alexxdj1 Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 I just bought an electric Team Associated SC10 factory kit which is a self build model lacking a motor, controller, radio box, battery, etc. This set comes with some upgraded components however I want to ease this model into a competition truck in the future. Does anyone have any insight as to which remaining compenents are good for a beginner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexxdj1 Posted August 5, 2011 Author Share Posted August 5, 2011 There is a site nearby that races every Wednesday and Friday night. I'll keep that in mind and ask around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridgeracer Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 If you have been out of the hobby for a while, a lot has changed technology wise. Check out rcgroups.com. Should be a good primer in regards to 2.4Ghz radio systems, LIPO batteries, and brushless motor systems.

You have brushless motor/ esc/ and LIPO battery combos outperforming nitro cars. Some ppl actually mod some gas cars to electric.
