Reventons have a rep for bugs though. Most SP users run the older GT's.
As Chris said, in the electric world its true we've really never had it so good. Unlike the old days, at last weekends regional the cars in the lowest final were just as quick as the cars in the top final - there are no more 'team spec' cells or motors.
I'm not totally convinced that its all buy cheap buy twice. ESC's I would certainly agree, but other stuff not so much. I've got £25 Turnigy NanoTech cells that are just as capable as my much more expensive Orions, and I've seen a few people with Turnigy Trakstar motors that look decent enough.
Radio wise I've been burnt with cheap ones that don't work and won't give up my KO in a hurry but I also see plenty of happy Flysky owners. Even with servos I've bust a few cheap ones but also got some still going strong that perform as well as my much more expensive Ace 1015.
Its just about knowing what you are getting and more importantly what you can do if it doesn't work.
