Post by: mateen270 on June 17, 2014, 01:43:44 AM
hey everyone!,
so iv always loved RC since im a kid. now i finally can buy my first hobby electric vehicle and i want to start from scratch. so im stuck between 2 completely opposite picks. an on road or an offroad. well i stay in bangalore with alot of roads around me. but i know off roading is also alot of fun.! so i have 2 kits in mind and i would like to know your opinion on which kit would be more suited for INDIA (Overall) from what you oown what do you prefer an on road or an off road??

so iv decided on this kit if im buying an On Road.

If you aren't looking for water proof then modelart sandstorm is great. I currently own that truggy. It's terrifying, scarily fast, tough and upgradable (thought I haven't upgraded, but I have read at many places that it is upgradable). And it's the best hobby grade entry level rc. I bought it from flipkart for 5500rs. Think about it and comfort yourself. Do tell me if you buy sandstorm(e can look for upgrades together :-P)
