Read the reviews. Some guy drove it around. Broke a part. Said they're isn't any replacement parts you can buy. With traxxis and arrma you can usually buy spare parts easily when they break. So yeah. This is a real issue on basher RC cars.

Parts are readily available.

That being said, for anyone considering this truck, it needs significant upgrades to be truly 6S ready. OOB the drivetrain will quickly be toast on 6S, stick to 4S.

Taking advantage of the expertise in this thread...

Thoughts on one of these as a starter kit for less than $200?

Redcat Racing Blackout, $139 (https://www.amazon.com/Redcat-Rac...B00O9MSTWG)

Arrma Typhon, $179 (https://www.horizonhobby.com/prod...rce=google)

...or some other one?

If you can swing a little more, the Typhon 3S BLX (brushless) is about $60 more and vastly superior to the brushed version you linked. I think you'd have an easier time finding help with Arrma than Redcat. Arrma Forum is a great resource where all are welcome.
