Wow, this car looks great, lets see how it tests in a few weeks. By far the most original and innovative of the recent new releases.

Funny also how all the new cars are coming out with front diffs agai

What novarossi pipe is that in the photo? How long is the stinger on it?

Another bit of info that might be of interest:

At the toy fair, the Shepherd guy told me that the car only takes LiPo receiver batts. They obviously have found a 6.6 V Lipo!!???, which will not need a balancer for charging and no regulator for BEC voltage.

The car will come with one LiPo pack.

This is what I have been told, so don't nail me on it.

I have also never heard of a 6.6V LiPo, but they were insiting..

Sounds like LiFePo (aka A123)?

Hi there,
i have to tell you whats up with the batterie.
As Stefan told you we will supply one of the batteries with the car.
In the moment we are testing some different batteries, LiPo, Li Ion and other.
Some with 6.6 and some with 7,4 like the Lipos.
For charging we will not have to use a balancer for any of the batteries, but for use in the car it is depending to the Receivers and the servos if you need to use a regulator. In the moment it looks like it will be a 2000mAh 7,4V.
Works great, easy to charge up to 2A, and good capacity.

kind regards
Alex
