From my understanding, V2 has an upgraded TX/RX, servo saver, and swapped a couple of bearings for bushings.
The info that I can't find is what bearings were taken out in the V2? Seems like an easy thing to "fix" but what bearings are they?
Just doing research for IF I get another one.
 
I was just looking on FMS's website at their axles. The axles come in V1 and V2 as well.
Maybe it's the axles that they replaced some of the bearings. 🤷‍♂️ Saw a YT video that the guy said he'll add the missing bearings but didn't say what they were.
 
Yeah, I am not sure what they changed. I am sure there will be vids talking about it soon enough. I might be grabbing a Smasher here in a week or two. Have to see what the budget is this month.

Actually... I just grabbed a white one 😉

One of the parts that's sold separately as V1 and V2 is the complete axles. I'm guessing that's one of the differences.
