Gimme a reason to NOT buy it, do the have a habit of letting out the magic smoke?
We dont have a problem with spending the $$ on the good stuff but we are mostly 99.9% of the time racing as our group, not going to races that are organised so its good if we all have the same system unless its a real POS
If you can save money, thats great. I'm all in favor of that.
However, here's the flip side, if for whatever reason somewhere in the future your group decide to race something else that requires 2s lipos, with the LRP you're covered; with the 1s only Havoc, your stuck. Yes its hedging your bet and hopefully your group will like 1/12 and will never consider anything else.
