XL has an additional @1.8" in wheelbase. I put the HPI extension "hubs" on mine - no issues from it yet. I agree, its not the best design, and I will upgrade to the FLM's someday...

Get the 2 speed off Ebay. Looks like they go for @20 bucks or less. The Flux tranny's are selling for 40+ (I believe they are buying their own parts back time after time....I've been trying to buy one for a couple months - no way are they selling that many of them at exactly the same price every time).

Ditto this...they are actually a decent part.
