Yes, I use the Savox 1257 TG, plenty of real estate...

My Reventon Pro and Spektrum SR300 barely fit when I did a dry fitting. Not sure if I will be able to make them work without using the tray.

could always mount the rx on its side... instead of to its bottom.

I would report his add to ebay. They have rules for scammers like those guys and if you guys dont report it theyll keep doing it. I would leave neg feedback after you get it.

I personaly closed my ebay account after years being on there recently due to ebays fees for sellers and all the scammers

4 hours and 15 minutes start to finish. Just have electronics to finish up tomorrow before hitting the track Wednesday for some racing! The build was absolutely incredible. The changes made to the B5 are top notch!

Yeah... 5mm ID shim. I think the better solution may be to trim the axle length a bit. depends on if the crush sleeve is too long or the axle.

Got a good start on my build today. Like everyone has been saying, I'm super impressed with the plastics and the overall quality of the kit. It went together really quickly- only thing I have left is wiring and waiting on some turnbuckles in the mail. It's not pictured, but the thin piece of padding they give you to cover the servo wire under the battery is a nice touch. What I love about this kit so far is the fact that it feels like I've built it before, yet there are some really nice updates that just make it better. Love how low the electronics are mounted and how the access to the transmission case has been made even easier than it was before. Gear cover is so much easier to put on now. Way to go AE!

Its the picture, the shock is parallel to the tower.

I took the picture slightly from the back side of the shock, with the shocks mounting angle it looks angled to the tower (if that makes any sense).

Ordered mine from Tower on Friday for $205/free shipping just got the notice that it will arrive from Reno tomorrow. Not bad.

Will be curious if i like it better than my Centro indoors or if mid motor is the only way to go anymore. Going to put a 10.5 in it and race 2wd mod for the first time, so it won't be apples to apples. At least that way I won't be spending extra cash to upgrade it out of the gate ...

Nick Wattlet from AE said he was beating his centro times with the b5 at his local track.

What length sensor cable fits the best? I never ran my electronics inline on my b4.
