I just picked up a rusty vxl and was curious if there's anything I need to know about this thing as far as maintenance or weak points... upgrades right off the bat? I went ahead and ordered a set of anaconda tires mounted on an extra pair of stock wheels for pavement (probably get the most use). I wanted something that would be a beast right out of the box for on and off road, so I'm thinking this was the best route for me to go.
I decided to go with the maxamps rtr combo here ...

... since this will be my first experience with lipos I figured it would be a good place to start.
