Spotted this little radio controlled go-kart in my local charity shop for £1. No transmitter with it, but I took it home, sorted out a suitable charger and found it worked fine with my old 27MHz transmitter so I am really pleased with it. Obviously no good as a toy for a child without a suitable transmitter or charger, but for me it meets my gold standard. I am confident my grandsons will be pleased to play with it when they visit. Note: I suspect the charger I am using may be overcharging the toy so I ensure I keep an eye on it while it is charging and only charge for a short period.

OK, I enjoy them too. If anybody else likes them, that is a bonus. I like to keep my work as simple and basic as possible so that it can be copied easily and improved by anybody who wants to try themselves. I recycle or repurpose items rather than buy new and when I do buy I like to keep it cheap. https://www.youtube.com/user/GrandadIsAnOldMan
