I think we're so excited about this release because with as many new scalers as we've gotten recently there hasn't been much innovation or increased scale-ness. Scale is stale. ©

It's crazy to think we haven't had a scale, plastic housing transmission at this point. Scale and performance? I'm in!

I'm excited to see more! Looks like this rig is going to be a winner!

I'm really liking the new plastic scale trans! This will be a great lower cost option to get a scale driveline if it is released separately.

Unis and Cvds get the same angle roughly before the start of binding. But you can clearence a uni to get more angle before it starts to bind. Once a uni is ground for angle clearence, it is no longer stronger than a cvd made of the same material.

Ok that's it.
NOT pre ordering the enduro (yet?).
Going to see if I can grab this thing, depending on how much my family loves me for my birthday in JUNE ($$$?)

This rig is screaming for an early bronco body! (Or maybe the new proline ram charger???)

I'm all about compatibility. You can expect 100% backward compatibilty with bumpers, body post locations etc...

All machined steel gears inside.

Will you be offering a scale motor as an option for this truck at any point?

The only times I really have was when Traxxas released the vellinuim brushless set-up. They were really secretive about. Just showed a large v on their home page. At the time everyone was a little upset about it. It did turn out to be one of the best all around set up.

The second time was with the trx-4. Huge change for Traxxas.

And now it is ssd. Really looking forward to seeing all the additional things we don’t see are

I will tell you what you dont get in this kit: body, bumpers, wheels & tires.

Why not?

It's a builders kit and you already know/have what body, wheels and tires you want to use. So no point in me making you pay more for stuff you dont want.

Thanks for this, the update I was looking for! Now we know just what to put together in anticipation of this build!

Perfect! A "real" builder's kit with crap you don't need. I wouldn't mind included bumpers, but if they are SCX10 compatible then most of us have those and they are more than plentiful.

Perfect! Can't wait for this one. Trans looks tasty and a very welcome innovation.

Since you're in the UK, will this be set up for RH drive?
