We accept as proof of experience:
✅ Own RC car - you come with your own RC car and show us your control
✅ Demonstrated experience with us - you have rented and mastered our brushed/brushless 1/16 models
✅ Verifiable declared experience - competition participation, RC club member, etc.
Why this restriction?
⚠️ 90 km/h = EXTREME speed - can be dangerous in inexperienced hands
⚠️ Brutal power - lightning acceleration, requires trained reflexes
⚠️ 1/8 scale - large, heavy RC car, major impact in collisions
⚠️ Equipment value - premium RC car, expensive parts
⚠️ Safety of others - there may also be beginners with slower models on the track
Alternative for beginners:
👉 Start with ZLL SG116 Brushed (40 km/h, controllable, safe)
👉 Upgrade to ZLL SG116 Brushless (50 km/h, brushless but smaller)
👉 Then, after you prove control →
HPI SAVAGE XL FLUX!
HPI VORZA FLUX!
