You'll need AA batteries for the transmitter and either a NiMH or LiPo battery pack for the car itself—neither is included in the box. Check the manual for the exact battery specifications and recommended charge times for your chosen pack.
The RTR package includes the fully assembled Hoonicorn with Apex2 chassis, 2.4GHz radio system, water-resistant receiver box, and Reedy brushed motor with speed control. You will need to supply your own AA batteries for the transmitter and a NiMH or LiPo battery pack for the vehicle.
