The History of Radio Control.

I thought I'd start this blog about "fully sick RC" stuff, on the history of radio control vehicles and where it all began.....

Like a lot of new technology, especially technology that can be used in war. The armed forces of the world developed it, to become a weapon. Notably the Germans during WWII, on their missile programs followed by the allies. Check out Project Aphrodite for an interesting read.

The first radio control vehicle was a boat. Invented by one of the greatest engineers of all time, Nikola Tesla. That used it to entertain an amazed audience that thought they controlled it.

It wasn't until the 1950's that radio control was introduced into the general market. Which has developed as fast as the computer chip. Enabling you and I to fly and drive our RC vehicles and for the military to fly and drive theirs.

As a result of the invention of Radio Control, we can have freedom and feel the freedom when we do that "fully sick" barrel roll with our RC Mustang.
