Perfect for the Novice - Fast for the Expert!
Electric RC cars and trucks have several advantages for new hobbyists. Remote control electric cars are
clean-running, make relatively little noise, and they’re easier to operate. You don’t have to buy fuel, light glow plugs or fuss over engine adjustments. Just charge your batteries, connect wires and off you go!
At you have a huge variety to choose from on-road racing cars to truggies and motorcycels.
You just need to choose the terrain, either off-road or on-road.
Many electric cars come in "sport" or "competition" versions. First-timers might prefer the sport models for their
lower cost and simplicity, though if you're set on racing, you may want some competition features, such as
ball bearings and oil shocks.
When you choose electric RC car kits, read the fine print to see what it includes and what extras you will need to purchase. If your preference is RTR (ready-to-run) remote control car kits, check to see if it comes with a motor, a couple of battery packs, a charger, and an electronic speed control.
Competition-level cars provide the basic rolling chassis, but often require you to purchase everything else
(motor, battery, electronic speed control, body) separately. But look below at the Electric Buggy which comes ready-to-run (RTR).
