Very broad question. There's many types of electric vehicles. Both 1/10th scale and 1/8th scale. What's your budget like?

For bashing with 1/10th scale, a Slash is fun. 1/8th scale has E-truggies and E-buggies as well as Monster trucks like the Savage Flux and E-Revo. They're technically not 1/8th scale but they're the same size. The 1/10th scale vehicles are generally cheaper. Do you want to race, or bash?

i have a budget of abround 500 give or take i like the savage flux my mate has one and its nuts but he paid 800 so im not to sure what to do. What im worried about is parts wise if i do break anything what car is the easiest car to get parts for. also i just want it for bashing just having a fun time i find going racing that people are to bitchy.

build an electric ofna buggy. They are cheap to get going for what you get. 3-400 bucks with a mmm system and it will be fast and super tough
