how are they?

[shibby]

ok i got one ?

i was thinking of getting a tiny rc car for my little cousin after he's been drooling over my pride and joy (micro rs4 and stampede and t-amxx....) and was wondering if they are really good for what you pay or is the ~$50 what you get?

thanks for the help if any!

shibby,

I like it....It's comparable in speed to one of the bigger just as expensive Tyco type cars and you can add stuff on unlike a Tyco, but the Tycos can take more punishment if he/she is a little kid, then get a Tyco because these are kinda fragile..

[shibby]

well he's had some experince with rc the tyco ones (pos)

and he's driven my monsters at 25mph with out one prob

what type of surface are they best on?

hey shibby how r the micro rs4's r they good in handling and speed do u no a good place to buy online

They are best on a smooth floor, hard carpet, or even a tennis court. I mostly play with mine on a tennis court and can still slide it around. I have also run it on my paved blacktop driveway, but it can get a little rough. The main problem is the ground clearance. The best car for ground clearance is the Civic, it has more than the others.

defentally a paived road with no rocks, cuz all the xmods sits soo low to the ground, also works great inside on tile or in a garage. as long as he doesnt crash it into walls and chairs all the time it should hold up.

Yea i've driven a couple of Micro RS4's and they are pretty good almost like if i was driving one of my 1/10 scale touring cars...I have heard real good things about the Mini XXX-T.

IMHO...indoors and in garages (unless these people are talking about parking garages) aren't enough room to run these things. I haven't tried it outside on the blacktop yet, but indoors and in a 2 car garage is not enough room. I've only ran mine in the parking garage at work and that's pretty fun. Would be a great place to race..

After I got the K3 for my MS4 this is like a turtle, but 6 cell it, put your own electronics in AWD, S2 Motor, Suspension upgrade and it's great, but still my K3 went 300x faster
