…we don’t stop playing because we get old;
we get old because we stop playing.

Now we’re talking - I have to get myself one of these! Here’s the coolest toy yet. A full size, fully functional remote control Hummer H3.

Engineer Dr. James Brighton, of Cranfield Universit, built this monstrosity. The project took about one month, using a robotic system for the steering, breaks, throttle and gears. In the back, there are actuators and controllers, which respond to a Futaba unit.

The car handles and responds just like it would if you were sitting behind the wheel, and to a seasoned RC operator this can be A LOT of fun.

You won’t find this at your local hobby shop, that’s for sure!

Here are some pictures and videos this amazing remote controlled car:
