The way it should have been in the first place!
The new wheel & drive shaft set-up looks great!

It did make the transfer for people with other micro vehicles to this easier to swallow. If it had come with this setup as like now, it would have been harder to convince people to change.

I should note, the m18 "normal" kit will still be sold for with the standard/older sub rim system.

This kit is focused on those wanting "the next phase" for competition or upgrades.

I wonder if the hubs will retrofit on the older... I wouldn't want to give up my Motek Chassis....

Yes! You will be able to buy the new universals with hex, and nuts separately. There are also different foams compounds available as well as a release of a new rim for rubbers planned.

Looks good. I too like the new hub/rim setup.

I need new nuts.

I just was informed the first batch is shipping. That still isn't taking into account customs and distribution for this time of year. So it closer than you think. Best to pre-reserve one like Thai3g_Eclipse if your interested with the hobby shop of your choice.

If you need help finding a location where you are. Check the dealer/distributor database.

You only really bash, so a carbon fiber chassis isn't so good of a choice.
