Electric Radio Controlled Vehicles
How Do They Work?
One of my favorite hobbies are Radio Controlled Cars. They come in either electric or gas powered. The ones I will be talking about are ELECTRIC 10th scale vehicles.
WHY ELECTRIC? Well electric vehicles are easier to manage than gas-powered vehicles. Most electrics only require a charged battery to get going while gas-powered vehicles need constant tuning depending on the weather.
Gas-powered vehicles take fuel called Nitro-methyl-alcohol. Not your everyday gasoline. Electrics have two types of batteries, NiCad (Nickel Cadmium) and NiMh (Nickel Metal Hydride).
Now a days, electrics can keep up with most gas powered vehicles topping out at 50mph+!
IMAGINE HOW FAST THAT IS SCALE-WISE!
