These Things are too Big

these things are neat and all but I think they are simply too close to real size rc cars to be that special. You can't really buzz around your kitchen floor too well either. I wish RS would have embraced the 1:43 scale like the toys r us superslicks. It seems they could have all the same features in a smaller car.

Since they've already got the Zip Zaps, they probably wanted to make it a large enough difference between the two. Just my .02 on it.

ya i know but it seems pointless to have 1:64 scale when its pratically as large as most common rc vehicles. I think the 1:43 size is just big enough to allow the same advanced features while preserving the appeal of micro rc.

no it's much smaller than most more common ones i can't remember ever fitting a larger scale r/c in my pocket as nicely as a 1:64 does
