RC truck

[steve50]

my lovely Mrs has today taken delivery of a Tamiya radio controlled truck minus the controller and charger but for the princely sum of £3 + £3 delivery it is quite a bargain, these trucks retail at over £200 and we have found a model shop locally that can supply a replacement controller and charger at reasonable cost, we are going to have one very happy little boy on our hands.

Ooooh yeah.

I remember the original release of the Clod....4 wheel steering innit? or at least it was.

With the modern brushless motors in I bet that shifts.

Nice one Dad.

Well........we're going to share it

I bet he hasn't even got any kids.

I have but they're all grown up so we "borrowed" one (fostered with legal guardianship) , he's now four and a half year old and is a little tearaway
