Will the carbon battery plate accept different battery sizes?

The carbon plate fits the standard battery footprint for this chassis; minor strap or spacer adjustments may be needed for nonstandard pack lengths but mounting points are compatible with common sizes.

Are replacement parts available for the reinforced differential?

Yes, individual components like gears and bearings can be sourced if damaged; keep spare diff gears on hand if you run in heavy conditions.

What setup changes benefit the lightweight body?

With the lighter body you may want to soften front ride height and reduce wing angle to retain steering bite while keeping top speed. Test small adjustments and log lap times to see the best setup.
