Whoa. Very nice with the servos laid down. The upper plate should be replaced with carbon fiber though.

The upper deck will indeed be carbon fiber for the pro kit. The as-yet-unnamed car pictured is a hand built prototype from the Shanghai toy and hobby show this weekend. As you can see, there's still lots of work to be done, but it gives people an idea of what it will look like in person.

I like the way you see things in a simple manner, and that's the way it should be.

The rear and the front reminds me of the STS Mad dog 1:10th car, even the "roll-over" looks the same, not to mention the 2-speed spurs!

I agree with you that it does look kinda "square" .. and that tank looks huge!

Must be belt driven ... the pulleys are evident although the belts are not there.

Who is "cams"?

Why "Josh"? Is this Josh's new product from his new company with Spashett?

Looks very much like a Thunder Tiger too me. But thats just the colour of the alloy chassis and radio plate gives that effect.
