I have about $100k invested in R/C, what would you like to know??

 

and I thought the $65 for the R/C Dodge Ram I bought for fun while camping was steep!

 

Well I what would be a good starter for her,she is 14. I dont want to spend a lot of money if possible??

 

Traxxus makes some good ready-to-runs.... check out tower hobbies, they have quite a selection... or at least they did when I was "big" into R/C as a youth.

 

Traxxas makes excellent equiptment, thats what i started with. Both gas and electric for very reasonable prices. They have a good supply of replacement parts which you will need, take it from experience.
If she is new to this stuff, I would start with an electric truck, Stampeed or rustler or maybe even the Emax if you desire. They are pretty tuff, cheap to fix and can be upgraded pretty easily. If she stays with it you can upgrade to gas and then the $ FUN $ begins..

PS: Traxxas is available at almost all hobby shops around the country and at most internet hobby stores.

 

Thanks guys,I knew I could depend on ya

 

the new Revo is SWEEEEET ...................... the T-max has more aftermarket support than almost any other truck out there.
