was reading this as I bought a tribute last fall.however after seeing hoe the mini pulse works I am going to go back to ny this spring and sell it before its even built.I like not having gears comes with a 450 stock outrunner.for me not having to mess with gears means I can truly enjoy the electric fun.yeahhhh I will build a foamy too.lol why not you can build them so darn cheap and they fly.and I plan to eventually get a mini stick later this spring it is awesome as well.
