    Yeah, you will come out money ahead just by selling the S and the R, only $229.00.

    Haha Ive heard this so many times. I do agree with you.
    Ive had a Revo 3.3 for about 2 years and had fun tinkering and toying with it but it can be a hassle at times. I bought a smaller 1/16 summit and Id say its nicer with no mess no fuss runs.
    Still though nothing can compare to opening up that throttle and ripping up the street with what sounds like a chainsaw. haha:D

    Also if you light it on fire at night it makes a crazy white flame and you can draw cool things.

    A buddy of mine gave me this rc18t2 today, has a reedy brushless 5000kv in it, needs a servo, rebuild the rear shocks and a body. Anyone else have one of these little guys? He said it needed a esc but when i threw a 2s pack i had on it, it hauled ass forward and reverse so dunno why he said it needed a esc :confused:


    Will be ordering a stock servo and a body for it tonite, any other stuffi should buy?
