I probaly should of mentioned it didnt have to be a project but that was an option. I think I decided on the rustler vxl, will go with maxamps charger, lipo battey, and balancer combo they have for the vxl. Unless somone says otherwise for lipo and a charger. I would adventaully like to put a spektrum dx2 radio in it too. That should keep me happy for a while. Just have to save money for a while and hope it doesnt take too long...lol
