yeah if you have no experence with rc kits you may run into problems when building it. but on the other hand it would teach you alot about your truck

get the ss. i have never built a kit and it was really easy. the intructions are very clear. i had no problems + if you get the ss you get to buy your own radio system so it wont be the crap one the 25 comes with.
