And you yourself WC aren't exactly thrilled with the AE parts on the B4 enough to only run the stock slipper setup or even a VTS one, instead of your Avid one?

Ultimately, By the very nature of the fact that people are modifying the vehicle at ALL, including the team from how it comes out of the box shows that you can always improve. Any engineer worth his salt doesn't sit pat on a design. Seldom do you get it right the first time or have no room for improvement.

Without questioning if you can gain more performance from the platform with further changes, regardless if that questioning comes from the grass roots level or AE special forces, we probably would still all be running the first gen RC10s, brushed motors, etc ...

Heck, break out the tether line ...

Food for thought ...
