RE: NITROS SUCK BAD!! WOW, REALLY BAD!!!
Brushless is a lot easier and cleaner. That being said if you do something drastically wrong with big power electric setups (wiring, gearing, kv calculations, load etc,) it is even less forgiving than nitro. The electronic can be destroyed in a few secs.
Bottom line you still have to learn your stuff regardless if you are running electric or nitro.
