Choosing your first RC Car

You can buy kits in various forms from completely assembled and ready for fuelling to kits where you have to decide how to
assemble them and what engines to fit.

RC Car Kit Building Hints

The first thing to do of course is to choose the car kit you want to build.
The main choice is for a road racer or an offroad car (usually 4×4 !)
There are hundreds for sale on this site (usually at far less than store prices)

Gas RC Cars

There are almost as many thrills driving a high performance RC car at speeds of up to 70 mph and acceleration of zero to 60 mph in under 6 seconds

Electric RC Car ?

I guess this must be the starting point for most RC Car owners.
It is just so easy to operate an rc electric car.
You put batteries in – turn the switch and it goes beautifully.
