What rc vehicle?

[joshwalker094]

Thing is though an x525 is £220 ish rtr, so is it worth it once you factor in transmitter and lipo of about £100 :/

What about this nitro

If you're going monster truck, the Revo is much better than the T-Maxx or HPI Savage. It has a more squat stance so much more stable when cornering.

But that t maxx is good price

There are a few things to consider FPV wise.
1) The hardest part of any flight is the landing, so practice this Non-FPV. Especially as the FPV view can be misleading on approach.

2) Always build up your range slowly and carefully, its very easy to get distracted by something and going beyond your working range!

3)FPV is easier to fly around, as you don't have to think in mirror when your flying towards yourself, but its important to be competent at flying normally in case of video failures.

Otherwise, have fun an do your research to avoid dissapointment. check out the rcgroups website they have a section on FPV.

So what about this

He'd let me have it for £100.
Last run two months ago perfect.
He found the starter but has no fuel as he's running a 23cc 2stroke now,
He's going to see if he can get some

Looks like a load of grief to me mate. Your call tho. You'll get frustrated and it'll be gummed up

I wouldn't buy a second hand nitro unless I was prepared to rebuild the engine (which I would be because that's fun!!!)

This had just caught my eye

unless you have a good simlator or someone prepared to go buddybox with you i wouldn't, it will end in tears

but if you were to get into proper IC model flying that would be a perfect package, radio is a bit meh but it would do for a beginner, SC's can be a bit meh aswell but once there set up properly they good for the money.

i would say that would go for more than 100 but if you had someone to go buddybox its the perfect starter, sounds like he's had a few rough landings with it but that not uncommon.... ring around some flying clubs near you, some offer free tuition!
