I would had agreed with the RTR Monkey but a friend bought one following my recommendation (looked ideal, on paper..) & unfortunately we've had trouble with it from the off, motor wire polarity back to front, no prog. card available to adjust the esc, then worst of all getting too hot & cutting out within 2-3mins for no reason. Now Ansmann are causing problems with the necessary repair/replacement.

All the wires are very thin, the capacitor wire broke. As regards to the electrics, it all seems a bit... cheap & nasty tbh. Aware you get what you pay for but i now just don't think it's worth it. Best buy the kit & install your chosen electrics to go in it, plus, as mentioned the little upgrades to allow it to cope with brushless.

In hindsight i'd have recommended a non RTR, or secondhand.
