I think you already made a good choice for that price

If you buy a new AT Pro from a dealer like Bart of Big Boys Hobbies, you will not get one of the sick ATP's.

Sandman,
You have me concerned....I just bought an AT Pro yesterday, but not from Big Boy Hobbies. What do you mean by "sick ATP"?

What sandman means is :

a lot of the ATP's of the past were hit and miss in function and depth, etc.

sort of a gamble as to if you'd get a good one or not.

Most these days don't have the issues of the past but they are out there and if you've never owned one but you get one of the bad ones - you may never even know it because you don't have anything to compare it to.

I had to send my last one back for exchange because it was a bad one - I'm on my 3rd one
