 do let mine but I make sure there are no people around and let them know they can't let it open up. I have 2 off brand Nitro's right now. A RedCat SV and an Acme Condor. Aside from the RedCat, I know some of you are shaking your head when you hear a name brand RC called Acme lol.  Grin They are cheap and not too expensive to repair if you have the patience to wait for the ordered parts.  Wink

Reason for asking is, I may come out to some gathering bashing if'n ya'll get any where close to me and bring my two sons with me. Unless I got the gas to get to that park I saw on the video's, it's most likely I won't be able to come around.
Any who, just wondering if you all let the lil ones get a shot at running a bit? I know that it's not a good idea to let someone under 14 to mess with a Toy that is actually dangerous but strict supervision I think makes it a bit okay. What do you all think?

My son will be 5 years old on Sept. 8th. I've been letting him run them so he can get used to it. His hands are still kinda small for the tx. I'm right next to him though and "most" of the neighbor's are safe.

He makes it to most of the bashes. This pic was back in February:

*sighs with relief* this is good to hear.  Tongue I do let both run them and both of the RC's are nitro's. I have yet to get the saver thingys for mine so they wont loose control. My RedCats on off switch had some bad solder points on it and they broke apart one time at my parents house. It happened right when "I " open the throttle wide!  Shocked LMAO it went slam into a metal pipe and rolled over. I have soldered them back together but I may need to get a new switch some time.
