Thanks for the comments, Zach. Titanium might be a little exotic for the masses, though. I do have intentions of making an extended truggy style Maxx chassis with race-inspired features in addition to the one mentioned in this thread, but 1st I want to create a do-all platform that appeals to a broader audience. I do plan on including the battery trays , and have largely committed to a design strategy that I think will satisfy most. :-)
