Tamiya 1/10 Porsche 911 RSR

Hi all I know very little about rc cars (built several ships) 

I've convinced my missus to get it for me for my 65th birthday jadlam do a bundle which includes everything to get it running for 196 quid, are there any problems with the kit, will it be too fast for a complete newbie, how easy are cars to control (ships, or the type I've built tend to be slow and so very easy to control) how robust are they (ships tend to be quite fragile)

Hi, I too recently acquired this kit. I plan to build mine as a display model only. I understand that additional equipment is required to make it a runner. Although great fun, I would be not happy to damage it!

Trying to decide if I will paint it white or silver. Good luck ?

I did a check and it works out a lot more expensive to buy the RC stuff separately (also I wouldn't be sure if the components I bought were compatible together)I did see there are bundle packs for the kits so maybe you could go that way.

Thanks for the info.
