some pics of the build. notice the new style of connection of the outdrive to the diff and the bearing holder. Also, a separate motor mount suggests an alum one coming

Only M05 Pro is out - not to be confused with M05 R
I belive a standard M05 will be out next month (with body etc)
R - who knows.....well maybe someone does ? Anyone ?

The only important difference from the potential non-pro M05 seems to be just the alloy rear hubs and bearings?

I had not even considered an "R" version.
I'm not crazy about the clear shocks included with the Pro version, and I didn't necessarily want all the alloy parts.
I already have a brand new set of the TRF shocks, but I'll need bearings and a Mini body.
Guess I'll have to wait and see.
