Electric RC car, help needed.?
Hello, I'm a beginner in this field!
I want to get into RC cars by starting with this:

Any tips on what you must do and have ? Any suggestions on good equipment( batteries, battery chargers ecc.) are welcomed.
Oh, and what do you think of this RC car?
Thanks in advance

Tamiya make some of the best RC vehicles out there. The dark impact is a good buggy. To get it running, you'll need:
1.A radio system with/and and ESC(electronic speed control)

2. At least one battery pack. You may want more later.

3. A good battery charger.

4. You will need Polycarbonate or lexan paint to paint the body(on the inside).

You'll want to buy it in spray can form, unless you are experienced with an air brush or spray gun.
5.Lastly, you'll need simple tools to build it, such as a #0 and #1 phillips screw driver, hobby knife and scissors.
Feel free to message me if you have any questions.

I suggest that you buy a chargable battery so you will not buy any batteries. buying batteries will cost you a lot of money.
I also suggest that you buy a off-road RC that can drive up on bumpy roads but it may cost you a lot…
If your rich, you can follow my suggestions so it will be fun
