The radio is not bad, the rest of the components have something to be desired though. I went through 2 receivers and two servos on with the one on my Magnum. The one on my Matrix TR has not had any issues yet (only tow months old). I would not compare them to the Airtronics that came with my Matrix buggy or my Nemesis. Does not compare to JR, JR or Spectrum is definately worth the extra moeny. Just my two cents!
