RE: Where do you order your RC parts?

RE: Servo/Radio reccomendations for FG onroad

I agree with 46u get a good radio preferably a 4 channel so you can use separate throttle and brake servos. You'll need to run 2 brake servos if the car is set up to allow for front/rear brake...

I use RPM ball cups on all of my 1/10 cars. I also use Lunsford Ti ball studs too on some of my better cars, they do not wear out at all.
