Default Differences between 501x and 511

Does anyone have both models? I would like to know if there were any changes between the front and rear gearbox areas and layout. Would stuff used on a 501 fit onto a 511 such as the alloy stuff?

Alot of Lipo users are running the 511.
Well I use high capacity nimh 5000 cells in my 501x worlds edition.
I also use some 3600's that I have laying around.
B44 battery tray does fit the 501x without the body being in the way of the thumb screws.

Will these get me a tamiya sponsorship. I'm kidding.
The two big races I attended recently, with my 501x Worlds Edition.
Obviously I need more of these. 2 might not do it.
As you guys can see the B-main plaques are smaller than the A-main plaques.
I plan on hitting the state race and the winterblast every year.
