RE: Good starter car
Dude, I cant see how recharging Batts is any different to Topping up a Nitro Car???
When Drifting on Polypipe, a 4200mah Batt lasts longer then my Mates 200ml Tank..
And if you have a decent Battery Charger and 3 Batts of around 3000mah, You can Drift one, Charge one Cool one and the down time in between is what the Electric Motor needs to cool down with anyway...
My 4200mah Batt Gets me a good 45-50 mins of Constant Drifting.. there is next to no resistance on an Electric Motor when Drifting on Polypipe tyres and when I switch to Street racing I still get 30 mins of Good Speed and Good acceleration on rubber tyres..
and my SJ Swallow Advance Charges at 5amps so my 4200 Batt is peaked in 45mins.. and by then I have already Plugged in my Precharged 4200mah Batt and I am off again...
It is after all up to you, But don't write off electrics due to Battery charging as these days, there is hardly any dis advantage and in RC Drifting , Electrics are far better at Technical Drift then the Nitro's....and with the Bonus of being able to drift indoors at most RC Tracks as I know plenty who wont let Nitro's run... and best of all, there is hardly any Engine tuning involved! an Electric Will run in Warm, Hot or Freezing weather without re-tuning!!
