Looks v.nice, but in mid-motor configuration looks very tight for electrics.

I can see it accepts saddle and stick batteries, anybody know if it accepts 6 cell nimh packs?

There is space for electrics in mid motor all behind the servo if you use a short stubby servo such as Spektrum/Savox etc. Assuming 6 cell nimh packs are the same size as Lipo stick then in arear motor configuration yes they would fit

That is a neat looking car.

Does this mean we should expect a new 4wd at some point too...?

Hello all,

What a beautiful car, are all the options needed for both motor positions included in the box?
Are those big bore shocks?
i think I just found my new 2 wd car for next season......

Greetings

Hans

If you look closely at the front wishbones and front hubs there appears to be room for driveshafts

It's nice to see Losi back in the game
