I 2nd the xray m18t or m18t pro - awesome 1/18. I not been able to break a single part on it in over a year - stock.

Had a rc18 and although good, just like most other 1/18's out there you had to put a lot of extra money and work into it to make it handle decently. Out of the box the xray is super solid. Easier than the rc18 to work on, steering design is simply genius for a mini and rock solid servo saver.

I've had the RC18 ($300 extra into it), Mini-T ($200 extra into it), mLST ($800 extra into it and still a piece of sh*t) and the M18T is exponentially better (only upgrades - metal CVDs for the M18T for BL power and didn't really need them) - check out the m18t pro - all carbon fiber, cf driveshaft, hudy spring steel cvds - this thing is so light you don't even need rediculous power to make it go fast either.
