Hello to all,
I am new to this area of R/C, just gas planes til now. I was wondering if there are and sub $100 R/C tanks that will work in the snow? If so, what brand and scale?

I have read here that the 1/16th scale HL's tend to be less than reliable, is that right out of the box, or do they continue to break down even if it works correctly when first purchased?

I am use to NiCads with my planes, so the idea of constantly replacing AA batteries is a real turn off. Is is possible to convert the standard AA batteries over to a NiCad pack? If so, how is that done? I have very little knowledge when it comes to electronics.

Thanks in advance
