I don't know, frames pretty tight. Need to run a small lipo on the side of the trans. Esc and such'll be mounted on the forward upper links on a lexan plate. I read somewhere that AX10 spools and axles shafts can be modified to fit in the Venoms housing if something breaks internally. I dunno, at that point might as well just swap out em out completely. I hadn't run this one much in its stock configuration and none at all with the tuber frame, I have yet to move into lipos/brushless. It did crawl (creep) better than my CR01 though.
