Losi is really the best choice I can recommend for your budget and application, get yourself a 6.5T combo.
As Tony mentioned, some people do have issues with firmware updates but they can be quickly resolved. One of the best features when you buy Xcelorin is the after sales support you get with it, typical turnaround is 2-3 days and you'll have it fully repaired and tested or replaced.
