| I got one coming in the post. The axles are different, much beefier. Also they straighten out the whole drive train so there is much more power transfer to the axles than the original 4x4 and 6x6.
Also notice that it is 1/12 (Not really, but for some strange reason they are all listed as 1/12. |

| Basically other than the original one, they have straighten the driven train in all other iteration. Too much power was lost on the lateral movement alone. |

| I am using the battery that comes with the truck. They suck but they are odd shape and I don't want to buy another battery just for it.
The ESC itself won't run the lights. I just hook up the LEDs to the receiver which is powered by the ESC. So when you power it on the LEDs will come on. |
