Hi guys,
I have been interested in getting myself one of these for a while, but the initial outlay including all accessories always put me off. I then decided that would rather buy second hand and learn the in's and outs of a used one.
While I have been reading up on the different types and accessories I feel like there's allot more i need to learn. I am looking for a car for drifting, since I have the space I can take advantage of a race car and even a buggy. My son of 3yrs has developed an affinity for all forms of transport so need to consider him using it as well.
I came across the following ad and to me looks like a great deal but was hoping some experienced RC owners can shed some extra info and questions that might need to ask the seller. Are there things to look out for? What would a collection like below sell for?
