I saw in a thread the other day someone said the could get the VXL Brushless system for $120.The cheapest I've seen them is $169.99. I for the life of me can't remember what thread it was. If some one knows where to pick it up at that price could you please post a link.

Thanks much appreciated
Steve

$144.97 on tower right now after their 20.00 off discount promotion they are running right now. and you will have a viable warranty unlike buying from a private seller on ebay.

Alright it's a toss up between the VXL sytem and Mamba Max 5700kv. Which do you all prefer?

Yes the VXL system is overly complecated with small pins and two small circut boards, just dont car for the VXL Crap, The havoc i have never seen a problem with but thats only like 15 out of 1000's sold so there may be some flaws. The mamba systems i have never herd of anything bad about them:hat: So I still dont like VXL's:beatdeadhorse::devil:

If you were just going to bash around, I'd go with the VXL system.
