It has held up ok but it is kind of delicate. don't fill bottle over 1/3 full or it will spit because it sits sideways. 1/3 will give You the full run time before running out of water in the boiler anyway. I also glued a nut on the frame where the screw adjusts fuel because it can skew and not work right with the thin metal it goes through.
goldslinger Thanks for the advice on the fuel line modification. I have ordered the model from the manufacturer in Germany and should have it in about 2 months. I would really like to see the modification to the fuel line. I was planning on getting clear Hitec micro servos for it as well.
Im curious to know if a steam rc car has better run time then a standard battery
It is wonderful
Wow, best rc car ever!!!! Soo cool!!
Thank You, I agree. Lots of fun!
Thanks for sharing this model. I wanted to get one however they are sold out. Has it held up ok?
