RC Car Guide

My sons uncle introduced me to racing RC cars. I watched him build a RC truck and I was amazed, I have been a RC junkie every since. When I purchased my son his first remote controlled vehicle I didn’t know you could build your own as well as enter races.  I discovered RC tracks for RC cars, and I also found out about jumps and other different types of competition for these cars. There is a rc car guide  I would frequently visit. It helped me out in the past.  Anyway keep those rc cars and engines running.

Little Tikes RC Bumper Cars

https://www.littletikes.com/rc-bumper-cars#

RC cars are fun but to be able to crash them into each other is a kid’s dream. Little tikes RC Cars bumper cars when they hit each other the look of delight on a kids face is priceless. I wonder why kids are so happy being destructive. The excitement and joy they feel when they see the driver being ejected from the car is really funny.  The little tikes cars were made for this, a kid’s delight.
RC Cars bumper carsWhat kid doesn’t love remote control cars? It’s cool that they took something that kids might fight about(being crashed into by each others cars) and turned it into the main point, with the funny extra of the little drivers popping out. This is a great thing for the whole family!! My husband is going to be 60 and he wants me to.purchase a set for him and I.
Little Tikes Bumper Cars are the only remote control cars that allow kids to “bump” their opponent and launch the driver right out of the car! When a car “bumps” into one of the other car’s wheels, the toy figure will eject from the driver’s seat!
If your kids like remote vehicles, they might like these too! The cars do have to be synced one at a time. Both controls need batteries as well as the the two cars. There is so much to do with them- race, create obstacle courses, chase them (as my 1.5 year old did! ha!). They are very well made. One of the main pros is that they work simultaneously yet also independently of each other. Battery life drains quickly so be sure to turn off both the car and controller when not in use, total batteries were 10 AAA batteries. Use on hard smooth floor. Works better than on the carpet.

(Little Tikes bumper cars) are better suited to preschool kids and toddlers. The drivers fly out of their seats when they bump and what makes it fun for the kids is that it doesn’t have to bump that hard (but not so sensitive that they are constantly out). It is always fun to have a new toy that everyone enjoys. Original post….
Little tike bumper cars will add enjoyment to your little ones play. The hours of playing with the car and crashing into each other will be sheer delight for your little one. And don’t be too surprised if you find yourself and older kids playing with them too!

Reedy S-Plus Competition Spec Class motors

The right motor in your RC car can make you or break you depending on what you are doing with your car. You may be a racer or you may be a weekend driver. You may have a RC car just for the fun of it. Whatever your reason you do want a top notch motor that is durable and will last for some time.  A real expert at RC racing will also love the motor that can be modified easily (haven’t found that one yet) Anyway, motors are out here and finding the right one can actually be fun (if looking for a motor excites you).  We found one  that looks good.
http://www.neobuggy.net/2017/12/13/reedy-s-plus-competition-spec-class-motors/After several months of behind-the-scenes development and track testing, Team Associated have announced the release of the all-new Reedy S-Plus Competition Spec Class motor. The heart of the S-Plus is a thin leg stator that allows shorter wire lengths, resulting in a massive reduction in resistance, a reduction in resistance just above the minimum allowed by R.O.A.R. … See full article… neobuggy.net
Team Associated does have quality accessories for RC cars, trucks and buggys and for me I can never have enough spare parts. I am constaly trying to hybrid stuff. Sometimes I’m successful and other times I’m frustrated, you know what I mean. But because I am so in love with RC cars I have my beer and I go to my garage and I have at it.
http://www.neobuggy.net/2017/12/08/reedy-sonic-866-877-brushless-motors/The Sonic 866, available in 1900kV and 2100kV versions, is designed for 1/8 E-Buggy while its slightly longer brother, the Sonic 877, available in 2000kV only, is intended for 1/8 E-Truggy duty. However, motors are interchangeable between chassis types to create a wide range of performance options suitable for a wide variety of track conditions. … See more…
I’m always looking for a way to go faster and keep control of my car. Sometimes it’s easier said than done. I think I’m good (my kids say i’m not) but sometimes I can get out of control but who dosen’t. Anyway I like tinkering and I like going fast.

Remote control cars are fun and exciting for people of all ages. There are many different types of cars, such as monster trucks, drift cars and short course trucks, just to name a few.

How to Find the Best RC Auto Toy for Your Child

Kids love remote controlled cars because they offer adventure and lots of action. Even better, the kid with the coolest RC car in the gang will instantly become popular!

But RC toys are more than just a way to help our children make new friends; these toys will get them outside, walking and running, playing in the sun, and getting dirty. According to recent studies, our children spend most of their time indoors, losing that precious connection with nature their parents developed as children.

So, if you want to see your kids outside more, find the best RC car for them. But beware: the very cheap models will break very fast spoiling the experience and bringing more frustration than fun. Even more, some of the designs on the market come with advanced technologies that raise the tag price and the maintenance costs.

Conclusion:

There are quite a few rc cars on the market that are good for beginning drivers. The same cars can also be fun for the more experienced drivers as well.
