'Instant gratification' and 'charge and go' is what this is hobby is turning into it seems.....
Look at it this way, for those that just want instant gratification, they'll buy this toy, get frustrated with it and dump it on SleazeBay for a fraction of what they paid.
Good thought. I should put up a search. :mrgreen:

Just ordered a Red and black Crawler for 204.95$ each.....might keep the red one, and sell off the black one for parts.

I have a Slash due in tomorrow as well, not sure if that is a keeper or not as well.

I was looking at that one as well....but I kinda like the Losi Setup better. RTR vs RTR they were the same price
basicly, but I think the Spektrum radio and the battery size\shape won me over.

(I got 3 1000mah 7.4 LiPo's from the Mini LST2 deal Horizon had going last month just sitting here)

I also just picked up a Mini-T, which uses the same battery configuration as well.....

I just have 1 I use for my hobby\business eBay stuff. I do all payments online, and I can see the payment transfer in a day so I know it's paid. Easier online as I typically pay the card 3-4 times a month from sales.....

mine only lets me pay twice a month online, so I had to send a check.
