Found a new mini rc(KEY RC). IR control, engine sounds, alarm system, LED. PICTURES>
it's IR controlled!!! it's about the size of the MGA cars. might be same company..same style white motor with leads and white gears. magnet and coil steering, car has a speaker, alarm system LED, on off switch, wide rear rubber tires(that fit on zz/bits), uses a N cell alky(comes with 2). has three charging strips on the back that the controller connects to, but not sure what the function is for, since no instructions and havent opened the controller yet.
if you arm the alarm and hit it with another bit..the alarm system goes off..u gotta shut it off with the controller.
to turn the car on..you gotta hit the ignition button and the car goes "vrooom, vroom,vroom" lol
the controller is like a game pad controller...a big red button that you can push in 6 directions.
the car is pretty darn quick too for it's size...first mod, im gonna replace the single N 1.5v cell with 2 1.2v nimh...  they should fit perfectly.
and all this for only 9.99 at toys are us.

I gotta to agree, that body is way past ugly. But the chassis is quite interesting. Doesn't look like anything is interchangable or upgradable.

Clint, two 1.2v cells do fit perfectly you might have to put a small piece of foil or brass on the pos. end to make the battery touch. But it does FLY with two cells, the engine sound is even louder lol!
