But How Much?

In comparison with some other hobbies, RC carscan get somewhat expensive, depending on your level of commitment to it. Even if you build your own RC car or truck and save the cost of the ready to run kits, additional parts and fuel and battery packs can add up, not to mention the entry fees for races if you plan to compete.But beware of the widely-available cheaper versions which claim to be good quality RC vehicles. These break easily and cannot be repaired like hobby-quality RC’s, which can be maintained to run smoothly for years and fixed properly if anything ever goes wrong. Expect to spend at least $200.00 per vehicle initially, with a more complete beginner setup costing about $400.
