redkow97 Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 if you up the voltage, it will do a lot more than 5mph.My brothers and I figured this out with cheap RC cars as kids. My uncle bought them for us for Christmas, and I turned a 3 volt, AA powered slow present into a 9 volt fire-breather I had made an electromagnet for some kind of school project as a kid, so I had a bunch of wire, and enough knowledge to realize that the 3 volt AA batteries were wired in parallel. Simple logic dictated that a 9V taped to the top of the car, with wires extended to the appropriate terminals would yield 3 times the speed.amazingly, it actually worked. The motors burned out damn quick, but they were way more fun than anticipated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casper Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 No kidding!? Supply more voltage to an electric motor and it spins faster?? Holy crap!! On a serious note, try model rocket engines on the RC car next time. Now there's some fun. Just a fair warning though; you won't be able to steer. Make sure you have at least a 1/2 mile straightaway.

Tigerpaw Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 Also available at Target, and cheaper on Amazon. Both with reviews. I saw some lame low quality videos on YouTube. Looks like it would be a great entry level toy, before spending money on a real bike.Is it wrong that I'm interested in this before my child is even born?

You can see the top of the training wheel mount, but he wheel is gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
