In my opinion, yes.
Here are my thoughts after a few weeks of ownership.
• Fast! Clocked it at 37mph but probably could get a couple more out of it
• Flimsy! A front shock broke, and after replacing them with stiffer shocks (came from amazon, not sure what kind of vehicle they made the replacement shocks for with how small but stiff they are) the shock tower broke. I replaced it with an aluminum one and haven't had any more breaks so far.
• Battery life is decent. The provided charger will charge the small battery quick enough to render it useable. If I wanted to upgrade any electronics I would start with a bigger battery.
• The motor gets hot- if you're looking into buying one you probably already know
• The servo is terrible, very slow.
• The range is slightly disappointing but it's fine
• It's hard to control for less experienced drivers
I bought mine for $50 from banggood so my thoughts on it are based off of that price point.
