Thanks mrreet2001, your post is most helpful. I just worry that if my kids have to wait on charging battery they will loose interest. Times have change a lot and tech has grown greatly. Today kids are stuck in their phones or on computers, or video games, getting them out side and doing things seems to be hard to do. I just spent $1400.00 on 3 RC cars and I hate to see them just sit in the corner of the room untouched. It is alot of money for just toys. I bought dirt bikes a few years ago and that lasted for a few weeks and then nothing. Now they sit in the garage collecting dust.
