I just bought my first RC Car. I bought the ’21 Bronco made by traxxis. I went with this particular one because the price was reasonable as entry into the hobby. So far I enjoy the hobby. Id like to get a plane as well…preferably a fighter jet?
Nice man.

A couple weeks ago I got the Traxxas Stampede 4x4 BL-S2. Didn't get the VXL version. No need to spend that much. I can always upgrade to the VXL motor and speed controller later, but right now it does what I want. Bought the wife a Hosim too. Nice little truck for her. She doesn't bash like I do.

I think this redbull plane is cursed. Maiden started off well after installing the new ESC yesterday. Plane went up did some patterns and some harrier’s and my buddy asked to fly it, so I handed him the TX he did a pop top and the plane made this crazy screeching sound in the air. He handed the control back I landed it gave it throttle to taxi back and it started smoking! The ESC blew up!! So, I think the motor is faulty.

Finally got the redbull plane in the air and burned some packs in it. Did have a small issue after I did a rolling harrier and a crankshaft I lost elevator and some how glided the plane down into some tall weeds and didn’t damage it. The servo head screw backed itself out. Put a new screw in and flew the rest of the day. It was a bit windy so I was pretty careful, but it went well!
