Remote Control Toys – More Popular Than Ever
Remote Control Toys Great Gifts for Kids Age 5 to 105
Do you find yourself waiting for your kids to go to bed so you can play with their remote control toys? You are definitely not alone! Technology and design have come a long way in the toy business since you were a kid. Now there are some really cool toys for children that are no doubt on your own holiday wish list secretly, of course. These battery-operated marvels may have a minimum age requirement on their packaging for operation, but you typically will not see a maximum age limit.
The size and model of your RC toys typically dictates the type of power needed to operate them. Smaller toys typically use double or even triple A batteries for both the remote as well as the vehicle itself. As the size of the toy gets bigger, so does the battery size.
Rechargeable batteries are more popular than the disposable options for a major obvious reason money. While remote control toys with built-in rechargeable batteries or removable rechargeable battery packs may be a little more expensive, they are actually much cheaper to operate in the long run. Plus, the rechargeable options are more convenient and often hold enough power for hours and hours of play time. When you shop for your remote power options, look for lithium polymer batteries as this type typically holds a charge for a longer period of time over the nickel and cadmium-based options.
A Plethora of Choices
RC toys come in countless varieties so that you can easily find your favorite vehicle type. Are you enamored by flying machines? You can find helicopters, fighter jets, cessnas, blimps and even alien spacecraft. For helicopters alone, you will literally find hundreds of models such as MASH rescue copters, Mini Rc helicopters, Apaches and Stingers.
Are you more of a land-based type of person? If so, be prepared to choose from a ton of motorcycles, all-terrain vehicles, monster trucks, race cars, dragsters, dune buggies and more. Do you have a favorite car or truck model? You can own your dream car or truck, even if it is a remote controlled one. Tanks are yet another popular option, especially if you like military vehicles.
You can also take to the water with remote controlled crafts such as navy ships like aircraft carriers or racing boats, air boats, hover crafts, cabin cruisers and even jet skis. Alternate remote control options include animals and insects from dogs and mice to snakes and tarantulas. You can even find toys that seem unworldly such as robots, androids and aliens.
Finding something in common with your kids these days is easy, particularly when you look to remote control toys. There is something about them that when in the hands of an adult, just brings out the inner child. And the good news is that these toys are affordable enough that you do not have to share. You can get RC toys for your children as well as yourself.
