Well, it's RTR with upgraded electronics is how I read it. I see the Castle Link, but I don't see an esc advertised. The link allows you to program a Castle ESC and BEC.
As far as the Wraith is concerned, I like mine. I haven't broken anything on it, have made a few upgrades including the servo, and it is a nice rig. I use it mostly for trails and getting over logs and rocks that may be on the trail. It is (mine) not a dedicated crawler.

Ya, that's a regular kit not the "enhanced" CKRC kit.
Your not getting much for your extra money with this kit. For about the same price you can put together something far superior. That Titan motor is probably $15 and being a 550 can makes it a snug fit.
A little reading I recommend is this. http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/axial...ipers-%2A.html
Your far better off reading and creating your own "kit". Then you won't let your wife drive it.

Looking at the list, you have about $100 worth of upgrades with a $160 increase in price. Math isn't my strongest subject, but even I know that isn't a good deal
