I can't wait to get mine. The only issue I see from messing around with the two out here will be paint design on that narrow body

The car looks good and I'm sure it will be just fine in regular hands.

I'm sure i'm overlooking it somewhere, and I know this is all metric hardware. However, getting into RC so I have almost no tools. Is there a list of hardware sizes used on the 22 so i can buy the exact wrenches I need ahead of time?

For nut drivers you will want a 5.5mm and 7mm

Well just ordered the Orion motor so now one last thing. Orion motor, savox servo and Tekin RS all need a home

Come on, let's release this thing early.

Shipping date

When I first placed my order for the 22 I thought the Horizon Hobby web site said shipping late February? Then last time I checked it changed to late March. Am I remembering correctly? I know delays happen, just wondering if anyone else remembers the date originally being in February.

That was the 4x4 your thinking of, the 22 was scheduled for March.

My understanding is diff balls are same size, just 14 of them instead of 12. Not sure on thrust bearing size.

The main Diff balls are 3/32" (same as XXX). The thrust balls are 2.0mm (5/64"). There are qty 14 of the 3/32" balls and qty 6 of the 2.0mm per diff.

Dan, may you be able to tell me the dimensions of the battery tray both in mid and rear engine format?

I'm trying to have Jeremy at MaxAmps spec me some custom built high output packs built for this car and he can't find dimension constraints. I told him if anyone would know, you would!

Thx in advance!
