    International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology (IJMET) Volume 6, Issue 8, Aug 2015, pp. 01-11, Article ID: IJMET_06_08_001 Available online at http://iaeme.com/Home/issue/IJMET?Volume=6&Issue=8 ISSN Print: 0976-6340 and ISSN Online: 0976-6359 © IAEME Publication ___________________________________________________________________________ DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF RADIO CONTROLLED CAR Keshav Jha, Sai Phanindra Dinesh Kakarlamudi, Bharath Konduru, Mukesh Reddy Vadala, Shravani Rallapati, Sonu Gupta and Chanikya Virugadinla Department of Mechanical Engineering, JNTUH College of Engineering, Kukatpally, Hyderabad, 500085 ABSTRACT Radio controlled (or R/C) cars are battery/gas-powered model cars or trucks that can be controlled from a distance using a specialized transmitter or remote. This Radio controlled system is adopted in many vehicles like cars, boats, planes, and even helicopters and scale railway locomotives. Different types of radio controlled cars like Gasoline, nitro-methanol and electric cars exist, which are designed to be run both on and off-road. "Gas" cars traditionally use petrol (gasoline), though many hobbyists run 'nitro' cars, using a mixture of methanol, nitro methane and oil, to get their power. Among these nitro cars, there exists different types of models based on scales like 1/8 off road nitro buggy, 1/16 nitro-t Truggy, 1/16 nitro racing buggy, 1/10 nitro buggy cars etc. Mostly these car are used for participating in racing competitions held in different college technical fests with the event names like MINI-GP, GRAND PRIX, FIRE AND ICE etc. Here, we have designed and fabricated a 1/8 off road nitro buggy car to participate in the MINI GP event OF BITS Hyderabad technical fest, FIRE and ICE event of IIT Madras technical fest and in many more competitions.
