Hi,I am 52 yrs old and totally new to RC and have just bought myself a second hand Tamco Recon. I ended up with this because I bought a New Bright Dodge Hemi Monster Truck for my Grandson for £8. He is only 2 years old, but I thought it would be good for him in a year or so. Of course I had to have a play and soon realised it would be a great starter toy for him, but I really enjoyed it too, so decided to get something for myself so we could go out together. I spent some time looking at various different kinds of cars, buggys and truggys, and as my house backs on to woodland decided a Buggy was for me, and found the RTR TAMCO Recon, used twice, (or FS Marauder or Reely Dune Fighter) on "a well known auction site" and got it for £50, which included an Xcelplus XtraIDry 4000mah nimh battery and a Bulldog airsoft smart charger, which I thought was a pretty good deal. I didn't want brushless as I am a complete novice, and old, and it really is Only4Fun I have been trawling through the net looking for advice etc, only to end up with dead links or totally confused with technical advice I can't understand, so decided to join an RC Forum. So here I am ! entering the new world of RC.
