It has the upgraded battery for it but it would not fit in the central compartment due to the mess of wires he just stuffed in there. I am in the process of replacing the brake actuator that was melted into the transmission housing and decided to re-route the wires so I could use the charging jack and put the cover back on the central battery compartment with the battery in it. I currently have the tranny and motor out of chassis.
Sorry for the late response. Were you able to get it set up? The wiring is pretty simple. The receiver box of course holds receiver, the servo wire and on/off switch wire runs down the side by the throttle servo and thru the battery compartment to the receiver. The same for RPM sensor and temp sensor I just ran it under top plate after installing. If the leads are too long that you have extra and can't fit the battery in the middle, you can put it in the rear box and run the cord over the engine side. Let me know if you have other questions. I searched for a diagram online but couldn't find any.
