You pay more, but they work right out of the box. So to answer your above question, $150 is more than enough to get a couple batteries, charger, and radio system.īefore we recommend a truck though.what is your RC experience so far? Do you know how to solder a connector to a battery? Have you ever setup an RC radio system before? If the answer is "no", then perhaps a traxxas product is good for you. A decent charger (better than anything you'll find in a Traxxas RTR kit) will run $50. But with a Slash Ultimate being more than $500, it's pretty hard to justify in my opinion, when there are so many other good setups for much less money.įor price reference, Valuehobby and hobbyking sell Lipo batteries for less than $20. They still make a good product that is very beginner friendly, and they have the best parts support of any brand (at least in the US).so they have some good things going for them. Now, for the truck.Traxxas has lost some love recently (from me and others) because their prices have gotten so sky high. If you're even thinking about going to a track, go with 1/10. Perhaps your local track does, but they certainly aren't as common as 1/10. My local track doesn't even offer a 1/16 or mini class. They are good for bashing, AND they are much more popular for racing, should you decide to try it. I know you are just bashing right now, but since you even mentioned racing, I would suggest going 1/10 scale.
