subject: Non-monster Rc Trucks [print this page] When one mentions about rc trucks, typically its the monster truck that comes to the mind of many hobbyists in this field of remote controlled vehicles. What needs to ne noted is that there are other types of radio control truck. Rc trucks, just like any other remote vehicle can be categorized as non-scale or scale. By saying scale it means the toy vehicle has been modeled from a real-life truck. These kinds of remote controlled vehicles can also be categorized as electric, nitro and a 2 stroke gasoline powered. The stadium trucks are the most popular kind of remote controlled trucks and are made to be driven of rougher surfaces partly because of their robust nature compared to a normal on-road car.
Stadium trucks are adaptive to dirty tracks and are fun to drive in such terrain. These cars are able to reach fast speeds not forgetting their good handling nature as well. The Traxxas Nitro Sport RTR Stadium Truck is one such example and is two wheels driven. The nitro sport has become popular both as club level racing and as a first time model. The brand Traxxas is long known as a favorite manufacturer of rc trucks for many hobbyists of which the Nitro Sport is one of their popular model products. Electric stadium trucks are available as well and are easier to run and cheap to buy but with a nitro truck, one experiences more exhilaration and fun at the track.
Micro and mini rc trucks
Technology is advancing and as a result everything in the radio controlled world of rc trucks is getting smaller and smaller. The brand Team Losiseems to be the leader with their 1:36 and 1:18 scale vehicles which are good little trucks made to be very suitable for racing on back yards, club tracks as well as around the house. The Micro-T is the smallest ready-to-run (RTR) that Team Losi offers and measures just under 5 inches long. The Micro-Desert truck is made to drive on rough terrain and can fit the pal of your hands. The Micro Highrollar is made to break limits by driving almost anywhere that no Micro has gone before. These are just some among many of the Team Losi truck models available in the market.
It is typical of scale rc trucks to be powered by electric motors but this is not always the case. The most popular kind of remote controlled trucks for scale lovers are the semi-trailers and Big Rig trucks with some very impressive models around. Although scale trucks were not made for racing, but one can always try and set up a street racing with friends. The scale rc trucks can be bought in true kit or RTR form depending on a persons preference. Examples of scale electric powered rc models available as kits include the Ford F-150 Lightening, which is a nice utility truck kit. The King Hauler Truck from brand Tamiya is a very good example of a scale tractor truck. To drive rc trucks is a lot of fun whether at home or at a race in a club.
