[Overdriven]

I just bought a slash 4x4 PE, and I love it. Its a tough truck, handles good IMO, and alot of fun. After putting it through the ringer (ended up doing barrel rolls + end over end a couple times) I did bend the rear stub axles a bit. But the stubs are the same as a Nitro Rustler so they're easy to find. I haven't tried the optional gearing yet, but mine stays cool on 3s and is plenty fast for now.

I was reading the manual last night and the Traxxas 2.4 radio has a 20 model memory and will remember the settings according to the reciever they were programmed to. So no scrolling through model numbers, just turn it on and go. It has EPA, sub trim, throttle expo, dual rate, brake %. THe knob used to adjust can also be locked, so accidental adjustment won't occur. It may be a pain to setup not having a screen, but if you "set it and forget it" it sounds like it'll get most people by just fine until you can afford a pricier radio.
