This is my oldest daughters first hobby grade rc I built for her out of my Tamiya TL01. I don't know who made the body but the wheels and tires are from a Slash. She has a blast with it. I got the body with a T3 I bought and used it since she loves VW beetles. I am also getting a rustler xl1 for my youngest today for her bday tomorrow. What rc's have you guys given to your little ones for their first?

That looks great! You have a very lucky daughter.

My daughter rebuilt my original Grasshopper just before she turned 7. That's it on the right:


From parts I built my son's Monster McQueen that same winter for his 5th birthday:


The next Christmas they got a Frog to build:


A Lunchbox kit was built the next winter, followed by 2wd Slashes and now airplanes and helis... RC is a great way to teach construction techniques, patience and discipline (especially when flying nitro plane much bigger than you ) and a fantastic way to spend time with your kids.

Congrats and enjoy!

Awww, very cool

I resto/modded a b3 for my son x-mas present, I think it came out great We go out bashing every week, he loves it and getting pretty good at driving too
