i think everything went according to plan you just wanted everyone to buy a new kit

just joking

, i know stuff happens. between buying a new kit and converting my old one i was looking at around 150, in my opinion the extra shocks, diffs,axles and of course all the plastic parts was worth way more than the 150$, or i could just sell my converted nitro and still only have 200 into a brand new kit instead of 400 into my old one. hopefully the kits start shipping soon

and hopefully there will be some more info out on the magic "tapered" pistons

I QC'ed the parts at the same time as the kits so those should go out at the same time.

I am trying to verify that IL got the kits and got them checked in right now. Then I can get QC passed and they can start shipping after that.

So the Servo Tray is the same as the 2.0 SCTE, Does that mean the RX box might work on the 2.0 SC as well ?

There is a a little more room on the 8ight chassis then the SCTE chassis due to side guards and just overall width. I am sure with some work you can "get it to fit" as the bolt pattern is the same but no it is not a direct fit I am told.
