No, Never saw it buy price is high. And you still need a 2-CH Radio and a Bump Box. That would make a nice E-Revo for Racing Electric Monster Trucks.

Someone at my local track has one, racing hasn't started, so I haven't seen a direct comparison yet, but one of the other guys said that he had put almost $800 into aftermarket parts on his Revo to make it about the same as the new Plat Revo (he was a little annoyed he bought his Revo last year and spent all that upgrade money).
