Hi all,
My sons birthday is coming up, and was wondering where to buy a good RC toy for him.
Dont need any thing very fancy, probably something under $100.
I have seen some options on Warehouse/Kmart, but dont know what to look out for..
With black friday coming up, though I would ask now so I can track prices.
Thanks
Go with one of these for sure!
@kiwijunglist Any 2023 recommendations?
Aliexpress/Banggood. Temu maybe.
My boy was given a RC stunt car that is lots of fun. Can drive on both sides and left and right wheels are linked and can flip separate from the body.
I'm surprised it's only $20 at Kmart. Being rechargeable via USB is great. It's way faster and better than the Monster Jam ones that are $40 at the Warehouse.

You're missing age of kid.
Additionally is it for playing inside or on driveway/pavement or on short cut grass.
The AliExpress ones are better and faster, but faster is actually harder to drive for a kid.
The spreadsheet linked above is good for older children if you want something budget but higher end, although a lot of the cars will be around $150-200 and you need to consider battery charger and battery safety (they catch fire if improperly used).
Actually good point,
I dont see my son being able to play with my Flyhal for a few years yet. And I cant really play with it at my own house. Need to take it to a park or similar
