    The new body looks sick!! Thanks for playing a part I getting me into R/Cs, and for introducing me to all these awesome budget R/Cs! My first and current RC is my modified WLTOYS 144001, it has a Hobbywing 1060 brushed ESC (works great), a drop in metal gear 3 wire servo, and a DumboRC X6 radio and receiver. I'm still running the stock 550 brushed motor, when it wears out I'm probably going brushless!

      And so it begins, going down the rabbit hole. I was you last year and now I own a Traxxis Maxx (what he referred to as the mini-Maxx). While sure, I'd love an X-Maxx, the normal Maxx was much easier to pay for. Its a blast to have and thrash around with. My son loves to drive it too. Its been a good bonding item for us to spend time together around.
      I haven't used any ARMA cars, but Traxxis makes some good RC cars.
