Just got got my trooper pro from Hobbyking today and though i havnt run it yet im really impressed especially seeing as i only paid 219 dollars including shipping for it. This version includes the aluminum goodies from the nitro circus version anso includes redesigned front and rear diffs to increase durability. The 60 amp esc also has a larger fan on it. The rims now appear to be molded in red instead of being painted red but ill have to double check that later. Unfortunatly they didnt send the owners manual and stickers with it but im working on getting that corrected.
