Yeah, sorry all that I didn't post the name as well. It was on FB. Should fit like a kit body if it holds true to Pro-line body quality.

Nice, what type of blue is that?

The hexes themselves are exactly the same width, I measured mine with calipers.
Is the pin slot depth different or something...?

Not a dumb question just one that has been answered a few dozen times in this thread already so it annoys people that it keeps getting asked over and over.

B4.X hex wheels fit and the turnbuckles are the same as the B4 so the Ti turnbuckles for it (OEM or aftermarket) will work perfectly and obviously are out there.

Built mine up last night. Very impressed with everything, the arms have more gurth and look great. The fit and finish is phenominal. If somebody would have told me I would have to beat in the front hinge pins of an AE car a year ago, I would have laughed at them.

Great job AE, maiden voyage tomorrow, all I have left to do is shocks, and electronics.

Coming from my serpent which is superb quality, I can say that I would put them both in the same tier.

I'm sure its preference, but I see in the manual that the esc mounts on the right side of the vehicle and receiver on the left. In some of the team pics, it is reversed. Any thoughts as to which way you will mount it?

Well, the only real factor would be balance. I dont have 4 scales to check the balance of the car, but that is what you would need. If you wanted to use the shelf, you could dead center the esc and receiver.

Mine came in at 1536. Rear was balanced at 509 each wheel and front left was a little heavier than right front.

Last night was working hard on my Centro.
As I looked up standing before me was Scotty Ernest offering his hand.

Oman ! very cool

Most of the boys have their B5r and are tuning ....

Will be observing and sharing any useful set-up tips later.

I think esc should be on the right...considering the motor is more to the left.
