Traxxas Rustler is $200 and nearly indestructible. Fast, fun, and tons of parts available. Perfect first RC.

Honestly this should be in the FAQ. Beginners ask this every single week.

Building from a kit

Balsa wood kit build is incredibly satisfying. Takes 40+ hours but you know every piece of that airplane.

I was skeptical at first but you convinced me. Going to give it a shot this week.

Started with a trainer on a buddy box. Crashed 5 times before my first successful landing. Worth every penny in repairs!

Nitro vs electric debate

Nitro sounds and smells amazing. Electric is easier to maintain and run. Brushless motors have closed the speed gap.

My experience: it depends on your specific situation but generally this is good advice.
