Take care of your stuff and it will take care of you. A "quaty" charger, tray and lathe are going to go a long way when it comes to taking care of your all your stuff. I'm not exactly sure what your asking...but for me, I've got:
Integy 16x5 charger/discharger
Integy Octane 20 tray
Cobra lathe

Make sure you get as much radio as you can afford along with a solid steering servo and speed control. Comparing radios like the Helios, M8/M11, and the 3PK is a matter of apples and oranges. All are great radios, however most people become partial to different manufacturers. A fast quality steering servo is a must. The JR 3550 and 3650 (Digital) are ideal choices. Just take your time and get the right equipment the first time. You picked the right class.

WHAT DO I NEED
I am using a Novak GT-7 which has no motor limit. This summer I used an LRP IPC Pro-Sport Digital ESC (around $90). It handled my 10x2 with no problems.

WHAT DO I NEED
As far as batteries, I am running GP 3300's. I have yet to upgrade to more mili-amps. Basically, the higher the amp-hours the more run time. Especially with a hot 10x2.
