I have 4 RC cars because of this. They’re amazing and I still use them, but not like I did when the hobby first got injected into my veins.
I bought a 1/6 scale pos off a friend years ago, just for shits and giggles to see how much power I could dump into it before it blew up. After a bit it got shelved, and sat in the garage for a couple of years. This spring I dumped another couple hundred dollars into it to get it running again.. new esc, brushless motor, batteries, some lights, and a new steering servo. Used it twice and now it's been sitting again collecting dust for the last 5 months.
I have a cheap Arrma Voltage I did this with. It was my first RC car and I had a blast with it. Then I got curious about improving it and pushing it to its limits. I put better wheels on it, some lights, and dropped a Spektrum Firma Motor in it with the Smart ESC. The thing wheelies everywhere and basically becomes a missile lmao. If you turn it upside down and go full speed, the wheels balloon like crazy.
Sounds like it's time to get into fpv drones next.
Granted I did actually use all of the rc cars this year, so I'm making progress.
