Turbo Racing C73 1:76 RC Car - Full proportional control with lights too!

[@GeezerGramps]

I have the 1:76 Mini Cooper & my 3 yr old great grand daughter loves to drive it. I did have to make a cover so she couldn’t play with the knobs. She is always supervised when she’s playing with it.

Haha I had to buy a few and we’re having a lot of fun with them

I've owned the 1:1 scale version of this car in the dark grey for nearly 20 years ever since the first Fast and Furious. The model is tempting too.

If you have a full sized Supra then you are a lucky chap! :D

[@jamesemery1]

Lol. When you showed this to your patreons I knew there would a video soon. nice little car. Stay safe Lee.

[@Painless360]

You guys are the reason for the video. There was interest!! Happy Driving!

TBS added FPV to it about a year ago :) They now sell Ultra tiny FPV camera for this reason (size is 5x5mm)

[@frankyflowers]

I think I just found my combined birthday+christmas present to myself :) I did have a lot of fun playing with the cheap Bit Char-G clones when that car originally came out, the main thing that I felt was missing from them was the proportional control. It looks like they put the extra blank shells in so you can customise them yourself with paint/stickers.

Hi Mr. P Great video on the turbo racing C73 race car. I had a line of ZipZag racing cars from Radio Shake, I used to love playing with my kids with them. Thanks again for the video and information

[@Terry_Fritz]

Nice change from flying toys. 👍

[@filiped7298]

Nice indoor fun.

[@MCsCreations]

Pretty amazing little car, Lee! 😃 And you know what? A couple of sawhorses, a plywood sheet... Some chalk to draw the track and a few friends... That could be a LOT of fun! 😃 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@vince086]

There's also a Mini Cooper version very similar to this. Been tempted as it would make a nice little toy.

How to change the light colors

[@Painless360]

Not sure you can without replacing the LEDs on the model...

[@runpuppyfpv5744]

That os pretty cool

[@EnjoyLifeLikeaKid]

very cool

[@Powershotknecht]

cool

[@YoelDiamante]

What’s the meaning of “full proportional / steering?”

[@Painless360]

It has analogue steering. Some of these little cars only have three steering positions... Happy flying

[@M0rdH0rst]

You could even drive it on a Hot Wheels track to pass stairs :)

[@rustyxquad4609]

Is the wheel track wide enough to fit on Thomas the Tank Engine wooden tracks?

[@Painless360]

How wide is the track?

[@rustyxquad4609]

@@Painless360 G’day Lee, the track grooves are 3 mm deep, 6 mm wide and have 19/20 mm between them. In Imperial, the grooves an eighth of an inch deep, a quarter of an inch wide and with three quarters of an inch between them. The car size is: 60*24*11mm so it must be pretty close to fitting.

Way cute.
