Remote control cars and trucks are powered models that recreate the looks of full-size vehicles in miniature. They’re also known as radio control cars or RC cars. You control their speed and steering using a cordless, hand-held radio transmitter. Compared to the toy cars, these are stronger, faster, more durable, and more realistic.
The Indy Admirals are a model boat hobby club. Admirals club members build and operate scale merchant ships, pleasure craft, work boats, military ships, sailboats, and just about anything that floats or submerges (in the case of submarine models). Many boats are built from kits and some are scratch-built from plans and photographs. The models are powered by electric motors, steam engines, or wind power in the case of sailboats.
