  2. Radio-controlled car - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-controlled_car

    Radio-controlled cars, or RC cars for short, [1] are miniature vehicles (cars, vans, buses, buggies, etc.) controlled via radio.. Nitro powered models use glow plug engines, small internal combustion engines fuelled by a special mixture of nitromethane, methanol, and oil (in most cases a blend of castor oil and synthetic oil).

  3. Radio-controlled model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-controlled_model

    A radio-controlled car is a powered model car driven from a distance. Gasoline, nitro-methanol and electric cars exist, designed to be run both on and off-road. "Gas" cars traditionally use petrol (gasoline), though many hobbyists run 'nitro' cars, using a mixture of methanol and nitromethane, to get their power.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cox_Models

    In the 1950s and 1960s until recently, Cox has produced a line of hobby-oriented models of cars, airplanes, and other vehicles. The most noted are the .049 cubic-inch displacement glow fuel powered models, controlled by line (Control Line) or by radio (Radio Control).

  5. Nitro engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitro_engine

    A nitro engine generally refers to an engine powered with a fuel that contains some portion (usually between 10% and 40%) of nitromethane mixed with methanol.Nitromethane is a highly combustible substance that is generally only used in very specifically designed engines found in Top Fuel drag racing and in miniature internal combustion engines in radio control, control line and free flight ...

  6. Model engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_engine

    The burning of the fuel/air mixture in a glow-plug model engine, which requires methanol for the glow plug to work in the first place, and sometimes with the use of nitromethane for greater power output and steadier idle, occurs due to the catalytic reaction of the methanol vapor to the presence of the platinum in the filament, thus causing the ...

  7. Glow fuel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glow_fuel

    Glow fuel is a fuel source used in model engines – generally the same or similar fuels can be used in model airplanes, helicopters, cars and boats. [1] Glow fuel can be burned by very simple two-stroke engines or by more complicated four-stroke engines, and these engines can provide impressive amounts of power for their very small size.
