What's the difference between new evos and old Xmods?
 
I tryed searching around, but I still can't figure out if there are really any differences between the new evos and the 1gen Xmods.(Other than the cool upgrades) I have a 1gen Xmod 'vette and I like it. But I'd like to know the other differences between the new and old Xmods before I look into getting an evo.

well i just got an xmod but i have done alot of research so here goes: more power/speed, tighter turning, moveble battery pack, batteries on the bottom of chassis now, new bodys, fewer types of screws, more gear choices, smaller chassis width, faster controller response, i think sealed up better, and less moving parts. ok i think i got them all, anyone correct me if i am wrong. hope this helps you :D

Here's the more detailed breakdown (as stated in one of the Super Street mags).

The Xmods Evolution Chassis vs. Xmods Generation1

- 15% Higher Acceleration response
- 880 feet per minute (Gen1 was 830)
- 7 Gear Settings (Gen1 was 4)
- 1,300 feet per minute Max (Gen1 was 1,190 Max)
- 4 kinds of screws (Gen1 had 10)
- 20" steering diameter (Gen1 was 35")

- Rear suspension now sports a W wishbone design
- Drive noise significantly reduced
- Gears are easier to swap out, just change the ones around the motor
- The braking components have been tightened for more on-a-dime stops
- The Driveshaft and cup joint are now reinforced

- More Gearing choices
- Chassis width decreased by 4mm (Battery compartment relocated to bottom, instead of sides)
- Acceleration and Neutral response is immediate
- Fewer Working/Moving parts, so upgrades can be done in half the time.
- Gen1 Bodies/Shells will work with the Evo (but NOT the other way around)

what about steering and throttle resolution? are they more on par with the mini-z's now?
