i have one and all i can say is WOW..it comes with what looks like a futaba made am..they are having problems with the drive pins in the front cvd's sheering off,but they have prolly fixed that by now... but if not they will send you replacements for free.. just call and ask..thats all i had too do..other than that the stock steering servo is pretty good for a rtr.. you may wanna upgrade for racing..i dropped a 358 in mine now it turns like crazy)200oz tq).....id say get it youll love it!!The motor is a lil under powered 4 racing though...

I raced mine today,First time out,Been a long time..about 3 years,No nitro.. Had NO problems with the CVD's, broke a shock end.. and bent the heck of the steering link..center alum.But I must say OH MY this truck is way way bad..as in faaaaast(could use a bit more motor)It's not really fair racing against the Revos,LST's,Maxx's or any other MT,Smoked all the other truggys as well.. Just so easy to drive.
