Mad Monkey or Losi 22???

[Gman1108]

hi all, first posting here...

my son has a mad rat, its running ok but he'd like to move to the next level.

His rat has an Ansmann 10.5 motor and Ansmann speedo. He's talking about buying a Losi 22 but after speaking with friends and seeing a mad monkey in action, he's not sure which way to go...

Obviously, the cost of a losi is far more expensive, but other differences does he need to be aware of...what are your recommendations and thoughts?

thanks
