Yea,definitely a big money pit.Just tired of having to buy several battery packs to run the car for more than 30 minutes with my son.We seen a couple of gas cars in the parking lot,top speeds of 50 miles an hour
I figured I'd switch over after a deal I made with my son to take car of his rc cars for a year or two,and I feel bad about shorting out the circiut card on the car after trying to re-solder the antenna
Thinking about buying a kit and build it togather.Found a site for a RC club here in Edmonton,have to do some research.
