looking good if anyone else has a rc car please tell us. if you can tell me all the details about it.

My HPI Trophy 3.5 goes very fast (80 kmph!!!)

I put two gears in mine, and I clocked it at 64mph!!!!!

I do have another Rc car: http://www.fusionhobbies.com/Tamiya-Ris ... a58416.htm
but the Esc dosen't work.

sweet!!!!

And I was going to get a drift car, but then I found robots ;D

Cool ,but robots are better (sometimes, when your in 1st place on a race track they may not be) Thats why we are here because of Robots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know... :D

I have to say, I liked RC cars when I was younger (just your basic toys out of Argos or wherever, none of this high-end stuff) but to be honest, nowadays, they just don't cut the mustard for me. Sure they're fun to watch and if someone offered me a drive I would take it, but there's just not enough destruction in my mind, and too much similarity in looks. I like the facts that robots can look completely different from each other but still have equal chances of winning.

But I'll disappear now and leave this for those who do enjoy them :)

sofar my r/c car is the fastest
70 mph

looking good, Jamie you could buy a big Rc car and attatch a chainsaw to it that may be a little destructive.

...does a radio controlled car with a weapon attached to it not become a combat robot?

It may, it's all up to you. But the Rc car won't have very good armour if you were up against other spinners.

why do u want to know if people have a r/c car or heil

i have a fast 1 (like i told u)

I said it was random, but I just feel like it.

Is the rustler standard out of the box theo?

I think this thread is more lets find the fastest rc car that we can online and post a link. Iv had plenty of RC cars and bought ones that say 65-70mph on the box but they do nothing like that. Iv seen people with these really expensive supposed 70mph truggys and stadium trucks and you can get a semi decent road style car and it wipes the floor with them. If you want a genuinely fast out of the box RC car you have to get the Schumacher Fusion. Thats the only RC car iv found is fast out of the box

Hi
I have had my car go over 50 mph but that was with
standed gears and only 9.8v not 11.1v

so it fast and not a engine inside

It when about 30-40 with 7.4v battery and it's really fast down a narrowish road and the damge is great if it hits a wall at top speed on 70/30
(I had to buy all new surrspension (that's wrong)
blue and red metal ones this time 8)




Theo

The anodized aluminium ones bend easily or just snap, the plastic ones take more punishment and are cheaper, just dont look as pimp

NO the metal one don't bend the plastic ones broke
when it hit my bike at walking speed :(

My nitro Rc car does 70kmph

Traxxas E-Revo Brushless edition, GPS measured 104km/h on 5S Lipo.

Traxxas Slash 4x4 Short course racer, about 60km/h I guess, turning and handling is more important than top speed in short course racing.

Traxxas Stampede 1:10 monster truck, just under 70km/h when it was on the smaller wheels, not measured it yet on the Harakiri tires.

FG Baja 1:6 with 26cc 2stroke engine buggy, never measured it, specs say 70km/h stock but I have a special tuned exhaust so it will probably top that a little.

Mini Rave 1.5 truggy 1:18 scale brushless, specs say 65km/u and though I've never measured it, I believe it. Lots of power in such a small machine.

And building a Ofna/Ho-Bao Hyper ST 1:8 truggy, converting it from nitro to Brushless.

Just seen this thread, Got to many to list so here is my gallery on Tamiyaclub :)

I got my Hong-Nor SCRT10 short course truck running yesterday. I wired up the car and made its first test run over at Mario and Babeth's place in Belgium. The 4100kv motor and 120A speed controller perform very nicely, I only need to tweak the steering and diffs a little.

ive had loads of cars only got a bosscat works at the moment until the postman brings my
HPI VORZA ! sweet i cant wait its the very fast car the gadget show used to get the world record
for the longest jump, ive also got 2 x 11.1v lipos to put in it cant wait for the weekend ! :D :D :D

And I took this one to the home track as well for the first time. That new Brushless motor is sweeeet.

Is the car on the track electric or nitro?

All electro, I don't do Nitro.
