RC Bikes - Raidentech -1:5 Scale Electric Motorcycle RTR

The thing about RC Bikes is that they are, today, the hottest radio controlled toys and models on the market. There was a time when nothing could rival the popularity of RC cars, planes and trucks. RC Bikes, at that time, were extremely basic models that had little going for them, in terms of technology, and were usually made of basic plastic also look at, RC Tank with Camera with cheap stickers. They ran on puny electric look at, RC Nitro and Gas Boats motors, with nothing exciting lying in wait for customers and hobbyists who went through the process of researching and buying these RC Bikes.

However, times began to change also see, BNF Planes and there was a marked difference in the way manufacturers try, RC Military Jeep began approaching RC Bikes. The thing is, motorcycles have always been popular and even when it comes to die-cast models, the shine of the chrome and glorious colours consider, BNF Planes of the machine ensure that you could spend hours looking at these wonderful little pieces of design-brilliance.

Thus begins the Era of RC Bikes

The first thing that changed was the entire perspective o what an RC bike actually was. Originally nothing more than a cheap plastic try, BNF Planes toy, the RC Bike became something of a revelation as more and more manufacturers try, Gopro RC Quadcopter moved towards better chassis, improved designs , RC Boat Plans and a whole lot of practical functionality. The first thing to hit the trash bins were the old chassis and body-structures.

They were replaced by new designs, look at, RC Flying Robot materials and structures that were modern, realistic and extremely functional when it came to riding, turning and more. Today, RC Bikes still come in plastic , RC Nitro Powered Cars bodies but there are those that have aluminium or carbon , RC Boat Jet fibre bodies too. It has become a question of how much money you have to spend and how much realism do you want from your motorbike.

The strength of the chassis, due to the use of such materials, has also meant that it can take a lot more punishment and carry a lot more weight. This meant that the motors mounted on them could become more powerful and that meant, performance went through the roof. look at, RC 2-3 Channel Radio Another important aspect of RC Bikes that underwent massive change , RC Nitro and Gas Boats were the shockers - they became better and stronger, allowing RC Bikes to run on all kinds of surfaces, taking more punishment at higher speeds and even improving cornering capabilities.

Realism has also gone a long way as it isn't about just making RC Bikes, it is about making RC Bikes that look like the real deal! You get replicas of bikes used in movies, popular versions of street-bikes and so much more - something that has played a huge role in increasing the demand for these RC Bikes.

Competitive Racing with RC Bikes

The one thing everyone loves about motorcycles is speed and the thrill of racing, or watching them race. That, however, isn't for everyone and only the most capable riders are allowed to race their motorbikes. However, with RC Bikes, anyone can race as long as they have the right machines and the right setup to put those machines to good use. RC Clubs, especially those that cater to RC Bike hobbyists, are known for putting together race-tracks that allow hobbyists and professionals to run their RC Bikes like never before.

These race-tracks have everything - from chicanes and turns to run-off areas and tyre-walls. They are how you would image professional motorbike racing would be, but at an RC-scale. That, however, does not mean that competition is any easier because these competitions are extremely serious - enough to warrant a world RC Bikes' championship event that is held every year, in the same way that the superbike or MotoGP series is held around the world. There are also competitions that allow hobbyists to upgrade their machines and this is the new trend in RC Bikes.

Hobbyists buy these standard also look at, RC Nitro Speedboats RC Bikes available in stores and spend time buying or making spare parts that can replace stock-parts. This side of the hobby has really kicked off as RC shows and competitions are highlighting these aspects of RC Bikes, and other models as well, as a way to show off what heights the industry can reach if they try. The concept of racing these RC Bikes or simply putting them out for display at competitions is really becoming the core-feature of such RC events and with them, the popularity of RC Bike has gone through the roof. also look at, RC Glow Cars
