The part number and link are correct, but the pic does not show the difference (I still can't tell if AE is showing the other part, or the angle is too flat).

Check out this link:

http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...pper-Hub-Inner

In both pics you can see that the hub (91188) is keyed to rotate with the drive shaft. The stock/standard part (91092) is not keyed, so can only spin with friction between the hub/slipper pad/spur gear assembly.

pt 91092: stock part allows front and rear tires to slip, independently of each other

pt 91188: option coupled slipper which couples front and rear tires (so they slip or drive together)

One other slipper option is the locked hub fro Exotek (front tires ALWAYS drive, never slip, but VTS outer slipper pad allows rear end to slip).

Hope this helps.
