Also what the crack with receiver packs ? Are these required to power the receiver due to the voltage of the batterys used ?

I think i'm going to use My Lrp SPX with this.

Any information would be apprecieted, i havent received the car yet hence the questions.

thanks

Hey Mike, depends on which gen x you got. Because some later ones have the brushless pod on them so all you would not have to buy any special parts. If you could post a picture that would help. You do need a small receiver pack because the speed controllers are not set to run on the 3.7v they normally use 6v. You can get a li-fe pack that will give you 6.6v max no regulater needed or a small 2s li-po pack 7.4v and pick up a regulator. There is another option of using a booster I know novak makes one and i forgot the other one people were using but I myself us a receiver pack.
