As for a FT version of this, heck, anything is possible. If this flys off the shelf and the demand is there for a FT version, you never know.

To me, looking at it who knows, for the crowd that would want a center diff, probably easier to come up with something that could drop in a center diff in this format than our SC10 4x4 format (as far as a fluid filled center diff).

I'm not impressed. I still love my sc10 4x4. I've been running a loose blown out 1/8 track. We've had a pionts series this summer (8 races) and after this last race coming up. I'll land 1st or 2nd out of 30 guys.

I've done some unconventional things to my truck to get it to handle right on the track. But it's done me well.

lol



For me at least, depending on how the chassis is setup, I wouldn't be surprised if you could see a company make a graphite / alloy chassis for this vehicle and have an option to drop in a center diff from some vehicle if the demand is there.

Curious what the price is going to be on this in comparison to the AE SC10 4x4 RTRs.

Whats your setup and what track conditions exactly do you have? Could really help people out in similar conditions.

Considering this is a entry level kit in comparison to AE's flagship SC10 4x4, to me at least doesn't look too bad, depending on price.

Is it just me or does it look very "non AE"?? Almost looks like they went the route of Losi and just decided to have an 8yr old kid in Taiwan assemble it. It just seems odd to me that AE seems hard pressed to not just go with the flow of what is working, or with what you know the team guys want. If they could make that truck it seems like it would be just as easy to go with a moved fwd motor, dual belt drive with fluid center dif and be done with it......

It looks non AE because it's a reworked thunder tiger chassis.

This "qualifier series" is probably just going to be entry level

Definitely looks entry level. All the parts look a
Bit weak.

Funny how entry level cars are so cheap an weak. When entry level people need the most durability they can get. Haha

Maybe if you dumped about 450$ into upgrades it would be worthy
