This car is never used. No scratches, dings, breaks, or even wear. I have been trying to research this car cause its my first. I have everything the kit came with including box, manual, parts, coupons, lube. Car was made in Korea. I'm looking for a value to know if its worth my time. And I'd like to know a little history and facts and probably some hop up parts too. Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks.

Ebay is a great place to look for value. We do not get involved with that here. If your looking for info, tips, upgrade idea and such you are in the right place

I´ve just bought a NIB Raider quite cheap from german ebay.
If You want to make a extra dollar, I´d say You´re better of taking a couple of extra hours at work

If Your fingers itch to build an run it, I think You should go ahead. It´s a decent runner compared to Grashopper / Hornet / Frog and so on.

OK thank you. That helps me a lot. I will prob just build it and have a good conversation piece. Its however does need a battery, controller, and a steering box. Any preferences on which to get?

I´d buy a cheap chinese 2,4 GHz radio and perhaps a cheap LiPo battery. I´m not sure if the raider will accept a LiPo, but I´ll check tomorrow.

I had to Dremel my battery tray to fit my hard case Lipo in my Turbo Raider but it didn't need much shaving.

Sorry everyone, being that I'm new to the rc world I decided not to build it. I traded the raider to my local hobby shop and bought a 1/10 traxxas slash. I am finding the hobby loads of fun and I've started racing! So I'd say I did it right Lol. Thank you everyone for your help full posts!

The S.... is a good way to get started - it´s cheap and durable - lots of fun.
Please - Don´t ever mention the S.... in the Kyosho forum again

My apologies. I am new to forums. Thank you

Just kidding
