Dont buy any RC you can buy at Toys R Us, Wal-Mart, Target, Radio-Shack, or other general stores. Go to a specialty hobby shop. They dont make parts for those cars, but for real R/Cs they do.

Yes mike said the right stuff. I was going to say the same thing. Don't get cheap stuff. They break to easyily. Trust me on that one.

Jada makes toys, if you want something tunable, you'll have to move up to something on a hobby level, as was mentioned.
Even the RTR cars can be tuned more than anything you'll get from a toy store.

Re: Are there any Jada RC Upgrades???

I dont think that there are any upgrades for them because they are too cheap for a bigger car.

Those bodies are plastic. Rc bodies are lexan. You would need to make up a mount for it.

Re: Are there any Jada RC Upgrades???

im sure you could, just go to a hobby shop, pick up a body you like that is about the same size, then customize it so it fits


also everyone knows that jada makes r/c in 1:10, 1:12, and 1:18 scales right?

Re: Are there any Jada RC Upgrades???

The Jada R/C's arent to scale. They say 1/10, but they are bigger than 1/10 and they arent 1/8 either.
