I do also like the X electronics alot. They have performed well for me with six batteries and i even tested them in my project car which has a modified 180 size motor. The componenets are all small and meant to fit eaxtly as planned.

The spy is a waste of money, it is very large in comparison to other ESC's and handles less. There are others in the market which out perform them.

As far as recievers go, the Hitec Shredder is the smallest ever made, however they have been discontinued, so good luck finding anything other than ebay and a few odds and ends places. Even the hitec seems a bit large and out of shape compared to the stock X receiver.

The stock servo works fine, and is a common Hitec HS-55. You can get them just about anywhere.

Tinyrc sells all this for $65, i think you still need a crystal though, but $65 is better than $60 for the Spy, about $50 for the Hitec Shredder and $25 for the Hitec HS-55.
