Default RE: Purchase XRC?

To say that the XRC is low quality would be quite an understatement! You would be better off with a 1/5 electric toy from the Walmart! It would probably break alot less. It's no point saving money to find that you get something that remains broken all the time and you don't get to use it much. You might as well buy it for a display model or maybe a tricked out paperweight. Smartech/Carson/Tian Qi/DURATRAX models aren't much more and have much better quality as well as interchangability with many FG and HARM parts. DURATRAX even offers what they call a stress-tech parts warranty on most of the major plastics on the car so that for the first year you own the car if you break one of the parts covered (like a suspension arm) they will replace it free of charge! That's a great deal for anyone starting out.
