Hey guys,
I'm beginning the RC hobby, and I do not know much about RCs at all. I was wondering what you guys think I should get. I'm not sure if I want 2WD or 4WD... With 4WD I can do a lot more stuff, great traction etc., but I think I would have more fun with 2WD doing powerslides and stuff like that.
What I would mostly be doing with my RC would be playing around in the desert, jumping some huge jumps, racing through dirt and rocks and weeds etc. I'm thinking a RC18T may be better for me, but I am not sure.
And I do not care if you think the mini-t is way worse than the RC18T. The mini-t will be my 2wd car, and if I get 4wd, I will get the RC18T.
Any opinions on what would be better for me? This is mainly like "2WD vs 4WD" than "RC18T vs Losi Mini-T".
Also, what is the difference between the mini-t pro, and the regular one?
Thank you,
Michael
P.S. If anybody has an RC for cheap, I only have about $100 to start on this hobby, so I would be willing to buy a used one. Refurbs get sold on Team Associated for $100, so I don't think this is asking too much for a Losi or a RC18T. If you are into websites, I am a professional freelancer and can make you whatever website you want in exchange for a discount in the price. The value of an entire website, multiple templates, contact page, some flash widget, etc. is about $80, and will be more or less according to what you want. My portfolio is at http://designandprogram.com if you are interested.
EDIT: Also does the mini t come with rechargeable batteries and a charger?
