What Is The Fastest RC Car In The World?

 

What is an RC car?

An RC Car or Radio-Controlled car, is a toy grade miniature model car or truck that are controlled from a distance using a specialized transmitter or remote.

Many people may have played four-wheel drive racing car when they were young, using a remote control and they would "travel over mountains" at home. However, it is a toy after all, and the speed is very slow. Then have you ever imagined transforming your car, increasing the speed?

What is the fastest RC car in the world?

But James Beswick, a British RC car enthusiast, had a whim. In order to design his own remote control car, he not only bought 3D printing equipment, but also taught himself the design software, and finally successfully designed this car with a total length of 1.2 Meters of high-speed remote control car.

Car body design of low air drag

In order to reduce air resistance and increase the RC car speed, James made the body of the RC car very narrow and long, similar to bullet train. The printing material selected PLA/PHA wire with good elasticity and strong vibration damping ability, because this material has high strength and is not easy to deform.

Make it to he worlds's fastest RC car list

James also chose the same material when printing the car shell and brackets. In the speed experiment, this 3D-printed remote control car was on the world remote control car speed list, reaching a speed of 200 kilometers per hour, and was in the list. Ranked 11th, James said that he is very keen to win. He will not stop the pace of continuous improvement, he hopes to reach the top of the list, breaking the record of 324 kilometers per hour  taken by the Bullet RC car.
