20 Remote-Controlled Car Innovations

From RC Supercars to Virtual Reality Vehicle Toys

— January 28, 2015 — Life-Stages
These remote-controlled car innovations range from RC supercars to virtual reality toys that are changing the way that kids learn and play. While many of us grew up with more traditional toys, today's remote-controlled cars are more sophisticated and entertaining than ever.

Standouts from this list include iPhone-controlled toys that are powered by a simple smartphone app along with motorized LEGO machines that will appeal to fans of the nostalgic building block toy sets.

Other favorites from this cluster include all-terrain remote-controlled cars that are designed to withstand bumps, scratches and changing weather conditions. In addition to being used as toys, these remote-controlled devices will appeal to grown-up nerds with an appreciation for automated and tech-infused toys.
