I think you actually posted about these a while back. Or it was put in one of the other CrossRC threads

I was eyeing the demon but when I saw the these, I figured I’d wait for it but holy cow, I’m going insane waiting. The only thing that irks me is no CMS which was an issue with me for the demon and was hoping they would rectify with this one but alas no, other than that it’s sweet unless I’m missing something I can’t see.

Don't let the lack of CMS deter you if you think they're cool. I was thinking the same way but ended up with a Demon anyway because I couldn't resist the body. It helps a lot to use an all-black servo and servo horn so it doesn't call attention to itself. Then with some droop in the suspension, the servo becomes even harder to see.

Get one.

Great point, black it all out or convert it to CMS?

I’m no expert in this hobby but if it was possible to convert it to cms, what about the PH bar, Would it need it? With the motor front and center I’m not sure how much space is left.

What do you think of the kit? Good or bad quality materials? What version sP4 is this: A, B or C?

Well, I got sp4 c model and the quality is pretty good but as always there’s room for improvement. 1. Motor mount is plastic. 2. Front shock tower is intergrated with the inner wheel well so that’s plastic as well. Motor attaches to this also. 3.doors and tailgate do not open.
4. In some descriptions cross says it comes with a tarpaulin but it didn’t, sent an email to cross us and they said may have screwed up and they sent an inquiry to the home office. Have yet to hear anything more.
everything else seems pretty good, going into the painting stage so as far as how it performs, that will be awhile.
