Just to throw something else in that you may not have considered.
I have owned an Esprit 2, Esprit 3 (Spektrum Pro) and 3VCS (2.4 FASST) - and honestly - I preferred my old Esprit 2 Type R... Wish I'd done a spektrum conversion! Felt the best to hold out of all three, excellent quality, and I preferred the rate knobs where you knew where the end points were when you couldn't take your eyes off your car! As for reliability, I have never had any radio issues with any of them, look after your radio, and it'll look after you.
