RC remote control cars offer an exciting hobby and pastime, combining technology with the thrill of speed. From rugged off-road racers to smooth surface racers, there's a model to suit every interest. This guide will help you understand the differences between RC remote control cars and make an informed choice.
RC remote control cars are mainly divided into two broad types: off-road vehicles and road vehicles. Off-road RC remote control cars (such as bags, monster trucks, crawlers) are built tough, with high clearance and chunky tyres to conquer grass, gravel, sand and dirt. Road RC remote control cars (such as circuit and drift cars) have a low profile, smoother tyres and precise handling, designed for speed and precision on tarmac or smooth tracks. The choice depends on the vehicle environment.
Performance of RC remote control cars depends largely on their engine type and battery. Common engines are brushed and brushless. Brushed motors are cheaper and simpler, good for beginners. Brushless motors offer significantly more power, speed and efficiency, suitable for advanced users. From are popular NiMH (easier to handle) and LiPo (lighter, more powerful, need more careful charging). Battery capacity has an impact on driving time.
Choosing an RC remote control car should be based on your skill level and the durability of the model. For beginners “Ready-To-Run” (RTR) models, which are ready to go out of the box and usually more resistant to shocks. Look for strong plastic parts and easily replaceable components. Advanced may prefer kits, which can be assembled and customised. Consider how much time you are prepared to invest in maintenance.
