Radio Control Car Racer | May 2011

Reviews
36 Losi 810
The new 810 from Losi looks
like another buggy, but with a
lightweight set-up and 3.4cc
engine, it offers fantastic power
to weight?
44 HPI Cup Racer
Scale realism and a competition
inspired chassis! It all seems
too good to be true. Racer lifts
the lid on the HPI Cup Racer
to see if it all adds up to the
perfect ten.
58 JQ Products THE Car
After many years of had work
designing and looking for a
manufacturer to produce his
own car, Joseph Quagraine has
finally achieved his goal with
THE Car. With his own thinking
on key areas and much hype
surrounding testing and its
release, Racer gets an in-depth
look at JQ?s first 1:8 buggy.
70 Tamiya Avante 2011
There are few RC cars that can
claim such legendary status
as the 1988 Tamiya Avante.
A technical marvel, yet also
stunningly beautiful, but can it
really be back?
78 Associated B44.1 FT
The B44.1 has not just had a
make over in the looks
department as upon closer
inspection, there are many
small, but not insignificant
changes made to the Associated
4WD platform.
96 Traxxas Ken Block
Gymkhana
What happens when you cross
one of motorsport?s most
extrovert and colourful stars
with one of RC?s most
innovative companies? The
answer is a Ken Block replica
that almost fits in your pocket.

Features
14 Short Course Set-Up
With SC rules allowing the use
of 550-size motors in 4WD

30
Serpent Success
After winning the BRCA National
Championship three times in a
row, we had to find out more

52
Nuremberg Revisited

second of our two-part review
from the 2011 Nuremberg Toy
Fair.
