Interesting about the motor and speed control. They call it the Flux Warp motor and Motiv ESC, but the ESC is programmable with Castle Link. Most likely rebadged Mambas, yeah?

Anyone know how much yet?

The wires on the ESC have castle labeled on them.

Yeah wait for tower to drop the price, just like they did when the VXL RTR came out.
