Need advice - What to get?

[Hitman]

Hi, I'm new here but have always liked remote control models. When I was young I had a Tamiya Grasshopper which was huge fun.

So, now I'm looking at what's available now and to see if I'd like to get back into it. What would you guys recommend? A friend who told me about this forum also suggested that a Team Associated B4 was a good choice. What do you guys think.

Thanks

Yes b4 would be a good choice for first car they are popular so won't have a problem with setup tips and spares are easy to get hold of

So where could I find a second hand example that is in a fair condition for me to try it out. Ebay only has new examples it seems.

you might as well buy one of the ready to run examples, complete with radio gear etc., makes more sense financially as everything you get is new and guaranteed. Then if you decide you dont like it and want to sell it, you can recover more cash.

This would be a good starting point CLICKY

Thanks, I'm looking at what's available online atm.

Are there any particularly good online retailers I should use? Also, does a RTR model need any more accessories to run it?

You will need a LIPO Battery and Charger for it.
