This is one of the most important questions
that most beginners over look. Nitro powered cars are a lot faster and
required more driving skill to control. We think nitro radio controlled
cars are a lot more fun and realistic but there is also more Maintenance
required because of the nitro engine. The user will need to be prepared
to learn and understand the model and mechanics of basic hobby engines.
If you have patience and are looking for a hobby instead of a toy we
would recommend a nitro car.
Electric powered cars are much simpler and require less maintenance than
nitro. The user simply charges the batteries and runs the car. Very
little adjusting is needed. Recommended for beginners who just want to
get the model out and use it straight away.
