Is AE looking to go the 3S route with some battery packs? The new higher C rating packs could in theory handle the load and be lighter, combined with the appropriate KV motor. Already know of a few 3S hardcased lipos out there too.


So, since the plastic shock bodies are the hot ticket, will we see in future nitro and electric iterations factory team kits using plastic shock bodies?

Also, since the shock bodies were a weight consideration, what about the shock towers. are they lighter than the carbon fiber?
