RE: Starting out.
Can I suggest , like always to go with Electric??
Like most of the Guys I drift with, they were all nitro lovers untill they saw the power of a well built electric drifter and they all have now sold their Nitro's for Electrics and are now reaping the rewards of being able to just Charge and go..
No more mess
Fuel expense
Cold morning Starts
or re-tuning..
The Best advice any one can give is
Go and attend a Drift meet or RC meet and see and decide for your self
Weigh up the Fun VS Cost factor and Really decide for yourself..
