It's mostly designed to help you keep track of how long it's been since you charged a battery, and what the status of each battery is. Probably useless if you inly have 2 packs, but really handy when you got 20 lipo packs laying around

No, this is definitely a 1/10 and LARGER than most 1/10 scale trucks. This truck sits at 327mm axle to axle (most fair way to compare) and the traxxas stampede 4x4 sits a 275mm. The average is somewhere in between so around 300mm.

A GMC Canyon crew cab short box is almost exactly 10 times the size of the big rock for length. So I think they can still say 10th scale and be technically correct, which is the best kind of correct.

Hmm that's a 1st for me I have all the rc brands and always thought arrma was the most simple to work on only 4 screws and the servo esc receiver come out all in one and the the motor and slipper ots only one screw to get out but everyone has there reasons . If you want the better handling arrma with same set up but not so easy to roll the senton is best but will say the tires don't last long on it but all rc have something we love or hate nothing has it all . Great job on video
