Anyone into RC racing or RC in general. I have an HPI RS4 Pro. Liquid has an RS4 Nitro.

i have a nitro rs4....15fe pullstart engine and my mods goes up to 65mph. i was tellin cjthor the other day that i had a 200mm mx3 body made by taking the mold of an eclipse and modding the headlight and taillights at a hobby shop. pictures soon hopefully.

Have a vaccum mold made. I may buy some from ya. I'm having a wood carving made of my RS. Then gonna try and have a vaccume mold made of it. So I can have my car as an RC.<P>My car is an RC4 Pro.

post pics of this body please. I'd like to see it.

I have a couple of questions for you guys if you don't mind.<P>My bro wants to get into R/C and I thought that i would look into finding one for him ( a gift ) but don't know where to start. What I was wondering is what is or what type of r/c is a good one to start a person off with. meaning motor and speed and all around fun. Anyways I would want to buy kinda midstream like not cheap but I don't want to break out in a loan either just a good middle to upper class car. Any suggestions would be grand or even if you have a web site to look around. <P>I would like more objective opinions than that of a sales man that just wants to sell a r/c to someone who has no idea.<P>Thanx<BR>Mike

if your looking to get an RC car. Gas is better in alot of cases, but electric is better for beginners. this is NOT a cheap hobby. Expect to spend atleast 200+ bucks. <BR>you need (if not included) <BR>The controller, battery charger, batteries.<BR>Make SURE u read what your getting. Some RTR's arent upgradeable.<BR>My fav kits are HPI and Team Asscociated.

i think hpi's website is <A HREF="http://www.hpiracing.com" TARGET=_blank>www.hpiracing.com</A> ....yea and electric would be better for beginners. they usually sell kits in the "RTR" series which means ready-to-run. some of them cannot be modified so i would start off with the nitro and other series if you're really good at doing your research.

Update, my RC car isnt an RS4 pro, its an RS4 Pro 2.

I was in a hobby shop in my area and they had a "kit" for 369 ready to run with upgradeable engines and cf or steel steering parts.

I started working on a new body this weekend. Its a 190MM 3rd Gen Veilside RX-7. <P>Here are the pics<BR> <BR> <BR> <BR>

wow did you paint it first before putting the cf sticker or vice versa? VERY clean job.

Ok thanks fella's for the help I will let you know what I find for him. Take it easy <P>Mike
