Default RE: Need advice on first RC.

Are you saying i won't get a receiver with any of the choices? Or that i will need to get a better one? Straight off.

Say I did go for the Xray XB8R, and you say that .21 engine which is going to be another £100 that's £350

Or I found one with a Nosram RS .21 EVO Buggy Engine for £349 (KIT + Engine)

What else do I need?

Can you recommend parts for each of the extra things i will need (you're convincing me to go this way)

I'm gona create a part list, if i can get family to buy the other parts that i havn't yet mentioned, then this won't be a problem, but family and "gifts" and i shouldn't expect them but i do [&o] they might decide not to ask me for the first time ever and get me socks or something.

Anyway, So far on the list I have:

XRay XB8R Off Road Bugy Kit - £245
+
Thunder Tiger Pro 21 BX-R - £108.30
or
Xray XB8R Off Road Buggy Kit w/ Nosram RS .21 EVO Buggy Engine £349

Radio: ?

Receiver: ?

Servo: ?

Tube?

Wat else do I need to buy?

I might buy the parts, if i can get a list together/get people to buy me stuff and aim to have a complete car by christmas. That way i can spread it out a bit and still get an ace car.

Problem is, i can't see myself ever racing it, i can't find any race tracks near me so i'll just be drivin it round like mad for fun, anywhere i can find.
