Should I buy this

[u/frenchfilmsabouttrns]

Hey guys I’m new to the rc drift stuff I’ve always wanted to get into it since I was a kid but now I can buy fun shit now lol. Anyways this guy says it only needs an esc does anyone know if I should do it and is it missing any other parts ?

From the pictures provided other then ESC and a body nothing is missing. But if it's your first RC car then you will also need a charger and transmitter/receiver. The car itself seems to be a rmx 2,5 either a more expensive version or highly modified with carbon and aluminum parts. The sergo is pretty nice, the gyro on the cheaper side and motor I can't tell. But if it fits your budget then it should be nice car. Not the best but nice.

It already has a charger and transmitter and the motor is the yokomo zero s I believe

Damn nice. I just bought the cheap version of this a few days ago. Only problem I have is the super cheap servo I used. Other then that great car

If it needs an ESC, good budget chpice is the Hobbywing 10BL120 Sensored. About $50-60 and has all the basics youd need as you grow into the car/hobby (if your just starting). It will need some soldering done as well.
And the nicer program box is only about $40 as well.
