See the attachments. I saw these small ads on BigSquid RC today, but they were quickly removed...

1/16 scale Fazon and Granite?

Didn’t expect to see a smaller scale from them. I’d guess the Squids jumped the gun with the ads before Arrma was ready. Wouldn’t be first time it’s happened.

Cool. But wasn't the Fazion part of the design that got removed due to the lawsuit? Maybe the mini doesn't have lay-down shocks?

From the very limited info, these look to be a "typical" shock arrangement both fore and aft.

Looks like this is the pre-release video for it if you ask me:

They appear to take lithium ion AA batteries:

Seems like these are high-end toy grade models. Which is pretty awesome actually - great for the youngsters.

The battery tray can also be removed for a standard sized NiMh or 2S Lipo pack.

Not AA's, but the slightly bigger 18650. That is a very common cell in the Vape community, easy to find. MAH up to about 3000. Most are 20a or 30a max, I think. I am thinking this is the real reason why Arrma lets you run them 2s2p or 2s3p configuration - to get the amp per cell load down...

Just ordered one. I'll post some pictures when it arrives later this week. I got this for my son to mess with as a first RC.

Granite or Fazon?
