I used the clues right here in this thread and my amazing powers of deductive reasoning to arrive at this conclusion.

If there is anything else you would like explained, feel free to ask
I completely missed the pic, was reading the text. Guess that shows my inteligence level, I would rather read than look at pretty pics.

I do not doubt that it can be made to wheely, it does have a solid center drive, and maybe some traction compound and hot asphalt would be a good grippy combo.

But Patrick just said that it can break the tires loose, so...

It has been my experience that longer wheelbase rcs do not wheely are much, especially if the weight distibution is well centered and the cg is low.

I will not buy one of these till the initial batch is sold and proven by more eager people than myself.

I am working on getting an old i phone for cheap right now, just to have a cool touch screen setup.

Also thinking that an ambitious modder could use the traxxas radio for its guns, and make a really cool tx out of it.

I like the form and feel of the cheapo fly sky gt3b. So use the trigger and wheel off the traxxas radio, make the docking bay (or permanently attach) the i device on the top and put a good sized 3s lipo on the bottom to balance it out. Given the various i device docks I have seen I am sure a good off the shelf solution could be found. Just thinking out loud, but I may have to investigat this further.
