Default RE: New to Large Scale Cars - Advice Needed


ORIGINAL: willclark77

I also have to agree that 1/5 is just too big for someone that age. Pictures and videos do not do their size justice. After experiencing my first (and last) runaway a year or two ago I gained a new respect for how dangerous a 35 lb projectile going 40+ mph.
That is why I will not run mine with out a remote kill switch and never have in the 3 plus years I been running large scale just to much of a liability not counting the damage to your vehicle. I am guessing you now run a remote kill switch or I sure hope so.
