Bruce,
Revo is a great all around starter RC....Funny you call the revo a POS, look at your RC's.....Those are true POS's (just my opinion)
I saw a video not long ago where a guy beat the snot out of a bone stock revo and I couldn't believe the punishment it took. They are tough.
The 2.5 is a decent motor if you don't mess with it and "try" new things, traxxas already tried it for you, leave it alone. Also you only need like $50 in spares if that, I raced it two years and never had anymore that $50 bucks worth at once.
By no means am I here trying to "defend the revo" soley, I don't even own one anymore...I'm just here to state my experiences and my opinion.
Bye
