AVC Technology from Spectrum RC

AVC - ACTIVE VEHICLE CONTROL






AVC – Active Vehicle Control technology uses a combination of sensors and software algorithms to adjust steering and throttle output at a rate faster than humanly possible, facilitating a more manageable driving experience. The level of stability provided by AVC technology can be adjusted to suit your preference and feels completely natural. With AVC you'll feel like you're driving a finely tuned vehicle that handles with precision at any speed and through every turn.

Follow this link to learn more about AVC  from Spectrum's own website. We have a taster below of just a few RC models now available with AVC pre-installed.
