New to Hobby - Looking for advice on buying

Hi all. Randomly saw some videos on YouTube by Do U RC and was instantly obsessed with the idea of this hobby.

Due to his recommendations for a budget crawler, I was thinking of either:

WPL C94 UAZ-469

or

JXC LR1801 RTR 1/18

I know very little about the hobby aside from what I heard and saw in the video.

I like the price points of both and am willing to upgrade parts as needed.

I'm not looking to do anything wild with them. I live by a creek with tons of rocks, mud, etc to play in.

Curious if anyone has experience with either or can recommend a different RC crawler with a similar price point.

Thank you!
