This ought to be fun 
Comes with all the radio gear. I think all I need for it is a glow plug driver, some fuel and a few batteries. Will take it to work and see if I can give it a go around the carpark when I collect it 
P.S. cheers to the guy who bottled me for funding this, you're a cunt, but I got a new toy and you got sent to prison for 9 months

Was ages ago, got bottled for no reason while I was out with my mates. Guy got sent down after pleading not guilty despite CCTV, witnesses and forensic evidence. What a fool.

Yea, the carbs on them are a bit annoying sometimes. You need to set them up virtually every time you use it.

My electric one was like that. It was a bit of a cheapo. This one is a Schumacher which I believe is pretty good. My friend had the same kit and the only problems we had was getting the fucker to start

nice mate, hope you got a big fund for the fuel for it, mine drank for fun and liked to break occasionally... but other than that they are the most fun to be had... I would also invest in a fail save cut off so if it goes out of range it shuts off instead of giving it full throtle

I have one too, it's quality fun when it works!
I should drag it out really, I'd imagine it'll take a while to fire up.
My Dad crashed mine the day after I got it, hit a kerb, bastard. (It was his Christmas present to me)
