![]() If you go for a high-end model, ensure that replacement parts and upgrades are readily available. Less expensive RC cars generally have a two-button remote control, and those on the higher end have 2.4 GHz (a speedy signal transmission speed) pistol-grip style remotes with more advanced steering and throttles. For example, rock climbers don’t have to be incredibly fast to tackle boulders but they need powerful high-torque motors, whereas you’ll want a race car that can hit at least 35 miles per hour. Speed varies depending on what the car is built to do. You’ll often see the RC car’s scale listed, especially for model cars, representing its size to the real deal. The types of vehicles to choose from include off-road 4x4s and buggies, rock crawlers (built for more rigid, extreme off-roading), and drift cars (best for turns), so you’ll need to decide which you or your child will most enjoy. There are hobby-grade RC cars and toy cars designed for kids, with the latter typically costing less money for less power (though some offer impressive performance at a low price). Cars can be labeled RTR even if the batteries are sold separately, though, so make sure to check the packaging. While shopping, you may see the initials “RTR” in product descriptions, which stands for “ready to race.” This means you can start playing with it right out of the box or after charging, with no extra parts required to get it up and running. ![]()
