Just to see if I understand what you're saying.

I'm starting to think a '5 item limit' on a Modular might actually work better; then he could put it into flight, SPD, ST, or DR .. and maybe something else.. um.. a knockback, maybe.
No, I'd buy:
4 DR [20] five different times
+2 ST [20/5=4] five different times as alternates to the 5 DR packages
+1 Spd [20/5=4] five different times as alternates to the 5 DR package

I pay 140 for the whole thing, and can get any configuration I want. stickler GM's will object that it takes 5 readies to get any configuration by strict strict RAW. I wouldn't. And yes, I normally GM and would recommend this to my players.
