For $699 you can buy one of these and a free charger from a guy on RCU. The stock 2.4 may be plain but its got great range, and works well. I still sold mine for $20 to a friend. The stock Lipos are adequate enough to give 8 minutes of hard runtime, and are hardcased to boot. I sold them for $20 each to another
friend.
I think its a great deal personally. Its a brushless 1/5th scale, not a 1/8 or a Revo/Savage. Of course its gonna be a little more expensive. I have well over $699 in my gasser, so how can it be a bad deal?
