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!
