Radio controlled cars are self-powered model cars or trucks that can be controlled from a distance using a specialized transmitter and receiver. These vehicles are powered by various sources. Electric cars are powered by small yet powerful electric motors and rechargeable batteries. You also have fuel powered models, such as gas RC trucks that use glow plug engines. These are small internal combustion engines fueled by a special mixture of nitromethane, methanol, and oil.
Gasoline powered vehicles, which are also known as “fuelies” or “gassers”, run on a mix of gasoline and oil. These vehicles are generally much bigger and require more space to run. They have lots of power and does not require a lot of fuel to run. Gas powered motors rarely, if ever, require tuning and have a relatively longer lifespan. These larger scale models are very popular in Europe and have recently become popular in the United States thanks in part to companies that produce affordable models locally.

We recently went to a new park near San Francisco downtown. It was excellent as there were some activities there that we have not seen in other parks. There were some young people playing with RC crawlers, there were also mime acts and some excellent street performers. It was pretty good and I was impressed because these were free activities for families to watch.
Parks are good venues to bring your family, in my opinion. In today’s economy one should be resourceful in finding ways for your family to bond without spending money. Movies cost $15 a person so imagine bringing a family of 5…whew! It’s just too much, right? That’s why we should all consider park activities.
