That's about where it stands really. But for the price, they're really not that bad.

For the price, not bad. I got it for $30 but the quality of it is a hit and miss.... the plastic is very fragile and the screws seems to strip easy (same with Mini-z) hence i'm trying to get into 1/18 instead... 1/28 is a little too small... and 1/10 (I have no where to run right now)

I heard the new batch of XMod Evo sucks! They do not have interchangable crystals anymore. The car and the controller has fixed crystals! There is a guide to make the car having an interchangable crystal (see AtomicMods for reference), but you still need to find the older to make the controller interchangable too or do your own mod.

Good thing I got the previous batch (Transformers Camaro)... Go GM!

Here is my Xmod that I got around a year ago when I was on business trip to the states.

XMod Evo Chassis with blue aluminum front knuckles and tire upgrade kit (soft rear, stock front). Ball bearings are on the way. Running Team Orion 900HV batteries.
Chevy Camaro body from Transformers (Bumble Bee).

So far so good, I can keep up with my buddy's stock Mini-z. But this thing has so many gears that it is so loud like a real American V8 compare to the Mini-Z.






Should of change the camera setting so I don't end blurring that background that much...

If I'm lucky, I should be test driving the real 2010 Chevy Camaro in the next couple of days

Does look nice man. Have you tried adding more fets to run hotter motors.

Nah, not planning on adding much mods to it. Come one it's a Xmod It's more for bashing around than trying to race someone.

MRS4 will probably be this weekend. But got so much school related stuff to do before I can do much with RC... argh second degree is taking too much time!
