I read through a number of posts in that thread, and am glad to see that there are only minor problems that most likely will be fixed with the release of aftermarket parts.

Probably the biggest problem with the chassis for me is the battery mounting. Because the battery is put in through the bottom, it can only be so tall. This means that I will have to buy a Lipo pack that will fit, and will pretty severely limit my choices. As it is, I might have to go with 2s or 3s Lipo, which is a deviation from the standard 4s that I like to use.

BTW, I DID order one of these, which must have been one of the few that Tower Hobbies had left in stock:
