I have no opinion on AE's business model, I don't care.

That said, when they're available on AE's site, buy them. If you hesitate, they will disappear quick. If you think about it, they have a TON of team drivers nation wide to fulfil orders from, and the "rest" get put out publicly.

yeah, people want to "preorder" them and use coupon codes. You pay a premium price to get some cool stuff first. Socket has no problem paying that price, which is fine. Personally, I will wait. We all have that choice. But if you are buying the latest and greatest from AE's site, you need to be on the ball, as they dont have preorders.

my main interest is in the new shafts and pistons. The gold looks cool but I like the getting rid of the clips on the pistons. i would settle for the old bodies with the new shafts and pistons.

Yes. the only thing that isn't interchangeable is the new pistons with old shafts and new shafts with old pistons.

Without browsing the 14,000 posts in this thread, what would be the advantages and disadvantages of running an inline setup?

Couple questions....
-Will a B5M body work on a B5M Lite?....it's already been cut for a B5M.
-Do I run the esc or motor in reverse for the Lite? OR reverse the direction in my radio? I'm running Novak Club Race esc and Novak Vulcan 13.5

Body will fit, you'll just need to cut the other side out. You do not need to reverse direction on anything. That was the point of flipping the motor plate to the other side.

Cool, thanks! I've heard both ways on reversing direction on electronics. Good to know I can use the electronics I already have! Thanks guys!!
