If your gonna start from scratch please get 40mhz, 27mhz quite frankly is rubbish, to be honest you should be getting 2.4ghz but it might be out of your price range.
RC nitro car help. Looses signal WAY to early.

Is it not as rubbish as I think it would be, ie: someone answers a chordless phone and you get shot down.
I was always chastised for thinking of going 40Mhz for RC Cars from many people, that was 'reserved' (unnofficialy I assume?) for Planes/Heli's etc..
it is better stuff of course, and I had acccess to lots of old kit of friends/family that have Heli's, but stuck with 27MHz, and to be honest never had an issue..
My only mishap was the battery pack being smashed off the buggy, obviously the servo's just stayed where they where, full throttle, but luckily a load of gorse bushes took the brunt, and no real damage!

Cars and boats use 40mhz, planes/helis use 35 mhz (or 36/ 72 depending on country)
TOYS use 27 mhz.
2.4ghz is digitally paired to the receiver and changes 100(?) times a second so no problem with interference.
