option for single shorty setup too.


I wonder if AE will do anything different than what we are seeing these days?

Nice on the Durango that the diffs slide out from the chassis with ease.
I had a dex410 v3 - super tight on space for electronics... looks like that has been improved.

Wow the Durango hijack is strong in this thread considering the OP asked about the next AE wheeler. That's great the V5 looks nice but the V6 is probably 3 months away as always...

I know a guy that knows a guy that said they opened Brent Thelke's luggage at the airport when they realized it was him and saw a new 4wd car. Couldn't take pics

I have a feeling the pillow ball trend (plague?) might be making its way to 1/10th off-road... Sworkz first, others will follow...

Right. Let's get back on track and talk about every single aspect of what we new about a new wheeler, and when it'll be released. That would look like this:

[silence]

Or we could all ramble on about what we'd like to see that we might not ever see, or digress and say that it'll just be a B44.4 that will probably be released with a shortened carbon fiber chassis. That would look like this:

[un-satisfying babble]

So I guess we should expect that when coming to a thread that we all know probably won't have significant content to expect it to wander a bit.

Where's the flashlight? I need to shine a light on the 'Lock This Thread' icon.

are you sure pillow ball would be a negative? the way current 1/10 offroad is right now with smooth surfaces and high traction. A pillow ball front end might just be the ticket.

Well, interesting opinion. I guess we'll see what way the manufacturers head..

haha. all true. re: "we could all ramble on about what we'd like to see" - updated to metric, rear wing threaded "button style" supports, 12mm hex on all corners, diffs sliding out from the front and rear easily, less screws through chassis, stick with 3 gear diffs drivetrain, maybe a carpet config/setup and a clay/dirt? New kick ass body from JC or Pro-Line.
