Here it is. I really like the motor mount being separate to the layshaft mount. By the way, according to RedRC, it is called a 401 not a 410.

With very thick oil it would give better off power steering compaired to a spool and not diff out like a loose diff on power. I have run something similar and in certain situations is fast.
