Is this "toy grade"?

Post by PimpFloyd »

Saw the following on my local Craigs List tonight. 10 bucks but kids lost the controller.

I was curious if anyone recognizes it as a hobby grade or toy.

Also listed was a Losi Mini LST for $80 bucks with batteries and radio but the description say it needs a new diff. Good deal?

Thanks for any input!

That looks like one of the old Radio Shack RCs...probably not great, but if it had the same transaxle as the Golden Arrows you might be able to put it some some use if you want to do some fabricating in the future. The rest of it would be useless though.
