If you're considering the ST-15 because money is an issue, you'd be better off hanging on to your money until you can afford something else.

I have an HPI NMT and my Brother has an HPI Rush. I bought an ST-15 for my Father in law and also one for my brother in law as Christmas gifts because they wanted to drive with me and my brother.

I can tell you from running with them on the weekends that they are nowhere close in performance and driveability when compared to the NMT, Rush, RC10GT or the Losi. Our trucks soak up the bumps and jumps while the ST-15 flips and rolls. I believe that it is an inferior truck and that it should only be considered if you simply cannot afford anything else.

I know the opinion sounds harsh, however I've driven it a few times and when compared to the other trucks that cost a little bit more, it simply isn't worth saving $50.00 to $75.00 over. Just my .02 cents.
