With all due respect to the awesome power of electric now, it'll just never be as cool as nitro. Crowds don't draw around electric RC. They want to see the gas burning machines.
I look at electric RC like I look at grilling. Having a gas grill is OK as long as you have charcoal first. With RC, electric is OK as long as you have nitro first. :)
I have been eyeballing those Flux', but after you buy a couple of 3s batteries, you could have gotten a Baja 5B.

To each his own. I am not really fond of nitro due to the noise. The performance is ok, but nitro does not have the acceleration that a high power brushless setup does. Electric is definately not for noobs, I think something rtr like traxxas' nitro products is better. As long as the instructions are read throughly (assuming that people who buy nitro products can read...) decent performance is attainable. Some people will never be able to grasp electric...
As this is a predominantly electric forum, you may experience some differ points of view... No big deal, like I said, to each his own... I can imagine you have well more than the price of a baja invested in that savvy... And way more than I have in my electric savvy.
