Who said toys are for children? Bring out that child in you by gifting yourself a ‘big boy’ toy. While the festive season is around, why not use the excuse spoil yourself with some remote controlled toys? Yes, we mean it. Remote controlled toys are not meant only for children. There are millions of older teens to young men and elders who are fascinated with the world of remote controlled toys and what they can do today. Gone are the days when remote controlled toys such as cars and planes could simply move around. Now is the era of intelligent RC toys that can do more than just move, play some fancy sounds and so aerobatics, just like the real deal. Remote controlled toys have evolved. Thanks to decreasing prices and reducing sizes of electronics, the small replicas can do almost what the real thing can.
Drones are the talk of the era, and these miniature robots can do more than what they were thought of. Drones can now fly better, be autonomous, and also work smarter. While drones have four rotors, they can fly for shorter period as compared to dual rotor planes and helicopters. On the other hand RC cars are more rugged and can tread over almost-impossible roads.
RC cars are available all around the world. While many are priced high for the real quality ones, you can see most of them available from China, which can give you quality, within your budget. However, shipping is the only area where one would have to take care of.
The website, RC Moment is offering some mind blowing deals on their RC gear. The website offers a range of RC-based toys and gadgets that vary from drones and helicopters to planes and cars. Some of these also equipped with GPS, autonomous intelligence, voice activation and cameras. You also have options to purchase spare parts in case you need to build your own RC devices or replace worn out components on your existing one. And what is even more exciting is that shipping the same to India is free.
Note: While shipping could be cheap for some countries, customs duty and local taxes could be bothersome, apart from legal rules with regards to remote controlled toys.
So what are you waiting for? Grab on your equipment (your PC mouse) and drop your desired RC cars into the shopping cart. Here are some awesome deals that could help you get started.
