I think it was 165mph.
People work hard to get their cars to 100mph. It'd be great to have an in-depth look at the power system he's got on there and the air flow management. Title: Re: Fastest RC car Post by: RumblePirate on April 02, 2014, 09:32:28 AM Traxxas XO-1 is a ready to run 100mph+ rc car. Many guys have been able to reach 130-140mph+ speeds. But this guys is the father if RC speed records- Nic Case. His record stands at 171mph+ n I think it's now 186mph(300kmph).... He's collaborated with meany others teams to build this ultimate machine - Schumacher

Check this link, it's Nic Case's model http://fastestrc.blogspot.in/2008/10/new-rc-speed-record-16176-mph-by-nic.html?m=1 (http://fastestrc.blogspot.in/2008/10/new-rc-speed-record-16176-mph-by-nic.html?m=1) Title: Re: Fastest RC car Post by: iamahuman on April 02, 2014, 04:41:36 PM I guess he doesn't reveal everything as it's a 'trade secret' of sorts. It'd be great to have him show the car off on video.
Title: Re: Fastest RC car Post by: RumblePirate on April 02, 2014, 07:15:34 PM II think you can find most of the specs of this monster car in the link I've provided above. It's a different thing that most of his parts are custom made in collaboration with various teams n companies. Even the mighty pot is custom made from Neu Motors. Think only his radio,servo, ESC and battery are regular one
Title: Re: Fastest RC car Post by: iamahuman on April 02, 2014, 08:03:45 PM I meant to ask about the small tricks that go into making this happen. I'm surprised his tires don't balloon like crazy. Most of the speed run guys use foams. I wonder how the tires sustain the revs. I get that they're custom made but they have to be really good not to balloon.
Title: Re: Fastest RC car Post by: RumblePirate on April 02, 2014, 08:32:43 PM The tyres are solid here, no foam or air based... They'll rip off otherwise, this guy has forged the wheels n other metal parts. He's crazy and we can assume how much effort n Benjamin's this guy must hv put in. Really appreciable
Title: Re: Fastest RC car Post by: iamahuman on April 02, 2014, 09:13:51 PM Really appreciable Certainly. I hope he breaks the 200mph barrier soon. Title: Re: Fastest RC car Post by: RumblePirate on April 03, 2014, 02:04:33 AM I too hope so, as it is he's won most of the speed record prizes but he wants the big one for 200mph+ for any RC electric.
cheers to that |
