AndyPandy Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Do any of you own any R/C cars/boats/planes etc? Well, here is the place to talk about them. Personally, I have a thunder tiger TS-2N car. Quite old, but goes very fast. Haven't measured (don't know how) but by sight, I would say that it goes around 35 MPH. I have a video of it running on my phone, but I can't find my transfer cable. I run it on 16% nitro, if you wanna know. EDIT: Here it is! http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=292mr1h&s=4 The guy talking is my dad, he doesn't want me to break it lol. It was going at around 1/2 speed, we've tuned the engine since then, I'll try and get you a full speed video when I next run it. So don't let anyone tell you you're not worth the earth, These streets are your streets, this turf is your turf, Don't let anyone tell you that you've got to give in, Cos you can make a difference, you can change everything, Just let your dreams be your pilot, your imagination your fuel, Tear up the book and write your own damn rules, Use all that heart, hope and soul that you've got, And the love and the rage that you feel in your gut, And realise that the other world that you're always looking for, Lies right here in front of us, just outside this door, And it's up to you to go out there and paint the canvas, After all, you were put on the earth to do this, So shine your light so bright that all can see, Take pride in being whoever the [bleep] you want to be.

deloriagod Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 I used to love r/c cars. Then I got a real car and r/c doesn't even compare. Internet Marketing For Newbies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastortoise Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 I made an RC hovercraft in engineering class this semester, will be racing it/taking pics in early December. Also, I ordered a brushless motor to strap onto the back, incredible thrust power :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyPandy Posted October 31, 2008 Author Share Posted October 31, 2008 Yeah, I've seen some traxxas brushless monster trucks doing 60mph+.

nickeley102 Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 my dad got me a r/c helicopter when he was in hong kong, i can take off, land and keep it pointing in the same direction and it will creep that direction, i have little control over how it travels horizontally though. I made an RC hovercraft in engineering class this semester, will be racing it/taking pics in early December me and my brothers made a r/c hovercraft once too, this was when we were really young, it was just a balsa wood box with a little tamiya car motor with a fan fixed inside. worked well enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ouchy Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 I always wanted an RC Plane or Car, as they look like fun, but I don't have the budget and time to use one. -.- When I was a kid I used to have one, but that was a little budget one that could not go far, went about 10km an hour, and lasted for 10 Minutes, tops. My relaxation method involves a bottle of lotion, beautiful women, and partial nudity. Yes I get massages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
