Great point of discussion: Not willing to carry 2 radios. i've struggled with the same & Probably the single most enemy of Box Stock class from taking hold.

At this point Kyosho RWD is the only race grade worthy RTR offering for under $200 including tax radio, Body & wheels.
The Jomurema RTR which the availability of it is no longer certain uses lipo and screws up its homologation for box stock as we've known it to this point.
The cheapest open radio & bare bones EVO + body +radio + wheels combo comes to $560 +tax.
We can all agree Box stock tries to achieve two intentions one being low cost of entry and maintenance and the second being restricted speeds ...unfortuanltely the open radio concept kills that very first purpose of the class at the start.
