And thus begins little Johnny's passion for rc.
30 years later, Johnny is in his man cave assembling yet another rc kit, to add to his already vast collection of rc vehicles. And to think that this all started with that New Bright Dad picked up for him from Walmart. 😉

WLToys are absolutely much, much higher in quality than anything you'll find in a Walmart stores.
People would say that well the quality of the components of a major brand is higher, but how often do we end up having to replace certain stock parts, from these big brands, because they crap...
Well, now you know why toy grade rc exist.
I hear way too talk about the dangers of lipo batteries, yet I'm betting these are coming from the same people who handles gasoline regularly and don't think twice about it. Personally, I'm a hell of a lot more wary about gasoline than I am about lipos.
So, I guess you've answered your own question. The reason why they make toy grade is that it's safer since they don't use NiMh or lithium base batteries. Right?
Another one of my big hobbies is airguns. Most people hearing airguns will think of either bb or pellet guns from Walmart that cost from$35-$100. Consider these the equivalent of toy grade rc.
Now, what if I told you an entry level, hobby grade airgun sells for $300-$500. Would you fork out this...
