Hi!
I've over the last year had tons of fun with my electric 1/18 RC Buggy. It can go a little more than 40 mph, and i really enjoy driving it.
I'm getting pretty good at driving it, but i think it's very anoying to charge batteries for such a short driving time - and new batteries are expensive! Overall, i also feel a little 'meh'. Its fun driving, but it lacks something.
Yesterday i was in my local RC hobby store, and the seller introduced me to this 1/5 petrol-drivin RC buggy. It looked awesome, and i felt really tempted to buy it. It was a baja something (i don't quite remember - i just want an overall response about petrol RC cars).
I really want to buy it, but I'm concerned that there is too much maintenence going in to it. Of course the seller - as the seller should - told me that there wasn't much more maintenence than just to clean it and ultimately make sure nothing was blocking the intake. This seems easy, and almost too good to be true. I want to be able to drive it, wait a month, and then still be able to fire it on without doing much. Is it possible? Is a petrol car worth it?
