French manufacturer BRX has published the first photos of its new BRX5 “Full Watts,” a 1/8-scale 2WD chassis powered by a brushless motor and LiPo batteries. Silver carbon fiber is used for the main chassis with blue-anodized aluminum parts throughout, and the car uses a single-belt drivetrain. This 2015-spec kit has new battery mounts that accept a pair of shorty packs, which offer more weight distribution options, in addition to full-size 2S batteries. The rigid front and rear suspension is lifted straight from the brand’s nitro version, and users can convert each to the other.

BRX also included this promo video, presumably showing the judges from the French version of Dancing with the Stars giving the car a score of “10!”
