yea, it's a losi body on a mbx6. losi electric body allows for larger lipo packs. but next time, i'll stick with a mugen body..

No, I wish I could paint something like that. That is the Upgrade RC wrap that comes with the updated kit. Its not to bad but I dont think Id pay for one.

Well I guess it will be AE or Losi

I just used the MBX5 conversion from RCPD. The diff/ motor mount fit perfectly and on the battery tray I just had to drill some new holes (in the tray not the chassis). The battery tray actually fits on the 6 better than it did on the 5 (closer to the center by maybe 10mm). You do need to use a complete Kyosho center diff but that way you can use the plastic spur. Been running mine since the week the X6 came out with no issues.

I should have a BCE MBX6 chassis blank in two weeks. After I get everything mounted up the chassis will go back to Bill at BCE so he can make a run of E-MBX6 chassis's for my roller kits. I'll post pics of the proto-type before I send the chassis back to Bill.

Get a Plus 21-4. Add turbo button if you want. 21-4 has the "Tuned" crank.
