Want to thank all of you fuckers for getting me interested in this. Found a hobby shop about 3 miles from my house.
My 10 year old is pretty into this type of stuff, and enjoys wrenching a bit, so she will be my out when my wife flips. Thinking of a 1/10 or 1/8 truck for her(us) for X-mas.

Never got into cars much but did fly rc planes for a while. Still got an E flite valiant in a box I haven’t taken out yet.
Peak of flying was between 10 and 20 years ago. Flew glow planes with dad and eventually got a jet.
Yourmomjustcalled- what’s that you got in the ceiling? Looks like a sport cub or other STOL model. Gas, glow or electric?

So after messing with the 144001 for a couple of weeks, some thoughts.
This is a great cheap car for paved surfaces, sand and baseball diamonds. Haven't gotten bored at all yet.
However in rougher terrain like construction areas any encounter at full speed with ~fist sized rocks or larger will result in damage. Parts are dirt cheap, but again, 2-3 weeks shipped from China.
Also worth mentioning I picked up a 1/28 car over the winter during lockdown and enjoyed using it on a track I made in my basement. Entertained me for more hours than I want to admit.
