my Mad Force to help take the edge off.

I'm wondering about the axles, if they aren't any wider than a wraith but able to take real 1/8 power they would be awesome to use for these RC mega trucks and most likely unbreakable under a wraith foff. Hopefully I'll see one in person soon without having to buy one.

Edited my first post, it seems this is available in Electric or Nitro.

these axles are beefy. i have a Mad Force VE on 3S, it'll do standing backflips and hit 40+.

Since we don't have videos yet is it like a savage in power? Or more controlled like an erevo?

Yes, I broke some parts. Not what you expect either. I broke both of the battery holders . Not sure how but thats the only weak spot I could find after running for over 2hrs and jumping it off and up everything I could find. Most stuff was well over 8' and I was running 3s and 4s. No over heating and no breakage that put a stop to all the fun. I would highly recomend this to anyone. I have more video comming soon and will get some of the big jumps on video this weekend if I get a chance to go back out.
