Compare to other RC car....NTC3 is by far the EASIEST car that I can do about cleaning....remove 4 screws, twist off the brake end cap, pop off the throttle linkage off the engine carb, pop off the steering linkage at the steering servo, the whole RADIO deck is off...

Then remove the engine will the pipe..........spray denatured alcohol all over and spray compressed air over.....car is like new in less then 15 minutes (did that last night after sunday 30 minutes A main...)

And yes...I don't feel comfortable about spray any liquid form of stuff over radio equipment, and I don't care how many ppl say denatured alcohol is OK with elect..............all I know is my receiver plus 2 servos are about $210 in total....
