Looking for an R/C that wont break

I have to vote for the Schumacher Havoc. Yes, it's nitro, but if you're motivated enough to do a conversion on it...it's honestly THE toughest-built RC out there IMO. Construction isn't too different to a Panzer tank lol. Bulletproof drivetrain, indestructible suspension...the thing's just nuts. Heck, Schumacher actually market the thing as a "Stunt Truck"...and they built it accordingly.

Of course, it depends on what you want from the RC. If you're not planning on hurling it through the air, then maybe a Slash or Rustler would be more suitable.

Like BrianG said put lower voltage battery packs in so it keeps her speed in a more reasonable range, hence she will not be able to kill the vehicle so easily. Let her get the hang of driving at slower speeds and once she gets the hang of it, and you feel comfortable bump the voltage up with larger packs. No matter what vehicle you set her up with, if she does not get her lead finger under control she will kill it.
