RE: Unassembled Kits or Assembled Kits
Unassembled is the only way to go. When I first got into this hobby in '83 that's all there were. They were just a rolling chassis. You supply the engine, pipe and radio. Of course I do mostly racing. But I do bash with an HPI Baja B5 SS. But they came out with that as the SS kit and I bought it. When you build it yourself then you get to know how it all goes together and have a better understanding of how it works and it makes it easier to understand when you have to repair and/or maintain it. And there's the pride of building it too. And its a whole lot easier than 1:1 cars. I would never get an RTR if I can avoid it. So far so good. And if its already assembled, it isn't really a kit, is it? Do you mean an assembled rolling chassis and you supply the engine and radio?
