thanks for posting those pics up Vyger...

yes, the kit comes setup to handle a 4-cell configuration. there will be the optional 6-cell setup, that offers wider battery mounting braces/bars, as well as a wider body.

the 4-cell out of the box setup allows for slower speeds, easier to drive, less prone to break something, and the gear diff not only allows for a lower price, it is also a much more newbie welcoming design, and does not require makor maintenance...and with the very aggressive pricing this kit is going to have, it is actually intended as a fun, entry level, super realistic looking F1.

PS- Orion/round bottom Li-Po packs will fit

kits should be popping up in hobby shops in august!
