Exclusive summary about Nitro RC Cars by Rob D Stone

The nitro cars are not the ordinary old fashioned style remote control cars. These cars run off of nitro fuel. The nitro allows the cars to go at a fast speed. Once you have added the nitro to your nitro RC you will need to prime the engine with the fuel.

The nitro remote control cars are more than just your average remote control cars because of the comparison in a real motor and the real motor functions. If you have never seen one you may want to check out some video online that shows the nitro cars in action.

You can purchase different bodies for your nitro cars. Your nitro can look like a race car or a monster truck. If you have a crash you can find replacement parts online where you purchase your remote control cars.

Gas Powered Remote Control Cars

Exclusive summary about Gas Powered Remote Control Cars by Clarence Phoon

There are many types of remote control cars. Generally, gas powered remote control cars use a mix of oil and gasoline. The cost prices for ready to run cars are about $1000 to $3000 more expensive than nitrogen and electric based cars. Contrastingly, fuel (nitro) powered cars have a medium to high velocity even when they are unmodified.

Nitro (and fuel) powered cars can be refueled in a jiffy, while electric cars need removal of the body shell and battery fasteners when replacing a dead battery. Electrically powered models are much lighter than their nitro equivalent counterparts. Nitro and gas powered cars have their own strengths and weaknesses.

how to film a rc car race

Exclusive summary about Video RC Car Races by Simon Crabb


It can’t be great fun to video rc car races, it can show you how everybody is doing, and also show you where you may have room for improvement in your own driving. Once you’ve decided where to film from, you could start the filming on the grid, so you can get a close-up of the cars, and then move into you main filming position ready for start of the race.

Filming the grid can be very beneficial, get the camera down low down low and close to the cars, filling the frame with each car in turn as you walk backwards along the grid.

From there filming the race is usually a case of following the leading car around a track. If there is group of cars circulating around the track together, then film the whole group so you can capture any overtaking maneuvers.

If your camera has a screen it is a good idea to use that for filming rather than a viewfinder. The final tip is to watch other professional filmmakers’ videos. In no time you will be filming great races to view back later.

Radio Controlled Cars Are Fun for All

Exclusive summary about Radio Controlled Cars Are Fun by Douglas Weedon

Radio controlled cars, remote control cars or simply RC cars as they are variously called are a hobby that can start small and grow with you.

There are several forms of RC cars such as electric RC cars, nitro and petrol. The simplest and most popular are ready built electric RC cars. Remember the higher the number the smaller the car. One of the most popular is the 1:24 scale Mini, everyone loves the mini, and this is an ideal starter car. This will give you a chance to develop your remote control car driving skills. Kitchen rolls, toilet rolls and pots make great markers. So if you want to have some great fun and exciting hobby then radio controlled cars could be just what you need. ‘Lewis Hamilton’s’ first appearance on television was on ‘Blue Peter’ driving an RC car in a race, of course he won!
