Are there any particular name brands to gravitate towards or stay away from?
I am interested in quality and longevity of running time. I am hoping to find a good one on a great sale for around $250.00 please help.
If it is somebody’s first rc, I’d stay with electric. It is easier, more reliable and sometimes more durable because of slower speeds. Brushless electric rcs are as fast or faster than gas but cost a lot. Parts, batteries, charger, and tools also take up some money. A traxxas stampede is a great all around vehicle. or losi highroller. or traxxa slash. a mini e-revo is another fun option or rc18mt, losi micro or mini trucks. Overall a stampede xl-5 for 180 plus a nice charger and battery would be the best.
