Thanks
I doubt it, unless you get a tiny receiver and get very creative mounting it. I tried a Novak Pulse that I had sitting around and I just couldn't make it work. The Pulse is on the large side, and I think a Castle esc is even bigger than a Pulse. If you want neat wiring and the esc and receiver both side by side in the rear tray you will need something smaller. I ended up buying a Viper VTX10 Black Edition esc and it fits very well, I'm very happy with it.

With the flipped arms are they running the B5 or B5M arms?

How do you install the rear motor arms on the mid motor? I haven't seen any real clear photos or instructions.
Is it just putting the left on the right and vice versa? I lined them up with standard arms like that and can't see the difference, except screw hole for hinge pin is on different side.

Something I'm missing? Do you flip them so they hang down instead of up?

Help. I need a low traction setup. Every couple of months, when we do a rebuild, we run our normally super ultra high traction bluegroove track wet for one night before we sugar it. This is pretty much the time I use a regular B5R. Anybody have a setup for a loose and wet track? If so, can you point me in the right direction? I'm considering using the box setup which seems to be ok pretty much anywhere. Thoughts?

Even on wet bluegroove I don't need it with a 17.5. Have all you slipper running 17.5 guys tried to run an eliminator? It's $20 for the Exotek hub and a gear. Try it you'll like it.
Are you able to run a stock spur gear with the Exotek slipper eliminator?

The track is a med bite outdoor hard packed . as the track keeps more moisture in the eve that's when it pushes the worst. Tires are green rips with open cell and green hybrids
