A 1/18 model of Toyota Camry!

Kinja'd!!!

And this got me thinking:
Is it possible to turn this ordinary diecast to an RC?
I mean, it'll be an ultimate sleeper!

Anything is possible with time, and skill. shouldn't take more than 2 motors and some control circuits and batteries, then custom steering rack and axles.

Well, i guess that will be my new weekend project!

*altough if i can't do the costum steering wheels i think i'll just mount the body on an existing rc chassis and call it a day.

Yeah that's probably the best way to go if you find one that fits. If you had access to a 3d printer it might be easy to build the steering rack but otherwise getting it right would be difficult.

Well, i think there's a diecast for almost every car, right?
What car did you have?

Well, i think Camry is about the same size of an C-Class, right?

And i don't have any access to 3D Printers..

I don't own one just yet, but I'm looking for a Mazda MX-6 model.

A Camry model? Perhaps its 1/18th as bor-nope. It's still pretty boring. It didn't work.
