For those who have already bought rc cars, hopeyour are having lots of fun. If you need more speed, here areseven ways to make your car go faster.
1. Ball bearings - these will reduce a lot of friction in the axlesand transmission. Expect 10 - 20% increase in speed.
2. Using lightweight parts - graphite chassis, aluminum screws,titanium drive shafts will make a car lighter. This results in fasteracceleration, top speed, reduced motor wear, and longer batterylife. Expect a 5 - 10% increase in speed.
3. Improve suspension and car handling - oil filled shockabsorbers, tuned springs, and sway bars will help your car gofaster around corners, and handle a lot better, especially onrough tracks.
4. Faster steering - a high-speed steering servo will help yourcar react faster to steering inputs.
5. Faster electric motors - modified motor provide a greatspeed and power boost over the stock Mabuchi 540 motor. Amild 24 degree motor may push your touring car to 30 mph,while the highly modified 10 turn motors push electric touringcars near 40 mph.
6. High capacity batteries - racing quality NiMH battery packsare made of individual cells that have been matched, so thateach cell provides the same power and discharge curve as allthe other cells in the battery pack. This ensures maximum power.
7. Electronic speed control - replacing the stock mechanicalspeed controller with a budget electronic speed control (esc) isalready a big plus. ESC provides smooth throttle control andprecise braking capability. Budget ESC can handle 19 turnmotors, while high capacity ESC can handle the hotter 10 turnmodified motors.
