Wait for the Savage Flux XS, 1/16th Savage (although it's more like 1/12th tbh). I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say that this should be one of the best RCs on the market hands down when it comes out. 65mph stock, Savage durability, even looks to be stronger than the full size Savages. Fully waterproof, just a touch over 300 bucks RTR (no batts/charger).

I think he wants nitro.

Most 1/16 scale nitros have been discontinued, but you can still find the sportwerks chaos, and some Chinese off brand (same as the sportwerks) floating around ebay. As previously stated, there is also the xray nt18, but I heard they are just about ready to discontinue those.
