Can you provide some info on the benefits of going to the single battery setup versus what was a caster standard of the dual lipo setup?

good stuff. Do you know when you will have pictures with common 1/8 racing electronics, preferrably ones that are bigger than just say the Tekin RX8 like the hobbywing offering.

A lot of new neat features but one of the ones that stood out to me was the battery tray as it was made to take a single 4S lipo or 2 sticks

when you get it all done I'd be curious about the weight balance front to back and side to side.

I really like how they have slotted the tray so you do not have to worry about stressing any of the battery cables.
