alright I got one of these on the way with a variety of upgrades based on the listing and pics.
This will be a vehicle used on carpet and I think the previous owner was using it on something high traction as he has the hard arms on the car and has a laydown transmission as well included.
At the moment right now, what would be considered one of the better carpet setups to look at, even, better, if its a b6d laydown setup?
Once it arrives will give it the usual run through, but I know it has the MIP puck system including the stock ball diff, the track has decided however to go back to mod apparently. Is there a limit to where the MIP pucks can safely be ran motor wise? I am looking at most an 8.5 motor, but may go to something like a 10.5 or 13.5 since its small.
And if I go ball diff, I am assuming no funny issues on carpet, just that gear is more consistent?
Lastly, if using the slipper setup on carpet with something like mckune or rcshox style pads, anyone compare how they feel in comparison to a slipper eliminator?
thanks before hand for all your help.

If you have an 8.4v fan you'll get the most out of it from soldering directly to the +/- on the esc. Otherwise if you just go through the receiver I think it's only 5v. The only downside (if you want to call it that) of hard wiring to the esc is that it will run as soon as you plug your battery in.

Just a carbon plate in place of where the weight plates go. I'd guess so he can mount his esc and receiver on it and remove them without having to retape.

Got mine in the mail.
Haven't run it yet, waiting for a new track to open soon...
Quality 7/10 - Looks pretty sketch thin around the captured joint. Who knows maybe its fine.
Fit 7/10 With the battery post in forward hole your basically left with the back 2 holes on the brace. Hole 2 is a tight fit (twss), and rubs brace. Hole 1 forces battery full forward.

I bought one of these B6D kits at the beginning of the month the build went together flawlessly. Such a good value for your money the stuff they give you in this kit.
With the changes they made from the B5m, you can tell this is a brand new platform.
