If you're looking to get into the 1/10 Revo, are you going brushless or brushed?

The 1/10 Revo brushless's aren't happy unless they are running off of dual Li-Po's, that's the only way you can run them. Li-Po's for those are NOT cheap. You'd have to spend probably $800 or more getting the truck, batteries and charger. The brushed one should run fine on NiMH batteries though.

For bang for the buck, get the 1/16th. If you have a good place to run it, you won't be disappointed. 50+mph out of the box with dual batteries in series, and plenty of fun on a 2s Li-Po.

Just invest in a couple sets of control arms for until RPM comes out with better ones. Also, thicker shock oil and better springs would be a good idea.
