I would love to see inside it too!

I agree Jimmy, 32 pictures of the same angle... all with the body on!

if it gets 'proper' RC cars into the hands of people that would not normally use them then thats a good thing!

WOW !

and it's only $80 - thats means it will only be about £150 when it gets here

Also - alkaline charger ?

so you put duracells in a charger to charge the nimh in the truck ?

You probably can't remove the body as the circuitry inside is so delicate and small it's not really designed to be tampered with....

I sold a lot of these Micro R/C cars a couple of years back, mainly the Tomy Bit-charG sort of cars, although you could put different motors and batteries in i wouldn't say they were designed for everyone to tinker about with.

Look quite cool though, but soooooo small they're really not much good for anything other then playing on a desk/table etc.

its more of a steerable scalextric car, it prolly uses supercharged scalextric motors, I think they are mubachhi type or summat? I would love to see someone fit a mamaba 18th brushless in this though

hehe that is tiny!!
you wouldnt lose it by it going out of range you would lose it by not been able to see it lol. i think i would prefer a 1/18th so it would be sort of usable outside not just on your kitchen lino.
