Get the failsafe...... roll cages really weigh down a vehicle. Maybe just a single roll bar to protect the head.

Failsafe. Not even a close decision. I would just pick up a small Ofna or Duratrax failsafe and save yourself some money. Some people have good experieces with the Venom Smarttemp, but way too many people have problems with them. Just my 2 cents worth.

FAILSAFE!
If you're looking to save money dont get the smartemp.
Venom makes one that is really small so it fits in any reciever box and its only like $20

get the failsafe first. BUT GET ONLY A FAIL SAFE UNIT. leave the temps to a hand held like the duratrax temp gun. about 25.00
Get the Roll Cage.. if your BASHING like i do YOU LL BE GLAD YOU HAVE IT. extra weight or not. also get steering servo covers. MAJOR HELP and Protection.
