Default RC cars

As soon as some people here are interested in RC cars, I tought it sould be interesting to post two great videos:

first: a 100 mph 1/8th nitro car on an airfield, highly modified and very fast, poor quality video tough

http://users.pandora.be/c12s/100high.avi

second: this is an electric car, it's also build for one purpose: SPEED. just look the video, it's scary!! must be really hard to hold that one under control...

thanks to zippo for the hosting!!

bit different, but have you seen that video floating about, with the 200mph nitro cars....

Its a bit pointless as they just race round in a circle, but i guess you can say you have a car that go's 200mph...!!

Its floating round kazaa, search for "200mph nitro cars" and you should find it if you havent already...

Yes I've got it, but that's really not my type of cars... don't have any control, so the fun is quite limited...

Default RC Jets

Anyone seen any RC Jet videos? Or any of the aerial dog-fight videos? They are pretty neat. They fly with ribbons attached to their tails, and the aim is to cut the ribbon with your prop...

that didn't even need to be radio controlled. let it run on the wire and let it run out of fuel

it's an on board camera video! impressive start and some cruising, the images are beautifull, it feels really great. Nothing really impressive in the flying tough.
