I see Mike has the MMM for $130 now, that's just amazing! My LHS is selling MMPs for $127, amazing how cheap this stuff is getting. I'm starting to get thoughts that I might have this sucker back up and running in the next 2-3 weeks if everything has gotten this much cheaper (new Spektrum Rx is only going to run me $50).

Any recommendations on batteries for my truck? I really liked the Turnigy lipos that were stolen with my first Muggy but heard HobbyCity's shipping is getting iffy and might look elsewhere for my batts. Hyperion G3s still look to be a hot item, but I'd like a pair of 3s lipos that will fit my Rustler's battery tray as well. They're a bit pricey but if I can't get Turnigys or some other decent cheap lipo then they're on the list.

hobbycity just opened up a US warehouse with a nice selection of lipos. i just got a pair of 3s 2200mah 40c packs, 200w charger, and a 6ch 2.4gHz tx/rx combo and the shipping was $10.
