RC is the abbreviation of Radio Control. You control the car with a remote and race with it. It is a genuine hobby and getting popular in Turkey day by day.

There are two types of RC cars.

Electricity and gas.

And of course you'll need batteries for the control panel.

Off-road cars can go in the sand and dirt. But high-speed cars usually need a circuit to race on. After fueling it all you need to do is to use the remote and be careful!

They are fast!

There are many competitions around the world. In Turkey, Istanbul there is a circuit for RC cars. But the hobby is not common among people. I enjoy my time there with my RC car. Mine is off-road.

People organize races in Maltepe. Maintanenc e and repair of the RC cars teaches me lots of things. Even though I can't do it alone I'm improving myself by getting help from my father. I hope it will get more popular in the future.
