Buying a new or used RC model car is a rewarding and exciting process. Gas or electric? Truck or car? Helicopter or plane? There are many considerations you must address before making these decisions. However, there are 5 top factors that will help you on your decision.

Battery or gas?

The major factors determining your choice here are run time and noise. Gas RC cars, trucks, planes, or helicopters are usually loud, even with a muffler installed. The advantage of gas RC’s are that they can run a lot longer with a tank of fuel versus a battery powered RC. The average battery life on a RC vehicle will give you roughly 10 to 25 minutes of run time - at full speed. Some radio control trucks and cars deplete energy faster due to accessories like lights, horns and other gadgets.

If you are planning to assemble your own RC nitro car, then you may find the engine of the car to be the toughest part of the job. The favorite of the RC nitro car racers is of course the 2 stroke motors. It is the choice for speed because it is capable of producing 2.5 hp with its 23 cc displacement engine, which is quite an achievement for a RC nitro car. The 2 stroke engine is more suited for the smaller RC nitro cars adequately tuned for on-road races, you would find it so as you realize the fast pick up and velocity offered by these small 2 stroke engines. What the 2 stroke engine needs to run that fast and produce the high rpm is a fusion of fuel and oil.

A 4 stroke engine is more suited to the off-road RC nitro car racers like a monster truck or the like. These heavier and bigger RC nitro cars are perfect for the high powered 4 stroke engines as they deliver more torque and power ideally suited to these bigger ones and also due to the off-road dirt tracks that they may race on. The fuel requirement is also quite different for these as compared to the smaller on-road RC nitro cars, they carry oil-tankers and run on straight fuel.
