Radio Controlled Cars for Newbies

Racing radio controlled cars is a fantastically exciting hobby. Probably the first question you need to answer is whether to choose a nitro powered or electrically powered RC car.

As a general rule nitro RC cars are really best for someone who has gained a little experience. And to get that vital experience I recommend you start with an electric RC car.

Electric RC cars are simpler. They are much quieter and don’t require the routine maintenance that nitro powered cars demand. The negative side is that they are less realistic than those with a nitro engine and they can be less powerful.

But there are some fantastic electric RC cars that are equal to any nitro powered model. I recommend that you buy at least two and maybe three battery packs if you have the funds. Battery packs can generally be charged in around 3 minutes but some only last for about 5 minutes so it is always worthwhile buying a few to make the most of your car.

I love off road rc cars, especially dune buggys which I take to the sand dunes on some beached near to where I live. I take along several fully charged battery packs so that I can get as much time as possible jumping around the sand dunes.

The key advantage of electric over nitro powered radio controlled cars is how easy they are to maintain. Nitro powered cars use real mini engines with real mini filters that need to be changed regularly. Electric RC cars are much simpler and therefore much more suitable for beginners and youngsters.

You can find both electric and nitro RC cars in kit for and this can bring another aspect of enjoyment and satisfaction to the hobby. Building your own RC car is a great learning experience and can be immensely satisfying. But, again, I strongly recommend that you start off with an electric car and then maybe progress to a nitro powered model if you enjoy the hobby.
