I feel like $459 is a bit steep for a 2wd RC10

The trans is definitely the one from the 2014 Worlds car. Hopefully the got the mesh right this time.

That's quite a lot for that car. It seems hard to justify that price.

"Updated Worlds Stealth Transmission Case"
"Updated Worlds idler gear and idler shaft"
Will this transmission have a different ratio than the standard stealth transmissions, or is that just referring to moving the bearings from the case to the gear?
“Internal Gear Ratio:1.83:1” instead of 2.25:1.

Looks exactly like the one in my DS, which is fine
Consistency is the key I keep misplacing.

Hmm didn't realize they changed the ratio, now I really want to see inside the gearbox.

The DS has the one that is reversible for mid motor. The 2014 Worlds release did not. The little ridges are a giveaway. Still a 2.25.

I think the $459 realm is going to be the new pricing standard for kits moving forward.

This does have a few one off and custom parts. trans case and gears are different than current kits, the chassis being milled is another big one, sourcing iridium graphite stock for the rear tower are three things that aren't in the normal production range not to mention the who tariff thing. The price doesn't surprise me much, I'm just happy that this is better done than the Halsey car.

It doesn't look like there's any milling of the battery and electronics area of the chassis.

Kinwalds car they are emulating also lacked the milling. This isn't a world's car, it's a Kinwald tribute car.
