azz187 - Thanks for the post, def helps. I wanted to get an idea from someone that had experience with both. Xray seems to be more refined though it is annoying that they come out with cars so often. I guess as long as they provide upgrade kits, it not so bad.
I'm still going to read up on the forums before making a final decision. I've never had an xray. My previous cars have been a Tamiya 414, EVO3 and AE TC3. My favorite has been the 414. AE just seemed a bit rough on the edges.
On a separate question, any recommendations for a top end LiPo charger and Batteries? I've been out of the sport for a bit so last time I raced there were no lipo options.
Thanks for the info.

But some chargers are faster than other - especially about balancing. My old Imax takes forever to balance, but with my new Orion TwinSpec I can charge and balance a battery in 18 minutes.

I guess as long as the amp charge is above 10 then it's good? I may just get the Thunder Power TP610. The LRP look cool, but is a bit $$$.

The 3 I am looking at are:
- LRP Pulsar Touch Competition
- Hyperion EOS 0720i NET3-AD
- Thunder Power TP610
I want to spend 150ish but get somethign that will last awhile.

i am not sure of the hyperion 720, but my 615 duo3 does allow adjustment of the peak. i think in +/- .005v increaments. it is labeled tvc and can be adjusted from 4.195v-4.280v for a lipo

I have the 720i net 3 yes it has these features and more. User updateable too. I have updated to firmware 5.0, even better. Awesome charger

I was playing with my duo last night and I have an update to my post. basically the tvc works as long as you have the battery on the balancing port. if you are not balancing, then the charger cuts off at 4.2v/c. so the tvc settings have no effect. if you can find a Ce turbo/gfx. they are a little bulky, but seam to do the best at charging batteries to their full potential. and the new version of the firmware allows adjustment of the peak voltage.
