Made the most of the snow yesterday and had a great time drifting around the snowy woods. Perfect setting for rc rally lovers. I hope you all enjoy watching.

I see what you mean from both sides I've considered getting a kit car and I like the idea of it. But his birthday isn't far off and for now a rtr is something I can afford. I've not long got a car myself. If my son takes to rc then I'll look at doing a custom build with him. Thanks everyone for the advice it's much appreciated and given me plenty of good ideas Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Thanks I was looking at the Ripmax models. They look good enough to get started Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Thanks for this there's a lot to choose from. This is probably put of my budget for now but if he really likes rc I'll look at getting a kit model next year Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Thanks for the recommendation I'll check it out. Have you come across Ripmax models before I was looking at this https://www.modelsport.co.uk/ripmax-1-12-rough-racer-buggy/rc-car-products/423130 Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Yeah he's tried mine but it's very quick. Something slower would be ideal and able to take lots of crashing. When he gets a bit more experience I'll look at a bigger car Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

I shouldn't do a post late in the day haha I've got the Maverick strada rx. He loves it but also said he wouldn't mind a truck /buggy Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Haha that would make a creepy toy [emoji4] Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Haha bloody predictive text. I haven't seen any rc cats but it would be fun to see a cat racing around the park Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Hey everyone my 6yr old loves my rc cat and want 1 of his own any recommendations? I'm not looking to spend more than £80 he prefers buggy/truck Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Thanks glad u liked it [emoji4] yeah there was plenty of 'moments' haha its going to take some time to get used to the car Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Hey everyone I took my car out for its 1st run in the woods. This is the best of the footage I got (I crashed a fair bit haha) I'm sure after a few more runs it'll get better. Anyways please feel free to check it out and let us know what you think [emoji4] Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Hey everyone I'm new to rc and just been treated to the maverick strada rx. I'm looking forward to trying it out in the woods this weekend and the car makes it back in 1 piece [emoji4] Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

I give it a blast with a hairdryer after cleaning [emoji4] Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

I got this from Santa (with the help of my wife) had the chance to take it out in the snow it was ace [emoji4] Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Thanks it was ace while it lasted. If I gave it some thought I could of made a track in the snow 1st. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Sounds awesome I bet seeing the snow flicking off the wheels looked cool (pun intended) at night Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Yeah I bet the snow was perfect. Fingers crossed for the weekend gonna head into the woods to give the car a proper test [emoji4] Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

I hope those who got snow made the most of it. I enjoyed a bit of drifting till my car got completely clogged haha check the above link of a shirt clip I made Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Hi Dave I've just got the maverick strada rx brushless. If you're into rally it's perfect and you can get it for £175 Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

Thanks again I'm new to rc so your help is appreciated I'm sure I'll have some questions at some point Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

My hero thank you ! All sorted now the manual that came with the car was lacking some important info for programming Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

Hey everyone I'm new to the forum and was wondered if anyone can offer some guidance. I have a maverick strada rx brushless and for some reason I can't get it to reverse. I'm guessing it's something to do with the esc setting but I'm struggling. When I pull the trigger for brake/ reverse the brake works and the led is lit on the esc but it doesn't reverse. Also it's unclear in the guise what you need to do to run lipo batteries Many thanks Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

sorry to bother everyone, although the ftx looks decent for the money I can't help but look at alternatives to compare, if I can stretch my pennies I'm looking at The Kyosho Fazer ve-x anyone with thoughts on that model?
