It's based on a buggy and buggy's have less room under the hood. However, if you are using a brushless speed control like the Castle Mamba-25, it is still smaller than the standard electronics so I really don't see the big deal unless you tried to install some massive size receiver, i.e. JR RS300 and use a lot of GP batteries. Myself, I would simply use a 3-cell lipo and may just install the 11.1v set up myself. By the way, you never did mention how many volts and/or cells you were running.

Well the buggy is heavy to begin with and probably really heavy with 8 cells.
8 x 1.2v = 9.6v
8 x 1.5v = 12.0v
3 cell LiPo = 11.1v with less weight (mine anyway)

Ixlr8, I really think your disappointment is because the slipper is too loose. It doesn't hurt to try tightening it anyway. Please see my post about this issue:
