Hey I really do appreciate your input. This website is by far the best and friendliest one I have been to. In regards to the Spektrum it is new in the box!!! Also I am glad I made some good choices based on your information. I did buy the Mamba Max Pro ESC with the 5700kv motor. Still need to get some lipos and a charger. Have you ever heard of the Thunder AC6 Lipo charger/discharger/balancer? Seems to have gotten some very good reviews and the price is right. It seems like I cant stop researching on the internet for RC info. I am hooked!! Now to look for a local club/track.

Thanks again.
