True. Complete redesign and move the servo upfront.

Kentech posted some info on his blog. 

- Rear motor, RWD

- TA06 rear diff

- bearings and CVA dampers

- trailing arm rear suspension

- beadlock tires

- rollcage

Sounds like some sort of desert buggy

Its a lovely looking thing, I bet it won't be cheap.

[Elbowloh 596]

Well, I think I want one.

[Ministrone 1363]

I think I want one too, I wonder if the brushless motor is inclded with the kit?

I'm in as long as there's no ABS plastic in sight...

The front arms look like grey ABS? Chunky though.

[mtbkym01 3530]

Modern Wild One?

[Ministrone 1363]

Bearings are included.

Loving that! Gotta be one of their best new releases in ages. Fingers crossed its not obscenely priced. 

[Elbowloh 596]

Aluminium aeration dampers as stock.

Yes yes yes. A modern take on something like the Rough Rider or Wild One, but using modern fibre-reinforced plastics with a full LED light kit option. That would be epic. I know other companies do something similar (like Team Associated), but although the plastics are great they usually end up whacking on a tribal designed Tupperware tub as a body. NO ONE does 'scale' like Tamiya.

This was close .

Looks absolutely stunning! Lovely stuff. I can’t wait.

[lsear2905 1268]

I'm ordering this if it's reasonably priced... RWD with trailing arms? A body that looks like an actual thing? And that front end looks pretty tough... This thing will be driven and enjoyed, no shelf queen here!!
