Carrera RC – Because your never to young for Remote Control Cars !!!

Increasing our product range to suit customers requirements is our goal – Carrera RC meets the demand for Radio controlled cars for the younger RC enthusiast.

Carrera RC has worked tirelessly to improve childrens Radio controlled cars, taking key areas such as charge & running times, strength, quality and reliability and have successfully improved the features that in the past have let toy rc cars down.

Batteries are now fast charged in just over an hour, using Li-on power batteries you get up to an hour of run time, depending on vehicle size. Their range of RC cars include 27mhz and 2.4gHz technology. Check out Carrera RC to see full features of all their RC models.

What better way to test a product than give it to your own grandchild (aged 6) and let him put it through the bashing only children can. I think we can safely say we have an RC enthusiast for the next generation in the making. Needless to say we were impressed with the quality of the car and can thoroughly recommend them.

HPI RACING SAVAGE XL OCTANE

Coming soon from HPI Racing, the eagerly awaited Savage Octane XL

Continuing the success of the HPI Savage truck, the next natural step for HPI Racing was to take its flagship model and turn it into a petrol truck, and so the Savage Octane XL was born.

After visiting HPI Racing Europe and viewing the prototype Savage Octane XL, you can begin to respect the design and technology that has been used in creating the next phase of RC car development.

The Prototype has cutting edge 3D Laser printed exhaust, manifold & gearbox, which in itself is pretty impressive. With a Mighty 15cc Petrol engine housed within the truck, any overheating issues were erased by installing a 4 inch ducted cooling fan. Features the standard Savage XL specs plus all new XL fuel tank for even longer drive times, tuned pipe that matches the Octane engine for increased torque and power, all new composite triple break system, all new designed alloy TVP (Twin Vertical Plate) chassis and with an even tougher roll cage and new XL bodyshell, they certainly have been busy at HPI Racing.

 HPI fans have been eagerly awaiting the release of the Savage Octane, but some are still concerned there has been no indication of the final price tag, we've been given a hint that the RRP is likely to settle around the £800 marker and for those of you who gasp at the price, we can certainly say that we are sure the Savage Octane will soon grow to have a huge fan base.

We'll keep you posted on any news and development concerning the Octane, release date has yet to be confirmed, but we have been led to believe that June/July will be the earliest it may come to RC shops. Pre Order your HPI Savage Octane XL as we are guessing these will sell out as soon as the first shipment hits the stores.
