    Getting back into this after decades out of it is unbelievable. Everything has changed soooo much. The electronics especially, this should come as no surprise to me since much of my career was spent in Hi-Rel electronics (micro electronics at that), but to see it in RC is cool. I have alot to...

    WickedFog, I was looking at both of those in fact. What would you recommend for the balance of the necessary items like controllers, tires (mounted) servos, ESC, batteries, motor, gears, etc. I want to make sure I get everything and quality items so I don't waste time energy and money. There...

    First of all, please be kind for such a newbie question. I am just getting back into RC cars after decades of absence. I got out of it after my boys lost interest.
