Choosing Your First Remote Control Truck

Exclusive Summary about RC Truck By Jason E Gordon


I would advise you pick yourself up an RTR (ready to run) kit to begin with. If you do plan to build your own truck then allow yourself 3-5 days to put it together.

You can expect to pay $50 – $100 more for a ready to run RC nitro truck and you will probably be looking at paying $300 – $500 for a good level reliable RC truck.

You will obviously need some nitro fuel and a fuel bottle is a better option for refuelling to avoid any fuel spillage. As well as this you will need a glow plug heater and you may need an electric starter pack if your truck does not have a pull cord start.

It is also recommended to have some oil for routine lubrication maintenance after its first run. All in all these extras should not cost you any more than $50 – $100.

Yes, this can be an expensive hobby, but weigh this up against the adrenalin pumping action of these RC monster trucks and there is no contest!
