My Aunt just came by to visit (had knee surgery and relatives/friends have been visiting me at my parents) and she got an R/C Car Action magazine for something to read in the meantime. Damn, I haven't been into r/c for about 15 years. Seems they've come a long way.
Logged into TowerHobbies and start doing dome math. By the time I get into chargers, remotes, brushless motors, ESCs, the car/truck, LiPos, and "miscellaneous", and it seems I'll need about $1000 to get into this. That seem about right? Not quite sure if I'd do on road or off road. But it'd be 1/10 scale and definitely electric. I'd probably do the Traxxas Slash if I went off road and an Associated TC for on road car. I'd REALLY like to get into some of the scale stuff I read here, but I don't think I have the skill or patience to get that into it.
But anywho, its safe to say I'm looking at roughly $1000 to $1500 right? If that's the case, I'll just have to wait until I have the Zuk a little more trail ready. hehe
