ohh ok, good luck

all brand also expensive, but if compare Tamiya to Yokomo of course Tamiya is cheaper

i went to the a normal shop nearby my hse..and those fuel type car is abt 1k for whole set...capalang brand...duno good or no..

but i think better buy little branded wan...coz will feel more satisfied

dont get fuel car, get en electric powered one

but battery...wont last long rite

if you get a 4200mAH battery like how I recommend, then it will last for about 30-45 minutes depending on charger. The more expensive the charger, the longer lasting the battery (dont ask me why)

LOL...when buy the car give car + charger? or buy battery+charger?

nope, when buy car means you buy car, only again same theory, what if you wanted to buy high performance battery? if they included low performance battery then wasted pulak right?

so battery comes with charger or separate?

seperate, all seperate

if you look at the box(mine anyways), it should say "Required For Operation (not included) : *2ch Radio Control System with Electric Speed Controller, *Batteries x 8, *7.2V-1400~2000mAh Ni-Cd Battery, *Battery Charger, *540 Class Motor"

btw, how long on average does 1400mAh Ni-Cd batteries usually last? cause im using that at the moment and it seems kinda short. what batteries do you guys use?

that's not even including the servo unit yet 1400's can only go for 8 minutes max on my car haha! I have a 4200 and 3800, but funny the 3800 lasts longer... not to mention the 4200 is a matched cell pack, as in each cell's voltage is matched. I'm going to invest in a good 5ampere charger soon so that can get more kick out of my batts

5Amp? wont that like shorten the battery cycle or something? i just bought a 1.5Amp charger cause the old one went dead.
1400 about less than 10 mins on mine too, guess that's the average. how much did you buy the 3800 for?

Yes it will, but I'd rather a enjoy a short period than sulk for a long period got it second hand for RM70, but new it runs for around RM100. Intelec brand IIANM

my current one also is 2.5 and it cant give me serious juice, so thats also why i wanna get a better one

the better charger cost abt how much ar?

300-400 depending on brand. and for most of them you have to buy seperate transformer..

whoa...so 650+350+100(average 4 batt) + 400(average for control)...1500...O_O...faint

lol no la... like this

650 + 300 (basic remote and servo) + 200 (basic charger and 3300mAH standard battery buy together)

all this buy together RM1100 can get kua

but i wan a better battery and charger...more satisfying

just bought and sawed off some pvc pipes. the one i got is bigger than the wheels so just gonna glue the wrecked tyres inside em as buffer. i hope it works

eric, might i suggest getting a second hand set first? everything'll be bundled together and much cheaper. once you get the feel of things, u can get additional stuff for upgrading the car.

wow, you actually went through sawing it yourself, salute you

seconded, Eric, you dont need a better charger either for starter's kit, I just want a better charger because I want more kick from it. besides, above 3amp charger will shorten the battery life drastically. FYI I'm selling my Ansmann 2.5amp charger, going for RM70
