RC tanks are universal for fun regardless of who makes it. A car you need a relatively flat surface, even the "off road" cars. A plane you need a perfect day to fly it depending on the scale. A tank, you can it out in the rain, snow, muck, and rough. As long as you dont go too wild with it there will be no problems. I get laugh about these guys who have the 60 MPH cars who can only run on relatively dry days and perfectly flat surfaces. Its even more fun when they zoom too close to your tank and just happen to get caught under its 1/6 tracks.
